[QUOTE="craig, post: 130129, member: 1959"] Started Rapide today, first time with Grosset electric, with Shorai LFX18A1-12BS with my 5 year old Alton generator and Podtronics regulator. Voltage at Shorai before start 13.63v Voltage after started and running at idle 13.4v Voltage when revs at 2000+ was 14.2v, 8amp meter pegged at 8 amps at high RPM. Several more starts today with a run time of 5 mins each time. Voltage with engine off was still 13.60v Since this Shorai battery is a PIA to remove from the Rapide and hook up the official Shorai charger, i am planning to purchase a Battery Tender Li charger for keeping up days between rides ( and doubting my Alton system until proven).
