Gary,
This was posted on the other list by a fellow Tiger owner. What do you think about
what they told him?
Ned
FWIW, the ElectroAir installation instructions recommends against any permanent
magnet light weight starter and specifies the SkyTek as incompatible with starting
with their electronic ignition energized because of the high current draw.
The later version is OK but I have the PM version. I just don't get to start
with the electronic ignition energized. I kept the impulse mag so starts are
just like always on the Left mag and turn on the electronic after startup.

There is a clever saying about telling someone not to do something that can
't be done while he's doing it, but it slips my mind. -=0A=0ALet's ask De
an and Larry what they think. -They both have light weight starters, one
24 volt, one 12 volt. -I installed them both.-=0A=0AUnless the battery
is dead or near dead, I can't think of a reason to worry about it. -Come
to think of it, if the battery is low and the ElectroAir is not putting out
enough juice, the plane will still start just fine on the left mag if the
engine cranks. -=0A=0AGary=0A=0A=0A________________________________=0A Fr

Mine has been working fine for 8 months now. I also have the Bogert cables
so that helps with less voltage drop. I don't really understand why that
instruction is there.

starters, one 24 volt, one 12 volt. I installed them both.
Unless the battery is dead or near dead, I can't think of a reason to worry
about it. Come to think of it, if the battery is low and the ElectroAir is
