Paramotoring PPG - Technical modifications

 "WJ spare battery starter kit" for WJ Simon RR or XC , Spider el. 2003 or Apache 2004, 2005 models.

Have ever gone to your take off field, unpacked, set up just to find out that you battery is weak and will not crank the prop over at sufficient speed to get your machine going? I bet you did and so did I many times. This happens often in winter if you paramotor is stored in unheated garage or if it gets very cold as it is transported to the field. One will then try to hand prop the machine that is quite dangerous especially if you are by your self or try to use jumper cables and car battery to produce wonderful sparks and electrical arches as you fumble around trying to connect the high Amp wires. Well, no more! 

I have designed a "WJ spare battery starter kit". This includes 1 brand spanking new 12 V 7 A battery + wires to fit the new battery on one end and starter connectors on the other + proper charger or suggestion on how to alter the charger that came with your machine so you can use it to charge battery in your "WJ spare battery starter kit".  This is how this works:

  • You will disconnect the bullet connectors on the starter wires

  • You will attach the "spare battery starter kit" wires to the starter motor wires.

  • You will attach one cable to the batter and touch the other battery terminal with the other wire

  • You will run it for while to re-charge the battery that is part of you machine or carefully  reach in and disconnect the "spare battery starter kit" wires from starter motor and re-connect the starter motor with battery box.

  • You will then enjoy the flight

The cost is $ 79 Cad for the whole kit - if you have your own charger or $ 94 if you want me to supply charger with the kit. To convert $ CAD to other currencies click here. 

Let me know by email if you are interested or wish to order. 

Take care Andre
