I'm about to dive into the Stratux world. Not having held the hardware in my hand, I'm still trying to understand a few things. One is, why is everyone using batteries? Is it possible/practical to plan to use a cigarette lighter/USB adapter to power the unit, or is there some reason batteries are necessary?

Thanks, OldPilot. I've got USB power ports scattered all over my plane, so that'll be my plan. I may consider carrying a battery as a backup, but I don't think I'll have it in the loop at all times.
