Product Details
Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah Light weight Lithium Ion starter battery (previously known as B7800, SB12V7800P-BC)
The
Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah Li-ion battery contians a very high capacity and has lightweight (just 1300 gram, about 80% weight reduction. The 13.2 V, 7800 mAh
Lithium SuperB Andrena 12V7.5Ah battery has a long life span and low self-discharge. The dimensions of the
Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah battery are only 120 x 82 x 98 mm (LxWxH).
PLEASE NOTE: The capacity is relatively higher than a lead battery with the same capacity. This newly developed
Super B battery is designed to replace the much heavier 12 to 20 Ah lead/acid battery.
The
Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah Lithium battery is specially developed for heavy motorcycles and engines (up to 1500cc 4 stroke) with high compression. Such as Ducati Ducati / MV Augusta / BMW R1200 GS / BMW R1200 RT / Rotax 912 S/ULS / Rotax 912 A/F/UL .
The Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah starter battery is based on the safe Lithium Iron Phosphate technology (LiFePO4), better known as Lithium Ion.
The Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah starter battery delivers up to 360 Cranking Amps.
The Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah starter battery offers many advantages over conventional 12 to 20 Ah lead/acid batteries:
weighs less: as much as 80% weight saving; 1300 grams;
recharges many times faster: within 5 minutes after starting your engine the battery will be recharged;
is much smaller: 1/3 or less of the space; 120mm x 82mm x 98mm (WxHxD);
has a longer service life: more than 5 years instead of 2 to 3 years;
has a low self-discharge rate.
Safety
super B batteries are based on Lithium Iron Phosphate technology (LiFePO4). This so called Lithium Ion technology as used in the super B batteries is the safest Lithium Ion technology today. On top of that our specially designed casing and electronics further increase safety and durability.
Capacity
Super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah refers to 7.8 Ah (Amps/Hour), which represents the real nominal capacity under maximum continuous load. How different this is from lead / acid batteries where manufactures provide a 20 hour rating. For example the 10 Ah lead / acid batterie can be discharged over a period of 20 hours with a 0.5 Amp load. This is not very practical, as the same 10 Ah battery discharged with a 2,5 Amp load, for example a 25 Watt light bulb, will yield no more than 2.2 Ah of energy. The lead-acid battery, therefore, has less capacity when the load increases, which means that you can start more often with the super B.
Starting Current
We use a 10-second rating instead of CCA for the super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah battery. The 10-second rating is easy to understand: it represents the amount of current a battery can produce during 10 seconds without being damaged. The super B Andrena 12V7.5Ah can deliver a current of 360 Amps during 10 seconds. The batteries can deliver higher currents for shorter periods and lower currents for longer periods.
Charging
The super B 7800 battery can be charged with almost all motorbikes, up to a maximum of 14.4 Volts. Do not overcharge, as this will damage the battery. The super B charges much faster than conventional batteries: charging a lead- acid battery takes 7 to 14 hours, during which the internal resistance increases and the charge current decreases. The super B 7800 can be charged within 1 hour at a charge current of 6 Amps. If the charge current is increased to 12 Amps, it will charge in 30 minutes. Do not charge the battery with more than 20 Amps as this will damage the battery.
Charger
We recommend to use the appropriate super B charger to charge super B batteries (see accesories). Do not use a lead-acid charger, as these chargers are optimized for a different battery technology and make use of methods for charging and safeguarding which are unsuitable for super B batteries.
Lifespan
Over 5 years.
Connecting the battery
The super B 7800 battery is designed with M6 screw terminals, this makes it easy to replace the stock lead-acid battery. The super B 7800 battery is shipped with two M6 bolds and plastic end caps to fit to the wires on the bike
F.I.M. / Stock Racing
The F.I.M. modified the regulations for stock racing regarding battery use.
Article 2.7.9.5 Battery:
The Battery may be replaced. If replaced, its nominal capacity must be equal to or higher than the Homologated type. The F.I.M. has approved the super B battery for use as replacement battery.
