• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Micro-Start PPS (Emergency Battery) Test Results

OK so i got one of those Micro-start PPS emergency batteries the anti gravity ones, actually the XP-3 model, i got it about a week ago, charged it completely up and put it in the back of my Spyder in its bag (This thing is smaller and lighter than my Ipad). :thumbup:

Today i disconnected the battery to my 2010 Chevrolet Suburban, and then connected this XP-3 to the cables to see if it would start. It started my Suburban 4 times in a row with no problem, I did not want to try anymore because I did not want to damage my Suburban, the XP-3 lights showed that it was still fully charged. :thumbup::thumbup:

I wanted this to be able to have a battery to jump start my Spyder in case of emergency ................. Well this little sucker works like a charm. I bet i could start 20 Spyders before it runs out of power.

Go to Amazon.com and google Anti Gravity Battery and they have two styles like this the XP-1 and XP-3, i think the XP-1 just has more attachments, the XP-3 has the Jumper Cables, a USB cable with 3 different outputs and a nice soft carrying case.

It is a lithium battery so you can charge it and it will hold that charge for a year or better and it appears to be the safest way to carry an extra power supply.

It comes with a car charger and a wall Charger ($110.00 AND UP CHECK EBAY OR AMAZON FOR FREE SHIPPING)

Update: fully recharged in 40 minutes with wall plug and now it heads back into its stoage place in the Spyder.

The same night I bought the xp-1 my spyder battery died. Hmmm? Anyway, I'm with you...nice thing to have.
 
Yes i sell them up here in Oregon, and boy they have saved a lots of people. the ATV groups really love them and my boating group have them for back up Radios power and starter power. This is a must have on spyders from 08-13 bikes or any bike. great saver to have in your car to. get one will pay for it self..:yes::clap::bowdown:
 
Joe,
I only took a quick peek at their site so far... :opps:
Does that little powerhouse come with connectors, or do you order them separately? :dontknow:

Hi Joe:

This is awesome and didn't know it was even available but now I do thanks to you.

Hey- can you hook this up some how to jump start the Spyder via the 12-volt port in the trunk or does it have to be connected to the Spyder's battery posts?

Thanks!

Cannot boost through the 12V accessories port. I am guessing you have 2012 or older Spyder. In that case you can't push 150 to 200 amp through a 3 amp fuse and a 22 gauge wire.
