[Wing] Battery prices

[Jim Oke]

Hmm; I have an Odessey battery in my RV project and the temperature
certainly drops below freezing "just occasionally" here in Winnipeg. So
after awhile longer in the shop, I'll be able to report one way or another
about Odessey batteries and cold weather when I start flying.

weather, mosquitoes, mud, etc.)
