5. Will a Tesla™ Turbo Start™ spool up a turbine engine? Nothing will start a turbine engine faster or safer than the right Tesla™ Turbo Start™. Not only will it eliminate hot starts, but it will extend the life of your starter, your engine and your battery while reducing maintenance. The Turbo Start™ senses the impedance from the starter/generator. - Page 31 Unit should never be allowed to discharge fully. In-fi eld use, it receives a dc back charge directly from a running engine. When not in use, unit should be plugged into ac power (outlet) all the time. Tesla™ systems will retain 80% of their capacity after one year of storage.
