I am shopping around for the ADS-B in/out modification for my WAAS equipped G1000 Ovation. Was wondering who else has had the upgrade, any issues, how long it took, who they would recommend and a rough number for what they paid. Thanks!

Even when climbing at 140 KIAS and only 500 FPM, cylinder 5 in my 2006 Ovation keeps pushing 400 or even 405. I have seen pictures of the pixie hole and was wondering if they really helped keep the cylinder temp lower, and if anyone new a place a pixie can find instructions on best way to do one!

Follow up on my original post, thanks to everyone for the input! The batteries were Concorde's. The solenoid tested ok, the battery held a charge of 26 volts even after being off the battery minder for several days. If I then turned on the battery one switch, voltage at the battery dropped to around 4V and nothing came on in the cockpit. Turn batt 1 switch off, voltage back to 26. Changed out the battery and all is fixed, so must have been a bad cell within the battery. Can't complain too much since looking at the logs, the batteries were put in in 2009, unfortunately for me, I just bought the plane in August! Anyway, thanks to all for the advice, at least I learned a little more about the plane and the electrics!

Hi all! Have just started flying an Ovation with about 20 hours under my belt. Went to fly the other day and turned on the master with battery 1 with good voltage, the G1000 came on line, everything looked normal, then when I went to start just as I turned the key, everything went black and no power. Switched to battery 2 and everything started fine with normal voltages and the alternator was charging normally. I did a quick flight then after shutting down, switched to battery 1 again and no juice. The battery had normal charge and was working fine before the sudden loss of electrics. Any tips on things to look at before paying a local non-mooney mechanic to troubleshoot? Thanks!
