It uses lithium iron phosphate cells and an onboard smart management system to protect against overcharge, overdischarge, short circuits and overheating. At roughly one-third the weight of comparable lead-acid units and rated for thousands of cycles, it’s aimed at riders and powersports owners who want reliable starting power and longer service life in a small package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this battery perform for starting motorcycles and ATVs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TPE battery delivers 220 CCA of cold cranking ability from a 12.8V LiFePO4 pack, giving consistent starts across a wide temperature range.
