kBT should be in the same units as your potentials in LAMMPS, so if the
energy unit is kcal/mol, it should be in kcal/mol.

csg_boltzmann has gromacs units hard-codes (see
https://github.com/votca/csg/issues/155), so you will have to manually
convert energies, distances and angles as needed. Bonds are in nm and
angles are in Radians.
