What? You haven't searched anything.Thank goodness I get a freebie! I'm excited you searched the category, lots of detailed information has not been discussed. And if you could what posting explained the long term results newer than 2016? Thanks for the input but you didn't bring any useful information 👍
Actually a little smaller.That is the one I was highly considering. Was the fitment perfect for the Atz-10 with the 4 post technology? Plenty of slack on the cables?
Where did you ground the second ground to? Did you notice any difference in starting with the additional ground? I read the thread where a second ground fixed a hot start problem but I still can't figure out why unless the cable was bad or the ground on the other end of the cable was bad, but cleaning the ground and or replacing the existing ground cable should take care of that.I bought the Firepower. It's been fantastic. I also added a second 8ga ground cable to it.
I ran it just forwarded of the existing one. There is a mounting boss cast into the casing with another bracket. Yes I did notice a difference, fist it doesn't have any heat in it anymore, and second, the hot start issues disappear. It actually doubled the ground route. Double the ground size reduce the resistance by half. I did this before I went to the lithium battery though. It worked great for the lead acid, I just kept it there. The factory doesn't put a big enough battery in these bikes to start with, and a normal start will pull a lot on them and the ground will get hot. I've seen the negative side of a factory battery post melt the wire shielding it gets so hot during a hot start.Where did you ground the second ground to?

The battery installedThanks! Would you be able to take some pics of it installed ? And will the bike keep it charged thru the season or is a tender a must.
