Bill - I have a couple of Fromeco packs that are more than 2 years old <br>and still are going fine. I know that the lithium batteries degrade <br>with time but it is a slow loss in capacity and probably a rise in <br>internal resistance rather than a catastrophic failure with loss of all <br>power. I am keeping a close eye on mine and will toss them when I <br>notice a significant loss in capacity. Mine are in sport planes but to <br>be honest, I would probably just replace them if they were in my pattern <br>plane if they already gave me 2 years of good service. Just cheap <br>insurance.<br><br>Chris<br><br>Bill Pritchett wrote:<br>> Guys -<br>> Is there a life span for these packs?
