I assume when they say lighter-than-air vehicles they don't mean balloons. I
think they mean gliders, which are heavier than air
Probably by not exaggerating the power requirements. Transponders are
significantly less power hungry than than they used to be.
(ask the New Zealanders, transponders have been mandatory in gliders over there

Regarding power consumption, if you're only flying 3 or 4 hours
there's no worry. Thousand K flights may require over 30A/H of
