I have installed a Super B 7800 Lithium battery one year ago to replace my 5 
year
old Odyssey PC545. It works fine but is very sensitive to the ambient 
temperature;
in summer it cranks the 912S faster than the Odyssey but as soon as the
temp gets below 10 deg.C it seems to crank slower than the old PC545. I did
not have the opportunity to try at freezing temperature up to now. 
The battery is installed in place of the Odyssey on the starboard footwell 
(picture
attached) 
Regarding weight and balance, I saved an impressive 5 kg, 4 kgs for the battery
itself and 1 kg after removal of the lead I had bolted to the tail to keep the
balance within  limits.
