The Garmin and Dynon systems typically have a light weight Lithium Ion
backup battery that can keep them operating for 45 minutes or longer.
That shouldn't add more than 2 lbs to the installation.

You're right Jeff, at least on the SkyView. The SkyView has a small
battery pack behind the panel that the unit reminds you to test at least
once after installation. It has 4 LI-ON 18650 cells as I recall. The
unit in the RV10 right screen did not test well. I removed it and took
it to the battery store (where I work, part time, and the store owner
owns the RV10) to check it out. The owner instructed me to open it up
and see what the problem was. No luck. He asked me to rebuild it. No
luck. Rebuilt it a second time. No luck. He finally purchased a new one
at $160. Thing is if we would have just sent it back they would have
replaced it under warranty. Glad it wasn't my $160.
