Jim Peace Posted August 1, 2023 Report Share Posted August 1, 2023 MVP-50 backup battery... Friend has one in his Glasair....is this battery easily replaceable by an owner? Is this why the last good number of flights engine data is not logged? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A64Pilot Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 I just saw this. I’d contact EI they are very responsive. @Jim Peace I’ve set up a bunch but don’t know the answer, if your data gets full it overwrites the old data so the last mucho number of hours are alway kept Here is a You tube that shows how to do it. Seems to be the same as older computer motherboards. I don’t have any recent experience with them either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc_B Posted August 28, 2023 Report Share Posted August 28, 2023 Btw, if you have an older MVP50 that has the old display or has issue, get EI to perform an upgrade while they’re at it. New battery, new screen (crisp display on par with Garmin TXi/Xi rather than pixelated), and basically new innards. You can call them for details and cost.
