You should have no issues with the battery even with the vehicle parked for a week, as long as you don't leave anything on, the car should start as usual.

With this battery, it means no sitting around, with engine off, and run your radio for a few hours.

Awesome!

37 pounds behind the rear axle at a medium height is a pretty good savings...

i will think about this mod for the future.. for sure...

wow aleks, this battery plus ur weight saving from the eisenmann should give you a quicker burst of throttle. Of course it wont be night and day but with all that weight completely gone it will probably be noticeable in this tank of a car.

Updates/Review maybe?

Interested in buying one.

Well... he reviewed it said it was working fine.

I assume it still is.

i had to take my car back to the dealership for service and some other work ... so I decided to put the stock one back just to make sure everything will be ok ...

but i had it on the car for 3 days with 0 problems ... i am thinking to get the smaller one 15lb, so i will probably be selling this one - 3 days old

Was the dealer able to determine that power has been disconnected? (It sounds like they didn't give you a hard time either way, but I am curious.)

Hmmm... you have a battery you know works fine and are going to go to something that may not for ~6 pounds?

if it doesn't work I will use it on my other vehicle ... i haven't decided yet ...

also hpa uses 15lb on their car with no issues ... so why not to try it ... but it is 6 cyl. and not a v8 ...

i don't know ... but i am very cool with my SA ... so i don't think he really cares about it ...

lemme know if you plan on selling the battery locally...

You know where to go when you need one, but I would stick with the 21 lb for the M3.
