I ran a Shorai in my motorcycle and it worked fairly well above 50 degrees, but was terrible in colder temps. On a trip to Alaska, we had several mornings where it would not crank the bike fast enough to start it initially. My BMW has a fairly high compression engine so doesn’t crank all that easily cold, but the original AGM battery cranked it fine down to 20 F. I had to turn the key on and wait 5+ minutes when the temps were between 35 and 40 F before the battery warmed enough to crank the motorcycle fast enough to start. It was a happy day when I replaced the Shorai with a new AGM. The light weight was nice as was the slower self-discharge, but having to wait 5 minutes in order to crank your bike when everyone else has their bikes running and warming up is a real pain.

Agree, they are not the best choice for cold conditions.
