Got a Shorai on the way hoping to make it to bam despite realizing my braille came unplugged from the tender a week ago and is totally turd dead now. Won't charge up with the quick, and overnight with the tender keeps putting it into flashing lights mode. Grrr


Anyway I need some terminal posts. I've been recommended the odyssey kit however couldn't find it local, but I just want something local that will fit.





thanks!

Incase anyone cares this battery is suppose to be awesome @ same price as braille carbon 11.5 lbs, half the weight, twice the reserve capacity. My problem with the Braille is always a when the car is sitting and someone steals my extension cord for other duties, doesn't replug it and the battery dies all the way. Once that happens the sob is done for.

For comparison, the Shorai LFX36L3-BS12: 5lbs

Voltage: 12V
Cold Cranking Amps: 540A (vs. stock battery: 390)
Amp Hour: 36AH (vs. stock battery: 48AH)


The braille

11.5lbs
Voltage: 12v
Full Charge Voltage: 13.8v
Short Circuit Current: 904
Pulse Cranking Amps (PCA): 904
Cold Cranking Amps: 360
Cranking Amps: 486
Amp Hour (AH): 15

 

I have a buddy who is a shorai distributor. He told me he has SAE battery terminals for the battery in stock. He is located in San Jose area.

I will pm you his info.

 

I am running a Shorai as well on my STI. Be very careful with the Shorai charger if you bought it. If there is ANY draw what so ever when the car is off the "Storage" mode on the Shorai charger cannot overcome it. If it's in "Charge" mode it's fine but it will automatically switch to storage after it's done.

My recommendation is to put it on the Shorai charger occasionally to give it a good kick and maintain the Li cells but once it's done charging put it back on a standard battery tender to keep it topped off.

Killed my Shorai once already because of this. Otherwise it's an amazing little battery.
