Lithium ion battery for the Hellcat

[2ndAmend]

Sorry for the ignorant question:

What do you need to do differently with a LIon battery to maintain it? Do you use the same charger? Same float/trickle charger? Is it ok to leave the float charger on all winter?

 

[2ndgen]

There are Lithium-specific chargers/tenders that you should use. If the battery has its own BMS circuit then a standard charger/maintainer should suffice.

My Walmart battery is going strong. Battery has been disconnected for over a month. Car sits all the time. Not a bad replacement

You only say that because you haven't seen mine.

That one inspires a lot of confidence…”Rechargeable Car Starter Battery”. I guess their gasoline is called “Car Bang Bang Juice”.

Good thread to keep going. Since my dad bought a T/A he wants it faster. Looking through here on batteries and going on amazon and it looks like a lot more options and cheaper prices. Could barely get one under $400 a few years ago

@Taxinator posted the battery he bought and @catdad @DGatzby and is still under $270 Stock demensions and weighs 20 lbs. The Stock battery is 44 lbs.
