Lithium Motorcycle Battery Charger - How it can maximise your battery performance!
As a biker with a Lithium-ion (12V LiFePO4) battery powered motorcycle, you’ll already understand some of the significant advantages a lithium battery can offer – lighter weight for improved handling, greater efficiency with faster charging and a longer lifespan than many traditional lead-acid counterparts. In fact, lithium batteries offer up to 2,000 charge cycles compared to 300-500 charge cycles from a lead-acid battery, and weigh up to 60% less - so it’s easy to see why the use of Lithium batteries are on the rise in all motor vehicles.
And it’s not just about efficiency and cost-saving, fewer battery replacements mean less waste and greener motoring.
So, whether you’re a regular rider or a weekend adventurer, having a good understanding of the advantages and knowing how to properly maintain a lithium battery can significantly improve your motorbike’s performance, ensuring you get a reliable ride every time you start it up.
Key to maintaining your lithium battery’s health, is regularly using the right charger, and CTEK has a range of products to keep your battery at peak performance.
