Product Description: Shido Lithium Battery

The Shido Lithium Battery offers you increased starting power, an exceptionally long lifespan, and is environmentally friendly. Available at POLO Motorrad.

• Increased Starting Power: Thanks to its low internal resistance, the Shido Lithium Battery delivers high cranking current. This ensures reliable starts under all conditions.
• Longer Lifespan: With over 1200 cycles according to JISD standard, it far outlasts conventional lead-acid batteries, which only achieve 150 to 300 cycles.
• Weight Reduction: This battery is up to 80% lighter than conventional models. This significantly improves the handling of your motorcycle.
• Environmentally Friendly and Safe: Free of acid and heavy metals like lead and cadmium. The Shido Battery is non-toxic, non-explosive, and non-flammable.
• Easy Installation: With the same connectors as lead-acid batteries, it fits perfectly and can be installed in any position.

Detailed Product Description:

Shido Lithium Battery - Increased Starting Power, Longer Lifespan - Lithium Iron Phosphate Technology

• INCREASED STARTING POWER: Thanks to its low internal resistance, this lithium starter battery can generate a very high cranking current. Therefore, it's not about the Ah, but the starting power.
• LONGER LIFESPAN: With more than 1200 cycles according to JISD standard, our battery lasts significantly longer than a lead-acid battery, which only survives about 150 to 300 full cycles.
• WEIGHT REDUCTION: This battery is significantly lighter than conventional batteries, depending on the model, a weight reduction of up to 80% can be achieved.
• ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY AND SAFE: Our battery contains no acid or heavy metals like lead, cadmium, or mercury, it is non-explosive and non-flammable.
• EASY INSTALLATION: Our lithium batteries have the same shape and use the same connectors as the corresponding lead-acid batteries, they can be installed in any position.

Our Shido Lithium Battery is the high-quality alternative for your vehicle. Thanks to the lithium iron phosphate technology LiFePO4, it impresses with significantly increased starting power and a longer lifespan. It contains no lead and no acid and is equipped with an integrated electronic battery management system (BMS). Due to its low internal resistance, our lithium starter battery can generate a very high cranking current. Therefore, it's not about the Ah, but the starting power. The cranking current (CA), which is what matters for two-wheelers, is up to 30% higher.

Compared to a "normal" lead-acid battery, our battery is absolutely resistant to deep discharge and significantly lighter, depending on the model, a weight reduction of up to 80% can be achieved. Installation is simple because our lithium batteries have the same shape and use the same connectors as the corresponding lead-acid batteries. It can be installed in any position and contains no acid or heavy metals like lead, cadmium, or mercury, so it cannot leak. Additionally, it is extremely safe, non-explosive, and non-flammable. Finally, it offers an integrated charge status indicator and a 3-year warranty. Discover the advantages of our Shido Lithium Battery!

Details:

• Lithium Iron Phosphate Technology LiFePO4
• contains no lead and no acid
• integrated electronic battery management system (BMS)
• Due to its low internal resistance, a lithium starter battery with low Ah can generate a very high cranking current
• compared to a "normal" lead-acid battery, it's not about the Ah but the starting power
• the cranking current (CA), which is what matters for two-wheelers, is up to 30% higher
• with more than 1200 cycles according to JISD standard, significantly more durable (the lead-acid battery only survives about 150 - 300 complete cycles)
• absolutely resistant to deep discharge
• significantly lighter, depending on the model up to 80% weight reduction
• easy installation: Lithium batteries have the same shape and use the same connectors as the corresponding lead-acid batteries (battery designations in parentheses indicate the batteries that can also be replaced with this lithium battery)
• possibly including spacers - ensuring the battery is secure and firm without further adjustments in the battery compartment!
• can be installed in any position
• no environmental pollution - contains no acid or heavy metals like lead, cadmium, or mercury - so it cannot leak
• extremely safe - non-explosive and non-flammable
• integrated charge status indicator
• with the appropriate charger (see options) very quickly rechargeable - up to 90% within 6 minutes
• 3-year warranty

Charge Status Indicator:
3 LEDs light up (blue) = >13.15 volts: Battery is fully charged
2 LEDs light up (yellow) = >13.0 volts: Battery is ready for use, the engine can be started, but could use a charge
1 LED lights up (red) = <12.8 volts: Battery must be charged before starting the engine

Commissioning:

• to avoid damage, please check before installation if this battery fits your vehicle (fit, dimensions, type, pole position)
• Note: For some models, the correct installation as a replacement for the original battery may not be immediately apparent - sometimes rotating the battery helps to position the connectors correctly.
• the battery is delivered pre-charged and may not have full power – please, if necessary, restore full capacity with an appropriate motorcycle charger (see options) before installation

NOTE: At extremely low temperatures (around minus 10 °C), increased battery resistance can cause starting problems. However, due to the built-in management system, this is significantly less pronounced than with most conventional lithium batteries. There is also a simple trick: If the battery performs poorly under extremely cold conditions, turn on your headlights for 10 to 15 seconds. This warms the battery through the current flow and improves starting performance.

Dimensions and Performance:
Weights, dimensions, and pole position see the article
Voltage, charge: see article designation/selection field

Options:

• suitable charger e.g. from Hi-Q (order number 50020000911 or 50020000912)
• battery pole adapters allow cables to be screwed to the battery poles at a different angle than intended (order number 50020000210)
• if you already have too many cables connected to the battery and it makes connecting difficult, the cable distribution set helps to free up space (order number 50220000550)
• battery pole grease to protect the poles AFTER connecting to the onboard network (order number 55070000021 or 55070000023)
• some of these lithium batteries are also available as a Connect version, which shows you the battery charge level on your smartphone/tablet via Bluetooth®
