Small review on an Antigravity Battery

I know I have the heaviest of the M3’s, but to save about 42lbs from the back and it might just be me but the car does feel somewhat different when turning since theres 58lbs on one corner of the car vs 15.45lbs. I will update later if any issues arise.

Shouldn't have any issues. We've been running Antigravity on both our race and street cars with no issues over the past couple of years and they perform nothing short of fantastic, well before introducing them to the forum crowd.

Interesting, and at a fair price level. And even with 40Ah vs OEM 90Ah I bet the function is better. Starting to realize the outstanding features only after I bought a boat last year with Lithium. Can be drained much more (80-90% vs 50% lead) and above that it accept full current till its pretty much fully charged. While charge current goes down drastically in the case of lead pack shortly after charging is started.
