And they are very up front about the properties of the battery, i.e. high cranking power but limited capacity (amp-hours). Very good explanation of what they are good for and what they are not, right below the description on their site.

"Motobatt Pro Lithium batteries are a high performance racing battery designed to produce high cranking currents for short burst periods. Lithium starting batteries generally lack Amp Hour capacity and are not suitable for applications where high power loads are placed on the battery. Stereo systems, Grip and clothing heaters, winches, light bars etc. all draw excess loads and lithium starting batteries are not designed to cope with these loads. Always thoroughly assess the power requirements of your machine with all loads on with an experienced technician before making a decision to use a Lithium battery."

Whenever I start looking for a replacement for my lead - acid battery. I never seem to be able to find a website which specifies the physical dimensions of their lithium ion batteries. The battery I use, is very small.
