The speed difference is .5mph or less, you're not really going anywhere faster, just sucking the batteries down a lot quicker.Lithiums are well worth the upgrade in weight savings alone, plus they have a way longer lifespan, more stable voltage, etc. Really no downside at this point with how cheap they've gotten.</blockquote>
