I think not.
The
GS Yuasa site story on 787 batteries points to GS Yuasa parts LVP10 and LVP65.
GS Yuasa "spec sheets" for the LVP10/65 appear to match characteristics at hand here.
The
MSDS posted by GS Yuasa for LVP65 expressly specifies that it is Lithium cobalt dioxide/carbon.
Many, many of the stories on this topic assert that they are Lithium cobalt (as did Machaca in the post starting this thread).
Any more evidence than a recollection of training notes? I certainly don't want to help propagate an error, but I'm not yet convinced of my error here.
