    Just got my first genset MEP-831A

    So i pulled the trigger on a new factory battery and figured to just cry once. I switched over the cables and hooked the new battery up, filled up the fuel and oil and replaced all the filters. The old girl fired right up without any issues after just a few tries. I did notice the shut down...

    Just got my first genset MEP-831A

    Good advice. I'm going to ask around at my local airport to see what I can locate. Otherwise ill pull the trigger on a new one despite the obscene price. I've got the generator and don't trust expired ebay batterys so hopefully maintained unit can be had from some guys Cessna lol.

    Just got my first genset MEP-831A

    Thanks and will do. These batter's are used on everything from Cessna 182's to pipers and even beechcraft. So ill locate one eventually. Even if I come out $500 I won't loose to much sleep. It will be new and last a very long time. I want a trusty battery on my emergency generator. But again I...

    Just got my first genset MEP-831A

    Well I wanted a generator for a long time and can now justify getting one. Plan to use if for back up power to our home. It's a smaller one but hopefully it will suit our modest needs. Picked up a MEP-831A which I was using in the Corps as recently as 2013. So these guys are still in service and...
