Antigravity AG-1202 6V Lithium Battery | Small Case | 12-Cell | Vintage / Classic Vehicle | AG-1202
Antigravity AG-1202 6V Lithium Battery – Small Case | 12-Cell | Vintage & Classic Vehicle | AG-1202
6-VOLT SYSTEM ONLY — This is a 6V battery for vehicles with a 6V electrical system. It is not compatible with 12V vehicles. Confirm your vehicle runs a 6V system before ordering. A 12V charger will damage this battery — a 6V-compatible lithium charger is required.
Antigravity AG-1202 — 6V lithium-ion battery in a compact small case. 12-cell LiFePO4 construction for vintage motorcycles, scooters, and classic vehicles running 6V electrical systems. A fraction of the weight of a comparable lead-acid 6V battery at 2.8 lbs. Direct replacement for bulky 6V lead-acid units in period-correct and restored builds.
6V Lithium for Classic Vehicles
6V electrical systems were standard on most motorcycles and scooters produced before the late 1960s, and on many automobiles produced before the mid-1960s. Classic British motorcycles (BSA, Triumph, Norton, AJS, Matchless), early Japanese bikes (Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki pre-1970s), vintage scooters (Vespa, Lambretta), and pre-1966 classic cars commonly ran 6V systems. While many of these vehicles have been converted to 12V over the years, original-spec builds and restorations maintaining the factory 6V system benefit significantly from a modern lithium replacement over the original lead-acid technology.
Weight Advantage
A traditional 6V lead-acid battery of equivalent capacity weighs 10–20 lbs. The AG-1202 weighs 2.8 lbs — a weight saving of 7–17 lbs on a vintage build where weight reduction is both a performance and handling benefit. The compact small case dimensions also allow fitment in battery boxes where a modern lead-acid equivalent would not fit.
LiFePO4 Construction
Antigravity uses lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cell chemistry — stable, thermally safe, and well-suited to the charge and discharge characteristics of vintage vehicle electrical systems, including older generators and regulators. LiFePO4 cells maintain a more consistent voltage under load than lead-acid and hold a charge significantly longer during storage between rides or show seasons.
Charging Compatibility
A 6V-compatible lithium battery charger is required. Standard 12V automotive or motorcycle battery chargers will overcharge and damage a 6V lithium battery. Confirm your charger is rated for 6V lithium (LiFePO4) before connecting. If your vehicle’s charging system (generator or alternator) has been tuned for lead-acid, verify output voltage is appropriate for lithium charging — some vintage regulators may require adjustment.
6V electrical systems only — not compatible with 12V vehicles. Use a 6V lithium-compatible charger only — 12V chargers will damage this battery. Verify physical case dimensions fit your battery box before ordering. Confirm your vehicle’s charging system voltage regulation is appropriate for lithium before installation.
