These lithium packs will give your Think a 40 to 50 mile range . I have been supplying them to Gem owners and have had limited availability . Now have a few more in stock and can offer them to Think owners . These are New battery packs made by LG chem . Base version is a 20spack @ 82v but can be upped to 24s and 96v ( I run 96v in my personal Gem) . These packs are 180ah and weigh 140lbs total . A stock lead packs weighs about 400lbs . This upgrade will make your Think accelerate much faster , climb hills at higher speeds and significantly increase range . In most cases your Think will perform so well with your stock motor you will not need to upgrade it .Your Deltaq charger will need to be reprogrammed for lithium . And I would recommend using a BMS . Multiple Gem owners are using a 400A , 20s , bluetooth one off of Ebay and have been very happy ($125) . We have dozens of Gems running this setup . The pack have 2 modules . These are pictures showing dimensions with the modules stacked on top of each other . They can also be use side by side . The packs prepped and ready for install are $2200 . ![IMG_20200531_113711](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/d/dfdb046de3273943495b93309cb12ac8ab5df10f.jpeg) ![IMG_20200531_113718](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/2/2eb07adb912cd832a711ae9cec469438cbcfc1d9.jpeg) ![IMG_20200531_113654](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/c/cd9517fa218371e8219b47ec287c32a40faf508c.jpeg) ---

I’m interested in your Lithium upgrade, do you have more info, battery type, charger? I live in Phoenix, any insight on folks who do upgrades here? ---

Hi I’d like more information on your lithium batteries for Ford Think and how I can purchase ---

I have some ready to go. The issue is width. 14.5". As there are so many Think conversions in the works, I may strip the sides to get it to 14". If you can find a way to squeeze in 24 x 14.5 x 8 , you are good to go. Price is $2750 delivered. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/4/4368e98708f6a9d27cfc4bfb01264cd178e96c84.jpeg) ---

It has been measured as 14" wide. What do you think? ---

Ok I’ll see how I can make that happen. Is it possible to fit at an angle like making an angled bracket? Or do the batteries need to lay flat. Also I have a QuiQ 7212 model: 910-7201 battery charger. Is this battery charger compatible? ---

Any way it fits is fine. We but Bolt batteries in Gems at an angle. Look at the number on flange. DQCP or DQCT is what we need. ---

The barcode right? DQCP ---

Yes, DQCP is right at the cut off point. DQCP need a big black dot next to it . ![DeltaQ dqcp dot](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/2/21939a4d38624be6f0ef948c1f3c390e99f019af.png) ---

Also a think owner and the deka gels are on their last legs and would like to go lithium. Also have the QuiQ 7212 (no black dot) charger that I installed without the harness back in 2006. @Inwo @LithiumGods Really like this contained setup vs stacked cells. ---

Dqcp needs the dot to program, but no need to program when using less than 22s. Lead profile will charge to 80%. I just sent an empty battery case to a Think owner to test fitment. Battery is 1/4" too wide, but, that wouldn’t stop me from prying it in somehow. In a pinch, (pun intended) I’m building a long narrow battery using the same new SDI cells. ---

This one can be ready quickly. One off as it’s the only enclosure I have. 36x11x6 overall. As it’s custom $500 more that the off the shelf 22s SDI battery. ![20211020_162533](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/2/2a03256f88fee9ed774b1f495d6cd79f77cb17cd.jpeg) Up to 24s, 22s recommended. ---

Mine is the think two seater. Don’t know if the four seater is different. With these dimensions I’m assuming I’d need to cut out the middle seat brace. ---

Don’t know, it’s only 11 or 6 inches wide. [Next page](https://community.electricforum.com/t/ford-think-extended-range-lithium-battery-packs/19217.md?page=2)
