Hey Bob,
No kidding (the taking it apart part... yep, in due course!) I just hadn't gotten that far... and this was asked to kinda see who else on here might have one installed and see what their experience had been with the battery replacing. I have the Newark and Allied books out, but you're right, until I dig into it we won't know the type.
BTW we just brought home a 7000 with the bigger screen and I'm REALLY surprised more pilots haven't installed this type of CRT display as the sharpness and clarity is far superior to any of the of the more popular moving maps... and the nice thing is the later versions have Flight Planning Plus software, a flight recorder and of course color... not to mention you can pretty much keep your center stack together without tearing everything to pieces. Now the dilemma will be which one to install, the 5000 or 7000.
"Futile" is a such a discouraging word... I always try and think along the lines of being creatively optimistic.
