Ordered the 2317 in the end, nearly went for the 2015 but bottled it and decided that for the sake of 0.9kg I'd rather have the higher capacity one.

lol. git.

New regs mean we can run about 90kg lighter with the same power so a bit of weight saving is good but can always turn the engine back up

Just wondering if anyone's tried the braile L//w battery on here. If so, how did you find it and which model to go for.

Have looked at these for a while, but slightly worried about causing electrical damage due to low wattage.

I ran the Braille 8317R 7.7kg for all 2010 without issue. However my car does get conditioned every few days and it isn't subject to daily winter short runs

As stated I bought the 8317 too, mind you I've only driven the car twice since (Silverstone and Snet) and the battery is isolated whilst the car is standing. Car does get started and moved around a fair bit though.
