I drive my car maybe once a week and cold starts are extremely strong each time.
Regarding battery life - from AG's website:
SoC chart here: https://octopusasia.com/battery-soc-to-voltage-chart/
As I haven't seen it drop below 13.25V yet, I'm probably somewhere around 80% state of charge after a week - so extrapolating out, I would probably need to drive the car (or have it charged) at least once a month, which isn't an issue.
Oh, and the weight savings of the 40AH is pretty nice as well.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the new battery. Hopefully the info above is useful for those thinking about getting a smaller than OEM capacity lithium battery. |
Appreciate the review, the Antigravity Battery Monitors are a pretty neat tool to have - I even use them on my other vehicles and motorcycle.
