J’utilise la PowerStart 16000 sur mon avion. Le démarrage est très puissant en toutes conditions.
En plus avec 16Ah, on ne risque pas de décharger exagérément la batterie en allumant un EFIS quelques minutes avant de démarrer son moteur.
Très content du produit.

Super Produit, installé sur un Cap 21. Plus de problème de démarrage à chaud. En période hivernale, la batterie délivre toute sa puissance instantanément. Génial !

Hey, seems great battery. Do you ship it in USA ?
Steeve (verified owner) –
Hello, i got an RV8 with the same engine IO360. Can you ship it to US ?

Dear Steeve,
At this time, we sell our products within EEC only. Main reason is regarding shipping cost that are very high for US for Lithium-Ion devices.

Great product for LSA and Rotax engines. Shipping time for Sweden was a bit long for Norway, but package was ok.

Batterie installée pour une utilisation sur ROTAX 912. Impeccable, démarrage ultra puissant quelque soit la température extérieure. Pas de recharge nécessaire à la sortie de l’hiver. C’est top !

The best battery I found for my Rotax 912s that has a LAD injection system.
Engine start well, capacity grant autonomy
Advice. Buying it, consider to, replacing Rotax/Ducati regulator by higher quality regulator
Content Team (store manager) –
Great! Just one point regarding Rotax engine : stock regulator could face some issues (not for everyone) : in case stock Rotax regulator voltage is greater than 14.4V, then battery can swith off during flight. please call us if you have a Rotax engine with stock regulator.
In many cases, only PowerStart 16000 is able to manage such case because it has been designed for aircraft operation.
Please ask us what is the best option for starting your aircraft engine. Some people faced power shutdown during flight because of wrong configuration with lithium start battery.
