Do you lose power with a lightweight battery?

Lose power, No. I actually get better FM radio reception after installing mine. Go figure... And the car starts easier.

depends, there's a few different sizes. I wouldn't use a lightweight battery with any big amps & subs. My Braille always felt like the entire electrical system was underpowered & caused the power steering to go limp while parking.
