Question Braille Battery... Which One?

Well the stock battery I guess took a shyt. I know I want a Braille but which one? I plan on TTing the Z and a complete audio/video in the future. I also don't want to worry about the battery ever again.

Honestly, if you do plan on doing audio and video in the future this might not be the battery for you. I know you said you don't want to worry about the battery ever again, so what you need to decide if you haven't already is how deep will you be getting into your audio and video.

Thinking a single 5-channel amp running cab speaker and single 12" sub. Notthing extreme with mulitple amps and high powered speakers and subs.

I finally got ahold of Braille in Florida. Went ahead and ordered the 2015 (15lbs) battery in CF. They recommend the 15 lbs for daily driven cars with small audio systems. I also picked up the battery charger so my wife doesn't have to worry about starting the car everyday while I'm gone. (Currently living in Kuwait.) The girl mentioned that the charger comes with quick connects/disconnects for easy connecting/disconnecting. This is useful for those that store there car in the winter. Or just to charge it overnight. Everything with the basic mounting hardware was $330. The non-cf is a bit cheaper but the same battery.

I am Polish, so maybe I'm a little slow on the uptake, but you got a charger with the battery? why? does this battery not hold a charge or something?

Looks sweet though. and the weight savings is big if you are going for all-out performance.

I think he needed the charger because since he's not around for months (?) at a time, it will keep the battery charged so his wife will not have to drive the car now and then to charge it.

Thanks! Tht is correct. I'm currently in Kuwait so the Z doesn't get driven as much when I'm home.
