CHARGING ANTIGRAVITY 16-VOLT BATTERY
The Antigravity Batteries VTX-20 batteries operate and are recharged correctly with the proper 16-Volt Lithium-
Iron-Phosphate Charger rated not to exeed 17.5-Volts and 15-Amps Charge Rate. If you are not sure check with the
manufacturer. DO NOT CHARGE THIS BATTERY IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF THE CORRECT CHARGER. THERE IS A
POTENTIAL FOR FIRE, AND EXPLOSION.
To Charge or Maintain your Antigravity Battery
: Only use a Lithium-Ion Charger designed specifically for 16-volt LiFePo4
Lithium-Iron-Phosphate Starter Batteries. Follow all Manufacturer’s Instruction on Charger use. Contact Antigravity
Batteries for suggestions on a Charger for your use, or visit our website.
Antigravity Batteries 16-Volt Batteries are only for Race Use. Antigravity Batteries will not warranty the use of
16-Volt batteries in Custom Race and/or Total Loss systems. 16-Volt Antigravity Batteries are not to be used
in 12-Volt vehicle Systems.

Do NOT use Lead/Acid Chargers/Maintainers on this Antigravity Battery or Lithium Batteries.
Do NOT use a 12-Volt Charger on a 16-Volt Battery.
Use only APPROVED LIFEPO4 Chargers for your Battery’s specific Voltage, Chemistry and Maximum Charge Rate.
Check Vehicle for proper Charging System Operation. You may have a bad Voltage Regulator.
IF YOUR BATTERY HAS BEEN OVER-DISCHARGED BELOW 14-Volts, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO JUMP-START. CHARGE
IT UP TO A MINIMUM OF 14.5v FIRST WITH THE PROPER CHARGER.
CHARGING SYSTEMS WARNING
(
OWNERS OF PRE-1990S VEHICLES TAKE NOTICE
)
An Antigravity Battery can be over-charged if the vehicle’s charging system is defective or goes bad. For example, the
voltage regulator being defective or incorrect. In these cases the Lithium battery can be dangerously over-charged by
spiking voltages (voltage should never go above 17.5v when charging) from the vehicle’s system. It is imperative to
check for proper operation of your vehicle’s charging system. Many Pre-1990s vehicles have aged and by now have
faulty voltage regulators. We recommend that a Professional checks your vehicle’s system, especially on older vehicles
(Pre 1990s) that are being used currently. Failure to check system could result in fire, explosion and damage to personal
property.
