How to install Brave on Kali Linux

I’m trying to install Brave on Kali Linux but I am having issues and Google isn’t helping too much.

The problems start at the sudo apt update command. I get
E: Malformed entry 1 in list file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release-.list (Component)

E: The list of sources could not be read.

So I figure something is wrong in that file. After reading various web pages I decided to comment out:
deb [arch=amd64] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ main in the vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release-.list file.

That enabled me to update.

But then, when I issue the sudo apt install brave-browser command I get:
E: Unable to locate package brave-browser

I assume I need that line but it needs to say something else? Besides
#deb [arch=amd64] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ main?

I’m sure the answer is somewhere on the web but so far it’s only bits and pieces.
