    The replacement battery from AS&S is currently $144. Divided by 5 is $28.80 per year.... 4 D-cell batteries are under $10. So it's about 3X more expensive and less readily available as you can buy D-cell batteries anywhere!

    Have had nothing but trouble from leaking D Cells. By the time I have pulled off the wing tip and cleaned up the mess, $144 looks reasonable, very reasonable. I believe (not near manual) my new ELT does battery check on startup. Sweet! Let me see, a battery for the ELT, ELT panel indicator, the Dynon, GPS, Intercom, and flashlight. Hmmmm, maybe I need to rethink all this ?u --- Original Message --- From: "Michael Kraus" <n223rv@wolflakeairport.net> Sent: May 24, 2014 6:40 AM Subject: Re: RV-List: 406 ELT and batteries The replacement battery from AS&S is currently $144.

    Don't forget that we're only allowed to use HALF the useful life an ELT battery or batteries. On 5/24/2014 8:33 AM, Michael Kraus wrote: > > The replacement battery from AS&S is currently $144.

    In the past I've rolled my own battery to replace the official ELT battery. Taking the wrapper off of the old one revealed nine ordinary 9 volts. Easy decision.
