My bet is it is coming from Yakbuddy but they don't show it on their site yet, www.yakbuddy.com

I've never seen that but I can tell you I run a Ion Lithium on my yak. They are light, compact and very powerful. I use a 12v 24amp battery and it weights 3lbs. That same battery in a regular battery would be 15+ lbs

Thanks for sharing Yea but it depends of how many amps per hour your alectronics/lighting are using vs. what they were using......that makes a HUGE difference in these small batteries.

I have a couple of lithium battery packs in my life. That looks very much like one of the drill pack conversions. If you have a small FF and an extra battery or two it would work fine. I think it would be a great solution for LED running lights that don't draw much.
You can make a couple of simple mods (connectors only) to a cheap 12v drill pack and charger and put a similar pack together quite easily.
If you are running a SI you will need more serious amperage.
I cannibalized a lithium pack from an electric bike and can run my Humminbird si ( read "power hog") 16 hours with running lights and usb phone charger hooked up. Entire package is about 5 lbs.
