Aspen Avionics Information

[peter]

What explains the overheating issues which have plagued the Aspen?

One example quoting an unfortunate owner:

"Early unit had overheat problem. Mod fixed that. Second unit failed when an internal component overheated and the unit switched to internal battery. Unable to remove power. Unit got VERY hot and overheat condition did not stop until the internal battery died. Not a fun time."

 

 

One isolated report does not make for a "plague."  If this was really an issue it would surely have come out when Aviation Consumer did their independent evaluation of the Aspen equipment.

 

Instead, they recommend the equipment as a "best buy."
