Changing 12v Battery

I think we'll soon be discussing lithium 12V batteries like Antigravity and Optima Orange Top as prices begin to fall. They both have built in management systems shut down automatically when they become discharged, preserving enough charge to allow a self jump/remote restart, which can also be monitored on a phone app. The Antigravity has 40AH and 60 AH configurations, while the Optima is currently 45AH. The lithium batteries also discharge more slowly and recharge faster than lead acid/AGM. For those in cold areas Antigravity specs storage to about -4F and the Optima -20F.
And of course just like with deep cycle AGMs, battery manufacturers confirm compatibility with ordinary, OEM vehicle charging systems, with no modifications needed!
Currently these batteries are popular with the sports car crowd that does not daily their cars, but it's likely their use will continue to expand.
Had a Anti-Gravity on my Harley, the little button on it was great when I let it run down, enough juice to start it after pushing in the button. Watching price now.
