Trig TT21 transponder for sale
Dave, I checked with the other owners and they want to upgrade the transceiver and flight computer before adding a transponder. One pointed out that with the current flight computer (Borgelt B100) and the old Terra radio, we can't even get an eight hour flight in without draining the TWO 12 amp hour batteries.
Much as I want the transponder (we fly from Jean, very near McCarren Intl, which is a very busy airport!) I have to admit it makes sense to get some lower draw equipment first.

The TT21 is very low drain at only 125mA. You can read my original post describing my test at:

Becker and Trig have nice new radios... Seems strange to throw out what may be one of the lower current draw devices. I'd be sticking a multimeter in there and measuring the actual current draw. When was the last time both batteries were discharge tested? High temps while charging especially can kill VRLA batteries... just thinking where you guys are located. Sad if the sale of the transponder needs to fund a new radio. Darryl |

Hint: the problem is not the B100 ;-) Unless you still have the original GPS engine and don't use it in "GPS powersaver" mode... Yikes, I designed that in ~1989-1990 ! See ya, Dave "YO electric" |

I fly in places where the good days occasionally allow for climbs and some cruising above this. Thanks |

Of course, who would know? |

The TT22 doesn't cost that much more than the TT21. I have a '22 in my
glider and am very happy with it. "Jim" wrote in message ...

However, looking at the specs, there's not a whole lot of difference. TT21 - Idle: 0.15 A; Active 0.28 A TT22 - idle: 0.15 A, active: 0.34 A. Both sets of numbers are at 14VDC - so, 3.9 vs 4.8 Watts when interrogated - which is (hopefully) a fraction of the total time.
