I've got one. I'll weigh it for you... ok, it is 1.62 kg for the lock itself, which feels pretty heavy when you have to lug it about. If you included the mounting bracket it would be nearer the 1.864 kg quoted. I only used the bracket once and then chucked it - the heavy lock just didn't feel secure enough in it.Even the OnGuard Brute X4 you mentioned is shown as 1.864kgs, if you can trust the weights there.
I think the Brute is about as big and tough as most people would be prepared to carry any distance, but even that lock would probably only protect for 1-2 minutes against someone with the right tools who was determined to get the bike.
I only leave a bike locked up outside the local supermarket, and that is my homemade singlespeed bike worth only £100 or so. I wouldn't leave my more expensive bikes anywhere out of sight even with the Brute On-guard!
