If you want your aircraft to loose some weight there is no easier way then to install this simple STC. This STC replaces the original battery with a Power Safe (Hawker) SBS-J16 (similar to the Oddesy) lightweight battery, and it goes in the original battery box. The STC is a paperwork STC only, but contains all the drawings to make the required parts (i.e. battery hold down strap, and optional parts).

Additional Installation Options

The following options are not required, only the battery installation is required. In addition to the lightweight battery installation, this STC allows the OPTION of replacing the original master switch and fuses with a circuit breaker master switch (not in the pictures, the switch goes in the same hole that the original switch was removed from). Also for aircraft that do not have a master and starter solenoid, there is an OPTION for installing them in place of the original equipment along with the lightweight battery.

Applicable models are all Piper PA-22, PA-20, PA-19, PA-18, PA-16, PA-14 and PA-12 aircraft.
