Thanks Eddie. 👍 All our sponsors enjoy reading about satisfied customers on TeamKitfox. It’s vital feedback as to where they decide to allocate their limited advertising budgets.


Kathy fromEarthX was very positive about being part of the Kitfox community when we first talked at AirVenture 2018. EarthX and Kitfox Aircraft had already had and continue to have a solid and positive business relationship.


EarthX has leaped into the lead for developement and marketing of these powerful but incredibly light weight batteries. They also understand the unique set of requirements aircraft owners need in their plane’s batteries. That's why it is neccessary to spend a little time on EarthX’s website to learn about their battery models specific to aircraft. There are safety features specific to the EarthX aircraft battery line of products.

A little story..... Eddie, you know the guys I’m fortunate enough to build airplanes with in Gilbert,AZ. Two master Kitfox builders for sure. I had already built a battery box and had a light weight battery installed. It was a competitor to EarthX. I won’t mention the name brand but you can guess who it was. My two friends approached me one day awhile back and told me they would not let me even make first flight with that battery installation. They presented me with a brand new EarthX aircraft battery and a new sexy Kitfox Aircraft battery box to mount it in. Even helped me make the swap. Pretty great friends.

When EarthX became a sponsor on this site, I bought a new EarthX battery and Kitfox battery box and will install it in my friends Kitfox. Our local fleet of Kitfox’ is moving into the modern battery age. Also great to increase useful load quickly without having to starve yourself on some horrendous and expensive diet plan.😉

I agree about their customer service and technical response. I wanted to incorporate the battery warning into a warning on the MGL iEFIS. The EarthX manual gives examples of doing this for the Dynon units etc but not MGL. A quick email to them and I had a response once the sun was up in the US and very clearly described what I needed to do. It was very easy to incorporate it into the MGL system and I now have a battery warning on the EFIS and no need to install a light in the panel.

I will add this only works on the MGL simulator at the moment as my EFIS is not yet installed but I have every confidence in the logic and data provided by EarthX.
