What the thread found

• A landing pad originally made for the generation 2 battery hanger can mount around an angled battery and allow the sled to sit on the ground, potentially modified to hold additional weight without blocking the battery
• Gold mount plates designed for battery hangers can have weights screwed or mounted to them, provided the battery plate is not in use
• Small drilled and tapped mounting plates can be attached to accessory points on either side of the lower electronics to hold dive weights, allowing balanced weight distribution
• Aftermarket threaded 1/4-20 screw weights designed for monitors can be attached to any threaded hole
• Exercise wrist weights can be attached to monitor mount rails as a low-cost solution
• Small weight blocks can be inserted inside the lower electronics junction box
• A mounting block compatible with the sled post weighs nearly 2 pounds and provides substantial ballast

Depends on

• Availability of the generation 2 landing pad is uncertain
• The landing pad modification to hold weight was suggested but not confirmed as tested
• Gold mount weight solutions require not using a battery plate
• The exercise wrist weight and junction box weight solutions are mentioned without detailed confirmation
