I never have problems starting. ( batteries x tie to start) ...Hi James,Thanks for your experience. Have you ever tried starting your 540 with just one 18AH Panasonic? If so, was it adequate?When I talked to a Panasonic tech, he said that the 18AH was not suited to do what I wanted. I did find a a PowerSonic 21 Ah that would put out 210amps for 10 sec duration and it also has a flame retardant case & 30 more cranking amps than the 18AH at the same weight and cost.Power-Sonic PSH-12180FR John ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 02:18:34 PM PST US From: James Robinson Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Battery replacement philosophies . . .Battery replacement philosophies . . . Hi John To answer your question no I haven't because the system is not set up that way. I do have electronic ignitiion and that may help in the starting, but the engine spins rapidly with the 2 batteries. I'll keep the info and look into the power sonic before my next change Jim James Robinson Glasair lll N79R Spanish Fork UT U77 ________________________________ From: John Burnaby Sent: Thu, January 28, 2010 11:53:58 AM Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Battery replacement philosophies . . .Battery replacement philosophies . . . .....
