Lightweight Batteries
Anyone have any experience with AntiGravity Lithium Batteries? Thinking about picking one up to drop some weight out of the ZLE for the track.

I first bought a 30a Antigravity and then my current 60a. I don't have much faith in my alternator.

You guys are running lithium batteries on these vehicles without any additional mods to support it?
Not a smartass question, a legit one. I'm genuinely curious, that may be one of my next mods coming up.

Most lithium batteries are only.capable of withstanding an average of 100 amp draws with a burst of 150-200 amps at best though. That's the only part that worries me.

What battery did you use? The Antigravity 60a? It's been a while since I shopped for lithiums, but I want to re- spec it out and see what it's working with.

Whoo! The cheapest I found that for was around $680. Pricey little buggers aren't they?!

The only downside is the cost. I run those on my bikes which go long periods unused (i'm too cheap to put in the cars)
