Today we’re going to be reviewing and installing a smart lithium battery from Antigravity. The stock battery in my S4 Audi has become weak and the car is throwing occasional warnings. As this car is heavily modified a light-weight lithium solution made sense and our friends at Antigravity came through with a solution.

The installation is as simple as any other battery swap. The car does need to know you swapped the battery via adaptation coding, but this is required for OEM battery replacements too and is easy to do with a variety of tools. I will show you how to use Ross-Tech VCDS to perform the battery coding.

I love the smart features of the battery. Having an integrated battery management system is a great way to ensure a wide variety of cars can accept and manage the lithium battery without wearing it out. The BMS system also features protection for over-charge and over-discharge as well as short-circuit protection. These are great safety features and maximize battery life. These batteries can last from 7 to 9 years.

The remote start feature is also really neat. Having a dead battery and waiting for a charger or being stranded and having to find jumper cables is never fun. The wireless keyfobs are a great touch especially for a trunk mounted battery like the S4’s.
