What are you guys recommending for a replacement battery for my 1960 PA18-150, SN 7592? Still has a generator.
The one that I just removed is a REMY 4000 that came with the plane . I am looking at the Concorde RG -25 and the RG-25XC. I would prefer to go with Concorde vs. Gill.
Because I know what you are thinking...., I am getting up to 12.3 V from the Generator according my G396 digital V reading. I took the battery out and load tested it at Auto Zone. The readout said "bad battery."
Despite that report, I charged the REMY for 3 days with the 1.3A charger with a de sulphation pulser and it failed the load test again.
Looks to me like it's new battery time. I would appreciate any advice.
Thanks
Tom
