It probably does more starts, especially hot starts than any other -10 is likely to see. IIRC the plans call for RG25 battery?

When you add the WX Receiver in to the mix, then you need the hub. I won't have that initially (unless business gets a whole lot better fast), but I don want to make provisions for the space it needs as well as the power.

I used this battery on my RV6 for about 13 years and had good luck with it. Yesterday, after three years of service, I finally replaced it with a new one. The original battery cost $59 and the replacement was $89. This battery will crack nicely with the Sky-Tec NL model starter. do not archive ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 06:28:12 PM PST US From: Miller John Subject: Re: RV10-List: Extra battery I use both batteries for start, which seems to work fine so far. At the suggestion of both Aviation Consumer and Light Plane Maintenance, I bought 2 battery tenders and keep them hooked to my batteries if I'm not going to fly for a week or so. Remember that it takes at least an hour of flying to recharge the voltage lost during start.....
