As the title suggests, I’m curious whether anyone would be interested in an braille auto lightweight battery group buy? If so we could organize one and see what we can get arranged pricing wise etc… These batteries are awesome, the lightest being 6lbs (this is track only or stereo-less car), the 11lbs which I would like to get is capable of starting up a V8 and being a daily driver with a stereo system, etc… (of course not insane amps/woofer setups). My battery is dead right now, so, I need one… I planned to get this but they are a little pricey… JRP performance rips off on the price, and the company itself sells a bit steep, but it is definetely a battery that’s worth it. I looked into others like odyssey and whatnot but they do not compare. check out what they have available: [http://www.brailleauto.com/](http://www.brailleauto.com/) [http://www.brailleauto.com/productcart/pc/viewCategories.asp?idCategory=2](http://www.brailleauto.com/productcart/pc/viewCategories.asp?idCategory=2) ---

Hah! this thread has been revived. Awesome battery though, I ended up getting shumi’s used 850cca battery. I still want to relocate battery to rear + get this battery anyways though. Awesome battery indeed. ---
