Product details
In use, this LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) starting battery directly replaces the lead-acid battery of a motorcycle or scooter, in standard YTX formats. Much lighter than lead (≈ 1.3 kg), it is maintenance-free (no liquid to add) and features an integrated protection card (BMS) against overcharge and deep discharge. LiFePO4 delivers high starting current and performs well in cold conditions, ensuring a clean engine start. Crucial point: you must choose the reference that matches EXACTLY your original battery (size, capacity, and position of the +/− terminals). Several versions are offered: YTX5L-BS (5 Ah), YTX7L-BS and YTX7A-BS (7 Ah), YTX9-BS and YTX9A-BS (9 Ah), each with its own dimensions. Flame-retardant ABS casing.
