LiFePO4 High-Performance Motorcycle Battery LFP5L-BS | 12V 4Ah 170CCA
The superior powerhouse for your ride
What LiFePO4 Motorcycle Batteries Deliver for Real-World Riding
Lead-acid batteries(AGM), developed in the 1980s, power nearly every gas vehicle's ignition. They're affordable and reliable – but have major drawbacks: heavy weight, toxic lead (environmental hazard), corrosive acid, limited recharge cycles, and high self-discharge. LiFePO4 batteries solve all these issues:
KEEP THE FEELING ALIVE
The thrill starts the moment you ride.
Superior Cranking Amps
Fires up the engine instantly—every time, even on cold mornings.
→ No sluggish cranking. No dreaded "click-click" sounds.
Strong and Stable Voltage Delivery
Maintains smooth idling, crisp throttle response, and headlights that stay bright—no matter the load.
→ Perfect for high-draw accessories and performance parts upgrades.
Ultra-Lightweight Design
No heavy lead plates or liquid electrolyte inside – reduces overall bike mass.
→ Improves handling, agility, and acceleration especially on super sport and dirt action bikes.
PLAY IN THE DIRT FOR LONGER
More rides, more miles, fewer limits.
Up to 30% Longer Runtime
→ Cycles to 80% Depth of Discharge (vs. 50% for AGM).
→ Maintains stable voltage longer.
→ 30% more usable power than AGM/Gel at same Ah rating.
Outlasts 3 Lead Batteries
→ Maintains peak performance for 5-10 years.
*AGM/Gel typically degrades noticeably after 12 months (lifespan: 2-3 years).*
Drain-Proof Resilience
Left your lights on? No big deal—recharges fully in minutes, no lasting damage.
Parked for months? It still starts like it ran yesterday. LiFePO4 holds charge for 1 year.
The show must go on...
Upgrade to the LiFePO4 Lithium Battery That Finally Delivers on Its Promise
Designed in Australia for Riders Who Demand Better
The LiFePO4 Revolution (2010s)
Early lithium-ion motorcycle batteries in the 2000s struggled with reliability. The arrival of lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) technology brought essential safety and significant performance upgrades:
- Safety-first design: Non-flammable and inherently stable chemistry
- Exceptional starting power: Delivers up to 3x the cranking amps of AGM/Gel batteries with the same capacity (Ah rating)
- All-weather performance: Operates reliably from -20°C to 60°C
- Long-term value: 2000+ cycles (up to 5x AGM/Gel battery lifespan)
Why Many Lithium Batteries Still Fail Riders
Common issues arise from generic manufacturing practices:
✘ Inferior cells and BMS: Leading to failures that unfairly undermine lithium technology’s reputation.
✘ Undersized capacity: Sacrificing durability and real-world runtime for misleading "ultra-lightweight" claims.
Our Engineering Response
Premium Cell Selection from World-Class Manufacturers
We choose top-tier high-performance LiFePO4 cells in durable steel casings, ensuring:
Maximum safety, exceptional vibration resistance, and consistent high-output performance ride after ride.
Expert Battery Assembly - Built to Last
Our batteries are built by a specialized manufacturer with over 20 years of powersports experience—not just another lithium packer:
✓ Intelligent BMS calibration to prevent nuisance tripping
✓ Rigorous vibration testing beyond industry standard
✓ True plug-and-play installation—installs like your OEM battery with no modifications needed
Optimized Battery Capacity for Real-World Riding
Thanks to LiFePO4’s high energy density, a 12V 2Ah lithium battery (e.g., SSB UltraLight ) can deliver cranking power comparable to a 12V 6Ah AGM battery (e.g., Yuasa YTZ7S).
However, we build our LiFePO4 batteries with at least 3Ah capacity (e.g., LFP4L), because ample capacity is essential for:
- Stronger, more reliable starts
- Extended runtime for electrical accessories
- Longer lifespan—resisting slow degradation over time
Need More Power? Our Ultra and Ultimate editions outperform all AGM and lithium competitors.
Engineered for riders who demand top-tier performance, including:
- Enhanced cranking for big twins (Harley-Davidson, Indian, etc.)
- Consistent high output for adventure bikes with auxiliary loads
- Heavy-duty performance in extreme riding conditions
The Next Generation Starts Now
Our LiFePO4 batteries represent years of innovation. Newly launched but built on proven technology, they deliver next-gen reliable performance. We continuously refine our products using rider feedback because we believe riders deserve batteries that work as hard as they do.

