In 47 years of motorcycling, I've never been stranded by a dead battery. I use a lead-acid and more recently an AGM battery and for the 8+ years I get out of them, I cannot really complain.

Similar for me, 50 years riding going strong. I have no use for re-start either. I get 10+ years out of these but sounds like you are getting 8 so not much better. These are insanely light and small compared to AGM and wet batteries. Matters a lot to me, but not for everyone.

@@jameshisself7375 I see no point to spending more for a battery unless I get more life out of them. So if it costs 50%:more, I should get 50% more life out of them, so 15 years compared to 10 years. For everyday use, weight is not an issue. Motorcycle batteries are small to start with, so what am I saving, a few pounds. In the end people can spend their money as they please. I just would not spend $1300 on an AntiGravity battery when I can get an AGM for under $200 for my car.

A note about the remote re-start by applying voltage. Without doing anything else you can just attempt a bump start if you know how to do that. It won't start but the charging system will briefly apply 12 volts to the terminals when you do this and this will activate the re-start feature. Then just hit the starter button and it will start as normal. I myself have used this and I know many others who have as well.

I live in Quebec, Canada, where the December/January freezing temperatures average 15 degrees Celsius below zero. With a lead-acid battery I can leave the battery in the motorcycle for the 6 months of winter and connect-it to my intelligent lead-acid charger with the dongle all winter long. Can I do this with an Antigravity RE-START Lithium battery or do I need to remove the battery and bring it inside the house where it is warmer for these months and charge-it there?

Why won’t the battery recharge? The bike master charger just shows a green power light … no charging red and no green fully charged…. Nothing seems to be happening. Could the battery be defective?

@AntigravityBatteries2 жыл бұрын
Well not entirely... you should use a modern Lithium Stand alone Charger, when using a charger. A stand alone Lithium Charger does not charge like a stand alone lead/acid charger, so the modern lead acid chargers have a de-sulfate mode that spikes voltage to clean sulfation the lead plates.. but Lithium does not sulfate so putting a lead acid charger on the Lithium isn't good. But in the bikes it works fine since bikes don't have a "sulfation" mode when charging...

If I’m replacing a lead acid battery with a lithium does the previous lead acid charging system in my vehicle still work?
@AntigravityBatteries2 жыл бұрын
Absolutely YES, but with the caveat that if you have a Pre 1990s vehicle make sure the Charging system is in good working order. The reason is because Pre-1990 many charging system voltage regulators were mechanical on most bikes and they can go bad and allow for high voltage and spike over-voltage to the battery. So check for that if you have an very old bike... the 90s bikes are over 30 years old now, and those voltage regulators went bad. Nowadays it solid state voltage regulator that rarely go bad, so you good with any modern bike.

at 11:08... you say to remotely wake up the battery for restart feature to work, just attach a 12 volt source to it for a second. Now just think about what you said........ Really?? So I buy a battery that has a restart feature, but if I can't get to the battery I need a 12 volt source to put it in re-start mode. Well now,.... if that is the case, doesn't that make the purchase of this battery a big waste of money? If I need another 12 volt source, at that point I might as well just jump start it like a regular battery. Isn't the purpose of this battery NOT to need another 12 volt source to get you going again? So the guy who is in middle of nowhere can't restart his bike, car ATV, whatever if he is by himself. Hmmm, someone at Antigravity and Powersports has a case of Corporate stupidity. Design a damm key fob for it, as this method is beyond stupid that you recommend. You had a key fob , but had issues with it, and this was the engineer's answer?!? Time to get a new engineer.

Its not a perfect solution, but for most they are loving the RE-START and understand what the limitations are. So you may have to think of a way to access the battery, or bring a tool if your riding a bike with difficult battery access. Like a Ducati Monster the battery is under the tank. In fact many people have made creative ways to get the 12v source to the battery, like with using some Triple A batteries. But there is much more to consider here, like the cost of the battery also. Yes we can put more bells and whistles on it but at a cost that would have most people not even looking at the products. So there is a trade off. I can assure you we do not suffer from Corporate stupidity... we have WIRELESS jump starting on the Lithium Auto Batteries we make, but that technology would cause the Motorcycle batteries to get way to expensive.

Honestly, I don't get all the fuss about not being able to reach the Restart button... In my book, that button is just a bonus feature. The most important part is the OVER-DISCHARGE cutoff and battery saving enough juice for emergency situations. At least I know my battery isn't going to die if I accidentally leave the lights on, and I have a way of jump-starting the damn thing all on my own and without any additional power source. So what if I have to take off a couple of parts... On the flipside, with a conventional battery you still have to get to the battery AND you also need an additional power source to jump-start it. So if you don't have a jump pack or a buddy to jump you, tough luck, call a towing service. Am I right or am I right? So these batteries are still worth every penny if you ask me. Let's not forget that they are still among the lightest, if not THE lighest, and that that's why the rock!It's easy to talk about adding extra features, but when it comes to dishing out some extra cash for them, then everyone's crying about the price. I guess you can't make everybody happy. But nonetheless, great work and great products, Antigravity Batteries. Keep it up.

Guys, I am glad to have ruffled some feathers. I offered some ideas of how to circumvent the current issue about accessing that pesky restart button on the battery. Keep in mind of those cold and rainy days while you are stranded in the dark. Would it not be convenient to have the reset button on a 12" long wire with a stick my back that can be placed at a hidden but accessible location on the bike?. Of course, adding the restart option to your Blue tooth battery monitoring device will not only help your battery products sales, it certainly self promote purchasing both products as a set. I can certainly appreciate the passions, but ease of use and practicality can not be ignored....
