My friends joke about the spare parts that I carry in the baggage area of
my RV10. I am considering using a single side of electronic ignition and a
single side magneto. Does anyone have a recommendation for reliable non
magneto ignition? Anyone who has installed electronic ignition
have spare magneto?Also considering using the earth x batteries, anyone
have any experience with Li ion batteries? Currently using Odyssey.

Currently running a six cylinder pMag on one side, the original mag on the o
ther on my old RV-10. It works very well and provides significant efficienc
y gain.
The second mag will be replaced with another pMag when it comes due for main
tenance/replacement.
If you use something other than a pMag, even if only on one side, you should
add backup battery capacity for the ignition. I don=99t consider los
s of the ship power dependent EI, leaving you running only on the mag, as an
acceptable risk. Your risk tolerance my be different.
Personally, I would not fly with and EarthX - for many reasons. For the RV-
10 it also makes little sense as the battery(s) in the back are needed for W
&B (unless you have some big AC unit back there).

As far as batteries my Odessey 975 is six years old and now will replace
since volts drop enough on cranking to reboot the GTN650, which didn't
happen a year or so ago. Still cranks fine and holds 12.9 volts for more
than a week

Bob, how much did the earthx affect your W&B? I like my Odyssey because it
is very close to the weight of the plans specified Concord RG25-XC, with
much stronger cranking.

I have a pair of them in the back. They were about nine pounds lighter tha
n the pair of Oddessy 680s that I originally installed. I don=92t remembe
r their exact weight at the moment. The pair are probably similar to a sta
ndard single battery.
I don=92t have any issues with CG.

While I am sure there are some advantages, the down side for me would be
21 lbs lighter for a Earthx 900 vs my 925 and more than double the cost
for the same forecast life. The weight reduction certainly would get me
closer to Van's empty wt figures, not sure how much it would move the
envelope. Going with a pair of 680s comes in at 18 lbs lighter (26 vs 8)
at a cost of $300 more than the single 900.
For me the price would have to come down significantly.......otherwise
could be very desirable. Maybe in another 6-8 yrs.
