The TB17 Advanced Lithium-Ion battery is ideal for piston and turbine driven aircraft to provide quick engine starts and emergency power. The TB17 features NanoPhosphate® lithium-ion cells, which offers three-times more energy per kilogram, resulting in a battery that is 45% lighter than lead-acid or nickel-cadmium alternatives.
- 17 amp-hour battery at 23°C, nominal
- Lighter than lead-acid and nickel-cadmium alternatives — only 16 lb
- Advanced NanoPhosphate® lithium-ion cell chemistry
- Seven engine starts in 7 minutes
- 30 minutes (at 34 amps) for complete recharge when the battery is fully discharged
- Superior performance at extreme temperatures (-40°C to 70°C)
- Overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, short circuit, over-temperature, under-temperature and charge current limiting protection
- Communicates battery status to the cockpit
- Higher voltage during engine start — Less wear, less maintenance and increased useful life
