Braille Lightweight Batteries... info/reviews...

[SAKU]

We have the 11 lbs battery on our car, for a daily driver it works well, but if i dont drive the car for more than 3-4 days then i have to disconnect it, but other than that it works well on our car.

the article reads... "And apparently there were some styling compromises that went along with the design as well, because in stock form the Toyota Yaris will give small children nightmares for a week from its less-than-beautiful looks alone."

styling compromises? nightmares for small children? how can they say such hurtful things?

but anyway back on topic i just got my 11lb braille battery today and wow it is mad tiny. so cute. going to try and fabricate some kind of bracket at work tomorrow and i guess if that doesn't work out i'll be ordering that aluminum mounting kit.

cheers!

Can this thing handle cold Northeast winters?
Is this suitable for daily driver applications?

It is actually preferred for daily driving. You can't leave it in the car for longer than 10 days without driving it or it'll loose its charge. You also can't leave the key in the "ACC" position for long period of time, you pretty much gotta leave it off or idle the engine.
