I tested 4 of my AMP20 cells in serries, temperature was 60'F test voltage was 13.1v and they tested as having:
Canking power equal to 2/3 the cranking power of a new 800CCA optima red top battery.
80% of the rated cranking amps of an optima battery. (new optimas put out about 20% to 25% more CCA than what they are rated for)
So, 4 and a half pounds of lithium replaces 66% to 80% of the cranking power you get out of a 46 pound optima battery.
