Editor and Lightweight battery

I am looking at getting a lightweight battery but concerned with frying PCM if the battery goes down.

who uses a lightweight battery and does programming?

Why not just keep a regular one handy while tuning?

I would err on the side of caution and not chance loosing power to the PCM.

No only while running LT1 edit when you have a direct connection with the PCM.
