The C682 12.8V 16Ah Lithium Ion Racing Battery is a great choice for street/strip vehicles wanting to shed some battery weight. The C682 is alternator compatible (100A/14.4V max) and weighs only 5.5 lbs. The outside dimensions of 7.16" L x 3.05" W x 6.63" T make it compact and easy to install in a lot of locations.
When you pick this battery up for the first time, you will ask yourself, "Will this really start my engine?" Absolutely! This C682 12V 16Ah Lithium Ion Racing Battery is designed for engine starting and it can be used with alternators up to 100A (14.4V max). It is a great choice for the competitor who demands a high cranking power in a small package. How much crank performance? It is rated 680A Pulse Hot Crank Amps, more that enough to start V8 engines with ease. Imagine saving 25~35 pounds in one easy battery swap!
Cell balancing is built inside the battery so no special chargers are necessary. Any AGM or gel battery compatible charger will work. (14.4V max, 13.5V max float voltage.)
The C682 12.8V 16Ah Lithium Ion Racing Battery can be connected in series for higher voltage (max 2 batteries in series for 24V total. Each battery must be charged separately.)
We recommend using a battery disconnect switch to isolate the battery when not in use to prevent parasitic loads on the car from over discharging the battery. Optionally, a battery maintainer can be used provided the maintenance voltage is 13.5V or less. Battery must remain above 11.0V at all times. See instructions for more details.
