Glow igniter battery life down or glow plug ?
What make is this? Is it new or something someone built from scratch? A new great planes glow plug igniter is about $25 with battery and charger. I charge mine about once every 6 months. I get a heck of a lot more than 10 starts with it. I would look into that and not screw with one that doesn't work. Not worth the headaches.
