Default RE: Batshare Question


ORIGINAL: Bobby Folsom

Okay, here's the story! 2 switches, 2 Duralite Plus 4800 mah batteries go thru the switch and INTO the BatShare;o utput of Batshare is hooked matching side of Duralite Plus 6.0 v regulator, the output side (male plug) of the REGULATOR plugs into an open receiver slot. Same for the other side.

This setup has worked for me all of the 2005 IMAC season. The battery voltage is measured at the switch (Cermark HD switches) and may be slightly different before a flight but after a 15 minute flight, the batteries measure within 0.01mv of each other - flight after flight - same 0.01 mv difference at most. The closeness of the battery voltage AFTER the flight indicates the BatShare IS WORKING!!! And I love it!!

I had two Duralite Plus 1900 mah batteries going through two separate switches with regulators into the receiver in another plane that I flew for several months. This is where I discovered that the receive CONSISTENTLY drew from one battery. The other battery's voltage was the same though out the days' flying!! That's why on my next plane I went with a BatShare.

THANKS!

I really appreciate input from someone who's done what I want to do. It will be most interesting to see what Duralite has to say since I just don't see what the problem would be...
