Light weight battery
- Thread starter line8
- Start date
Couple of us got magna sport lithium. 11lbs lighter. Is 420cca instead of 310cca. Starts instantly cold in -15c
firepower from WPS. you can cross reference your current battery to the li-on battery. comes with spacers too, to match sizes. on my 18 xf high country, i saved over 12 pounds. Ski
Shorai LFX27A3-BS12, 405 CCA, saves 11 lbs.
I've had the same battery in 3 different sleds and I think that it's probably 7-8 years old and still going strong. I will most likely buy another one when it finally gives up.

I used a Shorai LFX27A3-BS12 rated at 405 CCA. Fits in stock location on my 2020 MC M-8000. It includes shims to snug up the fit. Only used a few. The + terminal is on the PTO side which matches the stock battery. About 3.5 lbs. So far so good however haven't been in negative temps yet.
I thought i should give a little info on what I ended up doing to tie this one up. I removed the small car battery first.
I did a little internet researching and settled on
an EarthX 14C. Install wasn’t too bad but there was a small amount of wire moving around and a lot of foam material needed to make it fit right.
I rode it yesterday in low to mid 20’s temps and it cranked right over all day just like the oem.
