So, did you do a load test on it when it was fully charged? After the load test what was the output voltage? How long did it take to charge after the load test? Did the battery get warm during the load test? Does the battery have to be "balanced charged"? Will the battery safely accept a "quick charge" without getting dangerously hot? Does the battery get warm during a normal charge? These are the questions you should be asking about a Life lithium battery.

Yes, it was fully charged, No load test need plug and play, and its no getting hot. The battery need a different tender. I'll making additional videos as soon with real rider experiences with this battery.

Lithium battery kind of sucks in cooler areas, They lose the charge much faster.

I understand the exact opposite from what I heard.

I'm looking forward to some more videos on this subject, specifically about longevity. We are selling these things by the boatload and I hope no one will be disappointed in their performance.
