When It Comes To Aviation, Batteries Do Far More Than Just Provide Starting Power. Sometimes Lots More...
If you are like most of us pilots, you probably assume that as long as your ship's battery is still strong enough to crank your starter it is good enough. Wrong! Concorde Battery Company's Skip Koss verifies that amazingly it only takes as little as 15-18% of the original battery capacity to start the average GA engine! That means you may very well be flying around with less than 20% of your battery's original capacity available just when you need it the most. In the real world, alternator and regulator failures occur at just the wrong times and all too common. When it happens to you, instead of an hour or so reserve power, reduced batter capacity could mean as little as just a few minuets reserve power between you and no lights, A/Pilot, navigation, landing gear, or even gear warning lights when you suffer a charging system failure!
Ask any pilot who has ever had an in-flight charging system failure how important his battery storage capacity is. When it happens, it's the absolute worst time to learn the importance of having a battery with only 1/2 (or less) capacity of new. In fact, loosing your nav/coms, GPS, electric gear & flaps, or landing lights is a poor time to learn about battery pulse de-sulfation technology...! Also, a little known fact is that typical GA batteries have enough reactive material to last 5-10+ years, but typically only last a fraction of that primarily due to excessive Sulfation. We didn't invent or discover this technology, NASA did, and it works! Magna Labs has developed several models of pulse electronic de-sulfators which are fully automatic and function as both maintainers and chargers. They come in 6, 12, 24, and 36-volt models and are quite different (read: sophisticated) smart battery charger/maintainer/de-sulfators and are not generally available in retail stores. This is the same technology that has proven effective with the US. Military (over $80million dollars worth of pulse de-sulfators currently in use by the Army alone), the Canadian rail industry, golf cart, and solar power industry, etc. just to name a few. Specific tuned frequency pulse charging has proven effective to prevent excessive lead plate sulfation and it has proven to be able to restore sulfated batteries previously thought to be trash to near new output. |
