1. The Two Things That Stop People

Most people hesitate to switch to a new battery for two simple reasons:

“Will it fit?” – They‘re not sure if it’s the right size.

“Is it too heavy to install?” – They don‘t want to struggle with lifting it

Size and weight are the difference between a battery you actually install and one that sits in your garage.

2. What Size Do You Need?

Most cars and SUVs use one of three common sizes:

How to check yours:

Look at your current battery label – it often has the size code printed on it
Measure it – length × width × height in millimeters, then match it to the table

For motorcycles, sizes vary by model. Check your current battery dimensions and compare them with the product specs.

3. How Much Does It Weigh?

Sodium-ion batteries are about 60% lighter than lead-acid.

Here‘s how the numbers compare:

Battery Type	JIEYO Model	Sodium-Ion Weight	Comparable Lead-Acid (est.)
Small motorcycle	JYM-YTX4-1204	1.05 kg	~2.5 kg
Standard motorcycle	JYM-NT7-1207	2.0 kg	~4.5 kg
Large motorcycle	JYM-YTX12-1210	2.55 kg	~5.5 kg
Automotive (H5)	JYH-H5-1240	5.6 kg	~14-16 kg
Automotive (H6)	JYH-H6-1250	8.0 kg	~18-20 kg
Automotive (H8)	JYH-H8-1280	16.0 kg	~25-30 kg

What does 60% lighter mean for you?

A 50Ah model weighs about 8 kg (about 16 lbs) — most adults can lift it with one hand
A 60Ah model weighs about 10 kg (about 20 lbs) — heavier for some, but still far lighter than a comparable lead-acid
No more calling a neighbor to help you install it
Less strain on your vehicle, especially for motorcycles
Lower shipping costs

4. Does Lighter Mean Less Durable?

No.

Lighter doesn’t mean weaker. Sodium-ion batteries deliver the same or better performance – long cycle life, high CCA, and full BMS protection.
