Are you saying that retaining the battery increases the chances of a fire? The takeaway being that the battery isn't our friend during/after an accident? ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:45:46 AM PST US Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: How do you hold a pull able breaker opened From: rparigor@SUFFOLK.LIB.NY.US Unless someone comes up with a better idea, I think I have a stone simple and light solution for flagging and keeping my E-buss alternate breaker opened.

From: "CamLight" Hello all, After seeing a few units burn out unexpectedly (including one of mine), I've been doing an analysis of the West Mountain Radio CBA II. I was wondering if anyone here had done the MOSFET switch (from IRL2910 to IRFP2907) detailed in Bob Nuckoll's 4/10/05 analysis of the CBA II? Thanks! -------- John M.

I have used the West Mountain unit a few times. No worries. I didn't know there was a mod. I bought mine about a year ago and have used it with an 11 ah battery and a few other smaller ones. I am getting ready to try it out with my new Oddessy 625. Maybe in a week, after the holiday. I have loaded the Ver 2 software, but have not tried it out.
