Braille Lightweight Battery Kit

We installed a 15lbs. Braille 2015 battery in our car to go to the dragstrip. It's a simple way to lose some weight. To mount the battery we custom made a bracket that fits where the stock batteries go and we decided to make some extras and offer them for sale to you guys if you are interested.

I will ship them out in raw aluminum. We spray painted ours and you can easily do the same thing in any color that you prefer. This bracket will safely secure a Braille 2015 battery and it also remains extremely light as it is made with aluminum.

If you are interested in one I made a couple of extra and I can always make some more.

Price $85.00 plus shipping

This is the battery and bracket in our E63S


Raw battery bracket. This is how we will ship it.

Do these Braille batteries hold up to daily use abuse? What are the A/h and CCA ratings on it?

We utilize the 2015 which is what we made the bracket for and we ONLY use it for when we go to the track. They have other options that are better for daily use like the 21 lbs. battery but we didn't use that so we don't have a bracket for that particular battery.

IMO, this battery is brilliant for track, but may doubt about daily drive,

i bought a (braille B3121, 21 lbs), around "9" months ago, when i installed it,

forced problems with the starting, BAS/ESP light shows-up, and battery flashes when running about 400 mile,,

of course can't confirm that in W211 E55/E63....

ZAYED,,
