Hello folks,
One of my projects for this year is to have a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) LEAK (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) free battery. I have looked at Optima and Odyssey and I see many members here use Optima. But I am tempted to go to Braille since it weighs much lesser. I am currently looking at this particular one: http://www.braillebattery.com/index.php/batteries/b2317r/ So let me hear what you folks think. Any comment would be appreciated.

I've got the 17 lb version and so far so good. Since summer. Brass terminals and mountable on its side - which I did. No racing or tracking. But my CG probly went done an .001 mm or so. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Comes with plastic mount, or aluminum version for racing. About $80 for the metal secure mount IIRC. I don't have any electronics besides OEM radio. Bought mine from TireRack. |

It comes with a mounting kit which is $19.99 if bought directly from Braille. I am still dreaming about having this one. Can you post the pic of the battery installed please? And amaze us how small it is. Thanks! |
