Backup battery died after 3hours Have to have Aircraft Spruce Replace it G5 and battery purchase was in March 2022
First battery I got was dead out of the box and would not charge. I had to pay for shipping to return it, which was annoying. 2nd one is working fine so far...
GARMIN G5 BACK UP BATTERY
The battery failed after just 5 months. At $220 a pop, this isnt acceptable.
Aircraft Spruce gets 5 stars, Garmin 2. The batteries are very expensive and unreliable. The last one failed after 2 years of light use. Garmin needs to find somebody else to make their batteries. To be fair, the battery installed easily, worked properly and I received what I expected. Unfortunately, it may not last very long. At least they are readily available and easy to replace.
GARMIN G5 BACK UP BATTERY
This Garmin product has been quite the disappointment. I have 3 G-5’s installed and two batteries have already become unserviceable and needed replacement at a cost of over $400 USD. After installing the two “new” batteries neither of them will attain a 100% charge and continue to discharge at a very high rate requiring me to regularly charge the batteries while connected to an external charger. All three G-5’s have the latest firmware update too. The strange thing is that the original battery installed in one of the G-5’s continues to function as advertised. I would not purchase another one of these batteries until Garmin addresses this problem which they are already aware of.

Per Garmin there is no specific shelf life for this battery as there can be different atmospheric conditions. Garmin does not recommend prolonged storage of these batteries.
No, this battery is not considered hazmat goods.
Garmin does not provide a timeline on the replacement. We would recommend replacement after the battery can hold no more than 80% charge.
The battery has its own input on the G5. The GMU 11 will be wired through the 9 pin connector
No, this is intended as a back up only. The G5 requires connection to aircraft power for operation.
No, that is not available. It can only be charged while on the G5.
Yes its the same. Part # 11-14314 (010-12493-02) is the current battery that will work for all G5's.
