Funny how lithium batteries are so dangerous in airplanes but this battery is advertised as being for experimental aircraft.

I mounted a Braille in our Dakota Stocker this time last year and it worked fine this summer in some higher than normal summer days - the only thing I noticed with it was I had to continually tighten the top post adapters all summer till they finally seemed to seat but over all between tire/wheel combo and the battery we moved 44 lbs - just my $.02
