Hey All,
Besides from the obvious increased risks of fire in the lithium batteries, is there any reason why i might not want to use one? The intent is to reduce weight from a lead acid battery and have a higher resistance to voltage drop when running up to 6500rpms. Also, space is pretty tight on the sidecar. Currently, the last track day, i saw voltage readings that went as low as 10.4v somehwere in between 5000-6000 revs. I have little experience in using lithium batteries but from what i can tell, the voltage remains higher than a lead acid under load. Current ignition circuit is points/coil with condensor on the Atlas outfit i'm running.
Looking forward to the replies,
