Kolbers:

Got ready to test my new WARP Drive Prop yesterday, only to find I had forgotten to turn the Master Switch off last week. Zero battery. Jumped the 912ULS to do my static test. Afterwards pulled the PC545 to discover it was installed April 2007. It has been in the MKIII for 9 years, often sitting for 4 or 5 months while I am busy traveling on the ground. I keep it maintained with a very small solar cell charger/maintainer. It is always hot and ready to start the 912ULS except when I forget the master switch.

Pulled the battery, brought it home to see if I could get it to recharge. Took some finagling to get the charger to pick up the charge. Had to rig a couple jumper wires from bad to a good battery with the charger hooked up to the good battery. Eventually, the PC545 got enough charge for the charger/good battery to begin doing its job. This morning the battery is 100%.

I'll reinstall this 9 year old battery to finish up my final prop check flight tests. However, I'll have to go to town and see if I can find a replacement to make my flight to Lakeland. Since I have never attempted to hand prop the 912ULS, and doubt I ever will, I need a good, reliable battery to depend on.

I think I got my money's worth out of this battery. Probably paid 90.00 for it in 2007. That's 10.00 a year. I've used these batteries for many years. Never had a problem with them. Wish I had more time before departure to Lakeland. I would order this one today. 94.95 and free shipping.
