Check out our Powerlite Lithium batteries.
We offer several capacities from 7 to 10 pounds and have a new 16V920SS super start battery that cranks at 1500 amps and has 16 amp hour capacity. I would normally recommend our 16V1200 for non-alternator cars, but have been running this battery in my super stock car for the past two seasons and have been able to go a couple rounds without charging it in a pinch! It is an awesome battery at a great price.
If you think the weight is the only benefit to lithium give us a call to find out more.
