Dave,
I think he was asking about the batteries. Any idea on the number of charge cycles and approximate replacement cost? -Tom |

The batteries should last 11 years and cost 12k Euros to replace.

Did anyone figured out the cost per, say, 1000ft of altitude, giving
the battery replacement cost, charging cost, engine maintainance etc? It would be interesting to see a comparisom between electric glider, motorgliders, aerotows and winch tows as for the overall cost per 1000ft of altitude. Ramy |
