Great chart as a guideline for lower voltage setup's but not much help as I'm looking at going HV.

I guess all I really want to know is, is there any draw backs to going HV.
I realize lower volt setups are tried and true and probably even a few buck$ less, but in an effort to put less stress on these cells wouldn't a High Voltage setup be the way to go?
