In 2012 the evolution began by Piper Aircraft, Inc. upgrading Mirage, Matrix and Seneca models to Concorde batteries. Concorde is pleased to announce Piper has completed the transition and Concorde batteries are now the Original Equipment battery on all new production aircraft.
RG24-20 (Piper P/N 601-923) is Concorde’s 19 Ah Sealed Lead Acid RG® (recombinant gas) battery and the NEW Original Equipment starting battery on the Piper Seneca. The Seneca has also been upgraded with emergency battery RG-132 (Piper P/N 601-924).
The Piper Seminole’s new Original Equipment batteries are the RG24-15M (Piper P/N 601-926) 13.6 Ah main starting battery and the 6 Ah RG-132 emergency battery.
Piper’s Archer is now running with Concorde’s RG24-11M 11 Ah RG® Series main battery and the RG-132 emergency battery.
Concorde’s 16 Ah RG24-17 (Piper P/N 601-919) is Original Equipment on the Mirage and the Matrix aircraft. Piper also released Piper Service Letter 1128 approving upgrades to the increased capacity battery on Piper models PA-46-350P and PA-46-350T with Piper Kit 88495.
