Title: EarthX ETX12A Battery - Any reviews? Post by dabid on 04/30/13 at 11:36:44 Hey everyone, Trying to get rid of my big stock battery. Going with either the Ballistic Evo2 8 cell, or the EarthX ETX12A The EarthX is a bit more expensive but is slightly more advanced in its charging (doesnt need a special charger, the ballistic one does) Let me know what you think if you are using either of these batteries. thanks |

Title: Re: EarthX ETX12A Battery - Any reviews? Post by Gyrobob on 04/30/13 at 15:07:14 Mine is installed on an FJR-1300 and it works well. I will be buying two more,... one for the RYCA CS-1, and one for a gyrocopter. |

Title: Re: EarthX ETX12A Battery - Any reviews? Post by dabid on 05/01/13 at 05:05:54 well I purchased the EarthX over the Ballistic. After more research, it seems a better option to get the EarthX as I would eventually need to spend another $70 on the ballistic for their special charger. That would end up making the Ballistic more expensive than the EarthX. darn battery took a nice chunk out of my bank account...err, visa. But I am shaving off about 9 lbs and the new battery is less than half the size. Looking forward to it. |

their website states the weight at 1.67 lbs (0.76 kg) I have not weighed my stock battery, but I can only guess that bad boy is at least 10-12 lbs. |

Title: Re: EarthX ETX12A Battery - Any reviews? Post by perajani on 05/15/13 at 12:31:36 Have been using it couple of weeks now... everything is working fine. Some time, when needing a little more "starting" after cold night, it hesitate for 0,5 sec if it is going down.... but no... it has worked well. |

Mine does that too. Sometimes when cold it hesitates for a millisecond,turns slowly then fires up. The CCA are a little low but to increase the CCA you need to go up in Batt size. I hope it copes with the 97mm high comp piston i'm putting in. :-[ |

Post by BalingWire on 06/28/14 at 05:59:40 Has anybody considered the Battery Tender brand lithium batteries? http://sepbatteries.com/battery-tender-btl14a240c-lithium-iron-phosphate-battery http://sepbatteries.com/battery-tender-7-9a-lithium-iron-phosphate-battery Do they have the same overcharge and cell-balancing technology as the EarthX batteries? :-? |
