Bought this brand new from Lowbrow Customs. Was going to use it on a project but never did. Never used or installed.Bates BattBoy Battery Box for Antigravity Batteries vintage Harley Panhead
Modern gel or Li-Ion batteries (such as AntiGravity Batteries) offer a significant advantage - they are leak-proof. Those who ever experienced spilled acid in their horseshoe oil tanks will highly appreciate this fact. On the other hand, owners of classic bikes do like the looks of their original battery and the corresponding cover and mounts.
With a Bates Battboy Battery Jar you can have the best of both worlds, because what looks like a period type HM5 6V accumulator on the outside can house a safe, modern battery within. Just hook it with two eyelet wires to the terminals on the bottom of the lid and you are all set.
Perfect for 6 to 12 volts electrical system conversions, if you are using the proper L designation DGC-5000L Cycle Electric generator it will work just fine. When using suitable Antigravity versions you even have some storage room left for a few small spare parts, safety vest, Cuban cigars, etc. Ain´t this one heck of a cool solution for an old problem?
