I went into town and bought an H6 battery and finished the weekend. Back at home, I got Braille on the phone, and they had me do the following to restart the battery. 1) put jumper cables between the Braille and the new H6 battery for exactly 30 seconds. 2) let the Braille sit for 2 hours. 3) Try to charge with the Braille charger, and stick around for the whole time it took to charge, which was about 8 hours. (I have my cars in a garage attached to my office) 4) Presto, the battery charged back up to 13.3v and has been great ever since. Braille did warn me that this little routine usually, but not always works. If it had not worked, I'd be out of luck...not covered by warranty.

I talked to AG during this time with some thoughts about replacing this Braille, and they were awesome to talk to, but my battery has been fine for over a year with no issues.

I think 80AH may be spec'd for my car, but that's probably so as to take into account use of the start-stop feature, which I don't really use. I also don't just sit in the car with the stereo or other accessories powered up, so I think even though the Li-ion is half the AH rating, it should still be fine for a DD.

To circle back around from onfireTTS's newest post, I move my Braille battery to the GT2RS without issue in December. I took it to the dealer for programming in February with no luck; they just could not get it to change parameters without the car showing fault codes, so we just changed it back to default and it's been perfect ever since...about 5 months. TPC Racing has just started working with Braille batteries in some of their builds after I showed it to Mike Levitas, and they also have another project car that has the AntiGravity version. I also added to my car the AntiGravity battery Tracker to give me bluetooth updates in the battery status - highly recommended, and works fine with the Braille battery.

For those who don't know or might be curious we have a similar options to the Braille but a little different in the aspect of having a BMS (battery management system built in) that has additional protection so please feel free to check out the thread below for more info.

But in regards to monitoring, the Battery Tracker is a great tool to have for any battery or chemical composition.

Otherwise the main shipment should be close to the end of the month. Pending what's happening currently with importing that could affect when we actually get them.
