Maybe some of the BA regulars can 'weigh' in an let us know what the A32S bins can take.
BA has similar weight restrictions for their overhead bins.

I guess for most people here the weight will be the issue, not the size. If they'd be a bit more generous there I would be happy with the enforcement of the rules. But if they really insist on 8kg things will become difficult for everyone.
