Hopefully! Too much unknown to know for sure at the moment. Depends on when they open the borders in Australia. Whether I still have a job to return to and when I will be going back in for work is still unknown. Supposedly I have a job, but this new oil price might be a major factor. Either way, job, or no job, if I don't have to work, I'm planning on being there. Hopefully they are letting us Canadian's across the boarder by then.

I received a couple more pieces to the puzzle this week and it should be all put together in about 2 weeks when the rest comes in. I installed the battery last night and ran the stereo for about 30 minutes. The voltage didn't even drop enough to trigger the charger and stayed above 13 volts. I had a Stinger SPX925HD in it before and it was alright, but you can actually hear the difference when I put the new one in. It's a pricey battery, but the people at Braille were very nice and I'm happy with the purchase.

Input voltage makes a BIG difference.
Those braille batteries are not cheap but well worth the coin

That's a damn good purchase Ron!!!

A local sled audio shop currently swears by the Antigravity ATX30 as a bit more economical but still having pretty good specs. I went with that sucker not only due to the price put the idiot proof restart feature that lets u run that biotch until it automatically shuts off then u just hit the reset button and ur good to start the sled and get on down the road. Just didn't trust myself without that feature cause if u run many of the lithiums down below 10 or 11 they are toast and go in the garbage.

Maybe I will grow into being more aware of the battery voltage someday and get that Braille as it's a top lithium battery without a doubt!!!

Thx for sharing. Damn good purchase!!'

I think it was a good buy too if you look at how much money goes into all the other equipment. I saw that ATX30 and think that shut off feature is awesome, but my alarm/tracker notifies my phone when the voltage voltage hits 11.9 if I'm not paying attention. I've read where a few people ran theirs down too far and they still replaced it for them. I hope I don't have to find out if that still stands true or not though.
