<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I bought the Honda and am very happy with
it. I can run two 10s chargers at once so it should pay for itself
pretty fast if one needed two marine batteries per year.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The only battery giving me a problem is the
lead acid Marine 'deep discharge' battery used for field charging
of the lipos. It has lost about 70% of it's capacity in seven
months.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It provided six 12min flts when new and was
purchased from Academy Surplus for $40. It has provided a total of
maybe 80 flights ( 30 cycles ??? ). The problem is likely due to my
maintenance ( lack thereof ). I left the battery in a partial discharge
state sometmes for weeks. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>You can find
maintenance needs on Google at agmbatteries, courtesy Earl
Haury.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>West Mountain sells a gell cell, 54#, 84ah,
rated for 500 cycles @ 100% discharge ( 20hr discharge rate ), $149 del. I
will see how it performs under our conditions.</FONT></DIV>
