Used the AG 12 cell, but we relocated them to the nose of the sled so the Skinz seats fit better.
I would use the 12-12 with the stock seat.

well we still dont have enough snow to ride, but it is getting cold enough to do some testing on the battery. It got to -6F last night and sitting in the open with 25 MPH winds blowing on the sled, it is still dark outside and -1F and i just got done with the first test. the earthx turned it over on the first try, it was slow, but the engine still tried to "catch". i tried 2 more tries and no go. i waited a few minutes and it started on the second try.

it had no problem at these temps, but tomorrow morning will be a better test. -18F projected for tomorrow night, I will turn the engine over once and stop and turn on the battery warmer for about 10 minutes and see if that will make a difference or not.

Awesome so interested in the grip warmer mod. Even if just 1-3 minutes of the warmers on if that would allow it to crank over and start it would be a no brainer to add the lithium. Thanks for doing the test!
