You may want to check out one of the new lithium batteries, they are still more
expensive than lead acid batteries but the price has come way down. Incredible
performance for very light weight. I have a 3.5 lb lithium in my 1.5l Mazda
2 - 4.5lb. in a 2.0l Mazda 3 and 1.25lb. in both a Honda 230cc 4 stroke dirt bike
and a 250cc street bike. They work great, take up very little space and have
almost no loss during storage.

I got one of the Shorai Lithium Iron batteries this last winter and put it in the
MKIII to spin over a 582. Pricey, 14 amp hour, works great, weighs 2 pounds.
But if you ever let it completely discharge, it's toast. I have an electrical
cut off switch on mine just to keep it from bleeding down by any random current
drains, or me forgetting to turn off the radio. Will let you know in a couple
years if this battery was a good idea or not.

even a lead acid battery wont come back fully if let go below 11.8......
not completely toast, but not completely good either.

John,
This photo reminds me of all the great photos of the U.S. John W. took from the
Kolbra. They used to be available on the net but have since disappeared with
his passing, or I just can't find them anymore. One I remember that really stood
out to me was the photo of the Manhattan skyline while he was flying down the
Hudson River. I'd love to spend a full week of evenings looking at all of them
again.

That's Dennis Souder in the Factory Firestar, 1985.
I don't know the first gentleman in the MKII.

John W's web site remained up for a short time after his death. Am guessing
his family took down the web site. Was disappointed when that happened.
His admirers lost a great source of information about flying and the flights
that John W did in the short time he flew his Kolbra.
Hardly a day goes by that I don't think of John W. I miss our flying days
together. 25 May will be six years since he died.
