What are people using for lightweight batteries?I used to run ballistic batteries in my turbo 4 strokes and had great luck with them
I have a 17 mtn cat 800 with estart abd would like to relpace and relocate the battery with s lightweight battery. It seems the Ballistic is no longer available

I've used Shorai with no issue, Gilberts has a new lithium power sports line coming & they are getting some more info.

I have a magnasport Lithium that I really like, and its very lite... had it in the sidewinder for a few seasons and now it's in the missus XM, and I now have a NOCO lithium in the sidewinder.

In my head
I now use the NOCO as well. Seems really well built with good protection system.

Used to run Earth X. They were really good and had great cranking power until I let them go dead a couple times. Once that happened they stopped working properly and eventually just died completely and wouldn’t take a charge.

Also noticed I had to crank them once quickly when it was cold to “wake up” the battery and wait 30 seconds to a minute then crank the sled. I would put one in a sled with a pull backup but wouldn’t put them in anything that relies solely on the battery.

That’s where I got mine, yes they are great to deal with and there are no cheaper lithium batteries out there
