Check polarity and voltage before connecting any battery not
purchased from Altus Metrum or Spark Fun.
- By default, we use the unregulated output of the battery directly
- to fire ejection charges. This works marvelously with standard
- low-current e-matches like the J-Tek from MJG Technologies, and with
- Quest Q2G2 igniters. However, if you want or need to use a separate
- pyro battery, check out the “External Pyro Battery” section in this
- manual for instructions on how to wire that up. The altimeters are
- designed to work with an external pyro battery of no more than 15 volts.

Ejection charges are wired directly to the screw terminal block
at the aft end of the altimeter. You'll need a very small straight
