XS Power Battery Buying Guide for Racing & Performance

Lee Motorsports is a nationwide authorized XS Power dealer. Start with your vehicle's electrical system, then compare starting demand, reserve load, installation space and charging requirements.

Five checks before choosing a racing battery

1. Voltage: Keep the battery, charger and vehicle electronics compatible. A 16V battery requires a system designed to support it.
2. Starting and reserve: Cranking amps, cold-cranking amps, maximum current and amp-hours describe different requirements. Include between-round electrical loads.
3. Physical fit: Check actual dimensions, terminals, polarity and the hold-down. Package dimensions are not installation dimensions.
4. Chemistry: AGM, LiFePO4 and TITAN8 LTO need different model-specific charging and installation checks.
5. Charging: Follow the exact battery and charger manuals. Do not assume matching nominal voltage proves compatibility.

Compare popular 16V AGM options

Compare the weight/output tradeoff with your starting and reserve needs. Check the product page and model instructions before selecting a charger or mount.

AGM, lithium or SuperBANK?

• AGM: Compare starting, racing and reserve models with the correct voltage and fit.
• Lithium: Distinguish LiFePO4 from TITAN8 LTO and verify mounting location, temperature limits, BMS provisions and charging profile by model.
• SuperBANK: Ultracapacitors support short current demands. They do not perform the same reserve-energy job as a battery.
