Nikolay ... yeah, EP is about the novelty factor, I am fully EP now and I am doing it because its clean and I am lazy. You are incorrect to say that the batteries are good for 30 cycles. A branded good battery is good for about 70 cycles if you pull it at MAXIMUM discharged rate. Again, 200 cycles is possible if you are hardly pushing it, I mean hardly, something we all will not be doing. On the average I say they are good for 100-125 cycles. Hence, glow is cheaper.

Sportflyr - I have got an 80" CAP 232 up in EP ... Lucky I don't have kids!

Now back to topic ... in Malaysia I have seen maybe 6 Lancairs and not one has had a wing failure ... aren't we lucky!
