Just received it  tonight. Will report later. One immediate observation; for each battery behind the  closeout, a separate sensor wire is required and 12V cigarette plugs must be  placed in the top where it is not necessary to remove the rear cover to maintain  the batteries.

Correction to  previous post. Sensor will not be required for most situations. For any battery  behind the closeout, the most feasible charging will take place with a 12V  cigarette receptacle adjacent to or in the top piece; each connector will have  ring terminals on the battery terminals. I have 2 680s there and will need two  receptacles. A single cigarette plug can be matched to the special connector and  plugged into the battery to be maintained. Concorde batteries fall to the gel  category, Odyssey are AGM and I hope we don't have any unsealed batteries in the  aircraft.

Not sure which Concorde batteries you are referring to David. The RG

series are all AGM. The CB series are wet cell. The battery Van's

suggests is an RG-25 which is AGM. I don't happen to know of any they

sell for aircraft that are gel cell, maybe there are some.

I was not referring to the RGs; I have several old Concordes; also

instructions say if uncertain assume GEL and 2A charge.
