Rather than lithium ion I'd use AGM batteries. I had four of them in my motor home for about 8 years when I was on the road fulltime. They cost about twice as much as a flooded lead acid but are safe enough to ship by air etc. they last a long time, and are perfect for a "green" solution. I charged mine with 350 watts do solar panels on my RV and could boondocked for several weeks without running my Genset. AGMs make a great addition to a shack. They can live inside your house without worry and you have none of the problems associated with lithium ion. My k3 ran just fine off of my solar panels, AGMs and inverter when I was on the road.
