I think the best solution to my problem is: Do all of my flight planning and fully charge the iPad on the ground. Keep the iPad out of direct sunlight. And shut it down until you really need the approach plates. I=92ve got traffic on my MFD but no weather. The iPad talks bluetooth to Stratus and this is useful weather = capability. But, there is no compelling reason to have the iPad plugged in and = charging all the time, just power it up when you need it then shut it = down. It brings amazing capability into the cockpit. I also bring amazing capabilities into the cockpit, but without a relief = tube/bottle, I=92d be up the creek! :-) Angier Ames N4ZQ
