Excitation Battery Replacements - Make & Model Needed

Post by TwinStarScott »

As discussed during a previous post on DAN, I am aware that the four equivalent ECU batteries for the Panasonic LC-R127R2P is the Yausu NP7-12 / 12V / 7 AH.

However, now that Panasonic has discontinued both models of the Lead Acid Batteries used in the DA42-TDI’s. Does anyone happen to know the (Yausu?) replacement batteries for the Panasonic excitation batteries (LC-R121R3P)? These are the two smaller batteries accessed through the pilot’s side nose baggage door.

Thanks in advance!

Scott,
According to the IPC it should be the Yuasa 12V, 1,2 Ah. They are quite cheap if you source them directly (12€). Datasheet is attached.
