Wade, Here is what I have done for the past four years: During the
annual Condition Inspection, I take the battery out of my Lawn Tractor.
I take it to O'Reiley's Auto Parts store, aviation section, and exchange
the battery for a new $25.00, 24 pound, group U1 (36 amp. hr.), U1L (you
may need a U1R), Super Start, _*sealed*_ Lawn & Garden battery. Remove
the old battery from the plane, put it in the Lawn Tractor and put the
new one in the plane.

I have an Odyssey PC680 battery in my plane. I bought it from eBay for
about $70 four years ago. 14 lbs, 680 CCA, 17Ah.

I've got the Odyssey 680 (The non-certified version). I haven't pulled the first
electron out of it but the size and weight are great for it's specs.

> Odyssey batteries, with an eight year design life saves you time and money because
you do not have to replace your battery as often. It is also the only battery
that is capable of delivering a large number of deep cycles up to 400 when
fully discharged or up to 500 when discharged to 80%. Plus, the battery is
specially designed for high vibration applications. Unlike conventional batteries
that need to be recharged every six to twelve weeks, the Odyssey battery
will maintain up to 50% state of charge after 2 yrs if stored at room temperature
(77F). At temperatures lower than 77F, storage times will be even longer.
The cranking power of Odyssey batteries is double to triple that of equally sized
conventional batteries, even when the temperature is as low as -40F. Odyssey
batteries may be shipped worry free by UPS/Federal Express or air. 2 Year Warranty

This battery can be purchased on some sites for around $122 with free
shipping.
Do a Google search on Odyssey PC680.

I am using the PC680 and it has plenty of cranking power. It also mounted
nicely in rear of the fusilage, required for W&B with an 0-235.

There seems to be enough friction to hopefully keep them closed during flight so
I just left them as flip no cables.Did put a little handle on the lever [a piece
from a fishing reel bail arm] Cheers

I've sat in a Zodiac HD in Czech and it had this type of vent installed opening
to the front. It was actually mounted to be just ground or taxiing cooling vent.
It worked great and I'll install them too for sure. It is hot here in California
sometimes.

I'm using an Oddesey 625, 15 lbs, 7" wide 6 1/2" tall, 3 3/4" deep. I'm not flying
yet, but it looks like it has plenty of power to crank the Corvair. It's
a drycell. I purchased it from Summit Racing.

Thanks for the replies. I now have enough stuff coming for the kid's
project. I am still a little unclear as to what they are going to do with them,
but if it is cool and aviation related, I will share it. Thanks again for the
replies and help with this.
