    Interesting that the best response the distributor felt he could make, had nothing to do with motorcycles.

    Drew thinks this is a reply from 'ultrabatt' to his post which claims Shorai is better.

    Some before and after photos of an Ultrabatt installation in a Panigale. Fits very nicely, saves 1.6Kg and will probably last the life of this bike.

    Some before and after photos of an Ultrabatt installation in a Moto Guzzi Magni....beautiful bike!

    This bike came in with a stuffed battery, rough running and an intermittent fault that caused the engine to cut out intermittently with no warning.

    I put the bike on the ignition scope and some of the problems were immediately visible and identifiable.

    Replaced some of the wiring in the primary ignition loom, fitted two matched Nology coils, some FastBikeGear UltraRace 8mm silicon solid copper core race leads and an Ultrabatt modular PowerBlade Lithium battery. Bike runs sweetly now and sounds epic. A thing of beauty!

    Bike was fitted with a 1 year old Motobatt that was stuffed. Battery reconditioner indicated it had sulphated up probably due to the bike not being run often enough. Obviously lithium batteries have no nasty sulphuric acid and don't suffer from sulphation or self discharge if sitting unused. The replacement Lithium battery will hold a starting charge up to one year so it shouldn't be an issue now if this bike is not run often.

    Saved 4.5Kgs of weight and increased nominal Cranking amps from 200 to 270 for brisker starting!

    As you can see when I tried to weigh the Motobatt it exceeded the maximum weight of my scales so we looked up the weight of the Motobatt (5.5kgs) on the Internet.

    Just a heads up. We are going to be running a special on Ultrabatt lithium batteries next month. We are going to set aside a number of batteries at a VERY special price and it will be first in first served. We haven't confirmed how many we will allocate to the special promotion but thinking probably be just the first 100 batteries sold in August. To get the promotional pricing we will ask that you place the 100mm sticker that we will supply with each battery in the promotion somewhere clearly visible on your bike. These lithium batteries are less than 1/4 of the weight of the battery they replace and approximately half the size. These are the same Dutch built lithium batteries used by some of the top GP teams and they include a cell balancing BMS and an internal replaceable safety fuse (in case you ever short your battery).

    Just in time to compliment our massive Ultrabatt discount promotion next month we have just added a new $50 Lithium battery charger to our product range. It is suitable for use on all brands of second and third generation Lithium batteries (that have inbuilt BMS circuits, it is not suitable for legacy first generation lithium batteries that do not have an inbuilt BMS circuit.)

    One of the clever cost savings features of modern lithium batteries like the Ultrabatt lithium batteries is that because they have the BMS cell balancing charging circuit actually built in to the battery they can be charged with a simple and cheap Lithium battery charger....and of course having the BMS cell balancing charging circuit built into the battery also means that when it is being by your bikes charging circuit it is always getting a proper cell balancing charge that lithium batteries need to achieve a 10 year target lifespan.

    You can order these new chargers on line here.

    Almost good timing but my lips have to stay sealed fon details.....but I can say that Ultrabatt will be announcing an expanded product range in about 4 weeks time. One of the new products is a bit left field.

    Yes two.

    Ultrabatt are now shipping a 6V version of the Ultrabatt modular PowerBlade battery system.

    Just like the 12 Volt PowerBlades each 6 V PowerBlade has an internal user replaceable safety fuse ....
    .....and an integrated Battery Management System that optimises your bikes lead acid battery charging system into one that has the ideal charging characteristics for a lithium battery including providing a balance charge to each cell in each Power Blade.

    Again just like the 12 volt PowerBlades you can snap together as many 6 Volt PowerBlades as you like to make whatever capacity battery you need.

    Specifications for each PowerBlade:
    6V

    12Ah PbEv (lead acid equivalent)
    180CCA PbEv
    240PCA Pulse Cranking Amps (measured extended 10 second starting cycle)

    I will post on the other new product in a separate post to avoid confusion.

    At this stage we are gauging interest in the market requirement for 6V motorcycle batteries before deciding how many of these we should include in our next order from Ultrabatt.
