Hi Group,
I just bought a new battery for my ELT as I'm doing an annual on it.
Here are the prices I
found....
Skyport............................36.00
Pacific Coast Avionics......35.00
Wag-Aero........................28.50
Aircraft Spruce.................23.50
Chief................................23.50
I didn't look any farther, except for the phone to call Chief, I had
it in my hand the next day via
UPS.
