No loss of weight as the flight endures.
Reductions of power and endurance (read: “climb and range”) as the batteries age.
Short circuits.
Battery leaks and fires.
Susceptibility to lightning damage.
Added weight to mitigate risk of lightning damage.
Electric-powered compressors for pressurization and cabin heat.

It’s a regular aeronautical Nirvana. :wink:
