I completely agree that redundancy is always desirable, however, for a little while it seemed there was a panic attack taking place in the EU about batteries. Someone else in that area had already tried the single graphene battery but did not provide much in the way of test data to support it aside from flight time. The lack of data is why I gave it a try bit at the same time myself and others over here were continuing our search for other alternatives. The Zippy brand provides at least three with 4000mA, 4500mA, and 5000mA capacities that are sized where two will fit the 920 battery bay. I've made reference to this at least once prior to this post, and posted the dual Zippy battery test data at the Facebook 920 owners group about a week ago.
There are other battery brands that will also fit the 920, some as singles, some as pairs. We were never without a battery or batteries that would fit and fly the 920, but we did seem to be encountering more than a few people that were under the impression they would not be able to fly their 920's because Yuneec was selling an inferior battery product. That Yuneec has some lousy 920 batteries is certainly true but there was no reason for some people to panic or report Yuneec to governmental authorities as one Australian did with a complaint to CASA. They only needed to be personally creative and take the initiative.
Once again, it's nice to see a Yuneec vendor electing to provide an alternative solution but it's interesting they are doing so after independent 920 owners validated alternative battery solutions. They should have been the first to develop those solutions, and disseminated that information to Yuneec dealers world wide.
At this point in time I'm highly supportive of Dougcjohn's efforts in contacting GensAce/Tattu to encourage them to develop and provide a higher C rated battery for the 920 to people in the U.S., as well as those in the EU and UK. It's a much better solution as it allows use of all three power connectors in the 920 and provides 2000mA more capacity than the Zippy 5000mA battery solution. It would also likely be a more stable supply situation. As I've been using the GensAce/Tattu branded batteries for at least 4 years I've come to trust them in every application where they've been used.
