    Because
    1. It lasts 2-3 times as long.
    2. Offers twice the starting power.
    3. Lets the car sit without a tender.
    4. Offers booster function.
    5. Saves you 20 lbs.

    At 3 times the cost they should last 2-3 times longer . My last battery lasted 5 years, do this one 10-15 years, doubt it , plus will not have the car that long.

    since I do not race or track car the weight saving is not important.

    interesting concept seems more oriented to motorcycles

    It did indeed start out as a motorcycle and powersports thing. However, there is a use in other areas. I just got one for the Lusso, and weight savings were not the reason. It is a daily driver, so the starting power and the booster function is my reasons.
    There is a 10 year warranty I believe.

    I have such a mental block/trauma on the idea of letting either of my Fcars sit without being attached to the tender lol. Would need to learn to "let go" pun intended
