Re: Dead battery
So then, what's the battery there for?
Airspeed, altitude, or brains....you always need at least two

@BUKS VAN NIEKERK,
You should clearly mention what you actually mean. We are confusing to answer your question. I can better answer to your question if you clear it.

Re: Dead battery
The battery was put to rest this weekend. The funeral was well attended. Spotted at the funeral were his brothers Exide and Willard. After the service everyone felt a little run down but tea and sandwiches soon had them all charged up.
RIP

Re: Dead battery
Eish guys, sorry all, i don't get to the forum any more
this is my storie, a new battery was fitted last year, my trike is fitted with a electric start,and worked like a new battery, then i noticed the electric start became more difficult as the battery looses power, i recharged the battery and it worked good again, now the thing is dead( flat) again, and NIE LUS to remove charge and refit, i don't have a lot of time to fly, because of change in job so i try and fly 30 min or so every weekend late afternoons, and thinking its not enough to recharge the battery, so what i do is pull start the microlight and do circuits, the instrument on it is a altimeter and speed indicator, so nothing else other than the starter works of the battery, and i don't charge my radio as the radio is brand new, radio battery fully charged at home, so can the engine cut out?, or result in a engine out, because of a dead battery, in my stupidity i don't thinks so, but want to be sure, hope this make sence,
