I was going to weigh it, but I just haven't gotten around to it

I was told by one source 38lbs, another 42lbs. I did carry it and it is somewhere around there for sure

With the charger (special one for Braille's Li technology) about $2K all-in. Could have gone cheaper with a smaller battery, but the cool thing about this one is that it should store for a couple months without a charger and won't go into hibernation, which will trigger many resets.

OK... stock battery on my digital scale is 42 lbs

so this saves > 32 lbs or almost 15 Kgm

about half the top weight savings
