Reviews

I have used these batteries for 20 years. I replaced them in about fours years is I was going to remote areas. I would use the ones I pulled out for various jobs in the Hanger. They would last another 10 years in the hanger, What really surprised me is they would hold a charge all winter.

Just replaced this battery in my Christavia MK-1. Originally installed in April 2004 when plane was completed. 0-200 cranks fast, easy starts. I hope this one also last 19 years. Great battery!

Great battery. I calculated, that with the given charging cycles, this battery should last 3-4 years at the rate I fly. The battery (same make and model) lasted 9 years before dying. To me, that is a very good value.
