I've been very interested in getting a lithium battery for the car to drop a signifiant amount of weight. I've held off because my AGM battery is in good health and a $1000 for a H6 size battery is a lot.
I know many forum members are big fans of a couple brands. After doing some evening research I decided to purchase a "budget" brand lithium battery. The specs are what I was looking for.
It claims to have an intelligent BMS, but it's not likely to be on par with the top shelf brands. I will say that I work in an industry that uses Lithium batteries and the tech as well as pricing has
changed a lot in the past 2-3 years.
As you can see in the photos it's the Mighty Max H6. I paid $279.
I installed it and weighed both the old AGM battery and this new lithium.
Might Max H6 weighs 14 lbs
Duralast Platinum AGM is 48 lbs
34 lbs of weight savings for $279 seems pretty good to me.
I also like that it fits exactly like a standard battery and doesn't need a new bracket.
Lemme know what y'all think.
