The battery was DEAD. I had in fact turned off the Master switch, but it was dead. There wasn't even enough power to make the light in the baggage compartment glow.

Last Wednesday it was fine. I updated the data bases and the battery voltage was 23 V.

Is anything other than the baggage compartment light connected directly to the battery? The airplane is a 1979 Shrike.

Kindest regards,

Bill

Over the years, and 15,000 hours I have learned a couple of "pearls of wisdom" I share with pilots. One is "If you never turn your strobe lights off, you will never leave your master switch on" Smile Yes, the light is connected directly to the battery and will run it down if the switch fails Sad. Happy new Year!!
