The battery came in as advertised and VERY QUICKLY. I ordered it on Friday, it shipped the following Monday and It was delivered Tuesday. Not bad at all! Fortunately it’s a sealed battery because the external box had no indicator for “this side up” and thus the delivery person just placed it down randomly. Thankfully I was there to grab it.
The battery I received was stamped about 10 months old. Gill batteries typically only last 5 years or so which is kind of a let down given the price. I’ll be trickle charging this one during off season months though so we will see.
The battery was double boxed. It came with the original battery box inside of a small nondescript brown box. It contained the Airworthiness FAA Form 8130-3 and the shipping manifest.
I would definitely recommend that the external box has a “side up” indication for the delivery guys.
The website was easy to traverse. It’s tailored for Grummans (go figure), but I appreciated the fact that it showed current battery stock even for my battery which is not used in Grummans. I wanted to triple check stock so I gave the number at the top of the site a call and spoke to the owner. He was very helpful and courteous. Very knowledgeable of planes and systems. I’ll definitely consider returning when I buy a surefly mag next time.
The credit card processing fee was about 3% which is fine. The shipping was 40$ flat for me. Given that this is a 34lb battery, that seems fair.
All in all I had a great experience with the website and checkout. However, speaking directly to the owner was what sold me. He is definitely knowledgeable of aircraft and it was great talking to a fellow pilot.
