<div dir="ltr">Yep. I use a Jeti DSM ESC switch as well, with two power inputs, that allows me to keep the battery backup power isolated from the BEC power so I'm not backfeeding voltage to the switching BEC on the Mezon. I can turn on my radio independently of the main power arming switch (and draw from the backup battery) to adjust settings, etc. After the main power is armed and the BEC is supplying the full 8v to the system, once the backup battery drops below 8v under load, the BEC is supplying all power and the backup battery is not drained at all until I disarm the main power again.<div><br></div><div>I love it. I can use the same backup battery (I use a 900 mAh RX pack) for weeks without charging it.</div><div><br></div><div>Peter+</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Dec 10, 2015 at 8:08 AM, Derek Koopowitz via NSRCA-discussion <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org" target="_blank">nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Robert,<div><br></div><div>I've been using the Mezon 90 with BEC for over a year - no problems at all.
