The mini cooper lightweight 35 lbs has 550 amp and 55 cold cranking power. News are that even the mini cooper LW battery will drain after a few days sitting around. Those batteries and the Brailles are also more difficult to recondition to max efficiency as the lead-acid ones. So for now, I am not even sure of getting the LW mini battery. The Braille even less likely

45 lbs, so 20 lbs savings without sacrificing too much, this is also an AGM battery.

i know because i've had to beg a taxi for a boost in the middle of the night before. all because i was trying to be cheap and put in a battery with lower cold cranking amps. this was on my old dodge stratus couple years back. Quote:

LOL!, There seems to be issues even for those 35-45 lbs. I unfortunately have all the accessories which you don't have, so no way the 20 lbs batteries would work for me. So, I figure saving 15 lbs for the added trouble, may not be worth it.
Convince me otherwise though, please please please

Ok Glen, just ordered the mini cooper battery from Tischer BMW to be delivered at Freeport. When did you say you are going?
133$ usd including shipping. I don't think I save much though as I heard it was like $150 locally, but that was some time ago!

Glen,
Scrap that, Tischer cancelled the order as Batteries are hazardous material, so they aren't allowed to ship! Makes sense though!