To Whom It May Concern:
The lithium battery landscape for motorcycles and powersports remains fragmented, with varying standards of quality. Selecting a truly premium battery demands prioritizing high-performance cells from specialist manufacturers for real-world reliability. Unfortunately, some assemblers may use inferior cells and generic BMS units, leading to failures that unfairly undermine lithium technology’s reputation.
Compounding this, pervasive marketing myths proliferate online, sometimes promoted by established brands. As a smaller industry participant, we offer these insights:
1. Prismatic/Pouch Cell Realities
Myth: "Prismatic cells offer superior cranking and 10 years life-spain in motorcycle batteries."
Reality: true prismatic cells (large-format) excel in energy storage batteries. compact pouch cells (often mislabeled as "prismatic") deliver lightweight power and high cranking amps but have critical limitations
→ Poor vibration resistance (accelerated degradation/capacity loss under the constant vibration on motorcycles)
→ Ideal for drones not gas engines (weight-sensitive/short-burst use).
2. Reject the CCA Numbers Game
Inflated CCA Figures Are Fraudulent. Our Prime line LFP5L-BS battery, for instance, can technically display ~280 CCA on professional testers with minimal extra effort. However, we label it honestly at 170 CCA.
True CCA must be determined strictly according to the cell manufacturer's specifications—NOT estimated by the battery assembler or seller—and must account for real-world factors:
- LiFePO4 cells inherently lose 20% or more of max cranking ability in extreme cold.
- Real-world manufacturing (cell connections, BMS integration) adds resistance, reducing actual CCA by another ~10% versus lab cell data.
3. The Critical Factor: Capacity (Ah) is King
For lithium motorcycle batteries, substantial capacity (Amp-hour rating) is essential. Larger capacity delivers both stronger cranking power and longer service life.
Avoid batteries emphasizing only inflated CCA claims or ultra-lightweight designs if they achieve this through undersized capacity.
True performance comes from a balance of high-quality cells, proper capacity, and realistic specifications that account for real-world conditions.
Need Help Finding the Right Battery?
Simply provide us with either:
- Your current battery's size, voltage and model, or
- Your bike's make, model, year and engine size(cc)
via eBay Messages. A photo of your current battery helps us confirm the perfect match - you can easily attach images in eBay Messages.
Q: What do "CCA" and "Ah" mean?
- Ah (Amp-hour): Measures energy storage capacity. Example: A 10Ah battery delivers 1 amp for 10 hours or 10 amps for 1 hour.
- CCA (Cold Cranking Amps): Rates starting power at 0°F/-18°C. Higher CCA = stronger ignition, critical for cold starts or large engines.
Key Insight: High-performance LiFePO₄ delivers more CCA per Ah than AGM. Example: A 2Ah LiFePO₄ matches the cranking power of a 5Ah AGM battery.
Q: What is "Depth of Discharge" (DOD), and why does it matter?
- DOD = % of energy safely used before recharging.
- Higher DOD = more usable power.
- Example 1: A 10Ah battery at 50% DOD = only 5Ah usable before damage.
Example 2: A 7Ah LiFePO₄ (5.6Ah usable) outperforms a 10Ah AGM (5Ah usable) while being 50% lighter.
Q: How often should I charge my LiFePO₄ motorcycle battery?
While riding, a healthy motorcycle charging system (outputting ~14V at 2,000 RPM) effortlessly maintains LiFePO₄ batteries (designed for 13.2–14.8V input). Translation: No spare charger required for regular riders.
Even if you're taking your bike out of service for the winter break, simply disconnect the negative lead from your battery, and thanks to lithium's longevity (low self-discharge rate), it will be good to go when you hook it back up in spring.
Recharge the battery if:
- Voltage drops to 12.6V or lower
- Battery storage exceeds 5 months
- Deep discharge occurs (e.g., lights left on)
Q: How do I safely charge a LiFePO₄ battery? Can I use a lead-acid battery charger?
Use a LiFePO₄-compatible charger (labeled "LFP" or "Lithium Iron Phosphate") recommended for optimal performance and safety.
a basic lead-acid chargers without "boost/repair/desulfation" modes may work as a last resort
While our BMS includes over-voltage protection, it's not a safety net to test. Using incompatible chargers voids warranties and risks failure.
