    Subject: Need a new battery! Help!
    --> Rocket-List message posted by: Morocketman@aol.com I purchased a battery from Sun Battery in Jacksonville, FL, about 4 years ago. It had a "recumbant recovery system" or something fancy like that. The battery only cost about $35. It was a wonderful battery, but is starting to show it's age. Does anyone know where Sun Battery went? If not, does anyone know of a Rocket pilot who lives near Orlando, and flies a Blue Rocket with yellow trim? He turned me on to Sun Battery. Help me, I have fallen down and cannot get started up again. Les Featherston 417-425-3595

    Subject: Need a new battery! Help!
    --> Rocket-List message posted by: "Kevin Shannon" <kshannon@seanet.com> I just ordered a sealed RG battery from Digikey.com, it is about 6.5" square and 5" tall, 28 A/H, weighs 21 pounds and only $37. Its probably bigger than necessary but should have plenty of cranking power and some extra weight in the tail shouldn't hurt...

    --> Rocket-List message posted by: Lee Logan <leeloganster@gmail.com> I know the PC680 is the "mac-daddy" battery these days, but has anyone integrated a PC925 into their all electric design? See: http://www.sunnbattery.com/item.jhtml?UCIDs=3D559844%7C1209500&PRID=3D1292863 This thing is a powerhouse. Anyone using one?

    Subject: Dukes pump
    --> Rocket-List message posted by: "Kevin Shannon" <kshannon@seanet.com> Kevin Shannon Superintendent Severson Construction, LLC Question for anybody using a Dukes pump: I am looking at a used Dukes boost pump on ebay, the auction says 13v 24 psi/47 gph min and 31 psi max which sounds like the one we need, my question is does it require an additional check valve manifold type setup and closed loop return like the airflow performance pump, or do you just simply install it in line and your good to go? I can't find any specs for it on the Dukes web page. Thanks Kevin Shannon

    Subject: Re: Dukes pump
    --> Rocket-List message posted by: WiningsJ@aol.com I am using a Dukes pump. It has a pressure relief and check valve built in (real nice). It had been rebuilt shortly before I bought it. It had a bearing seal start leaking. I replaced it with a new one and now it is leaking again. I am going to find something else to use on my Rocket. Jim Winings #34. 317-718-3415
