The original BMW 69Ah Lithium-Ion starter battery (Part number 61218047221) is a lightweight power unit designed for high-performance vehicles like the BMW M3 (F80) and M4 (F82/F83). It weighs about 13.5 kg and requires specialized, lithium-compatible charging equipment. Standard lead-acid chargers will damage it.
Because of its unique chemistry, this battery differs significantly from traditional starter batteries:
– Weight: Lithium-ion is much lighter than standard lead-acid batteries, which improves your car’s handling and track performance.
– Capacity: 69Ah (Ampere-hours) refers to the energy capacity. It simply means the battery can provide 1 amp of current for 69 hours before dying.
Charging Needs: You cannot jump-start this battery using a normal charger. You must use a dedicated lithium-ion battery maintainer
