trying to figure out what the difference is between the skytec e-drive and the nl series...

for my aztec they call for the following starters

in the NL line

149-NL

in the e-drive line

ERZ-8011

I can't for the life of me figure out the difference or what one is better... their website is terrible at explaining the starter characteristics

also is the skytec e-drive the same as the "Kelly aerospace E drive" youtube shows a video of the 149 vs an e drive but I am unsure if the Kelley aerospace is the same one as the skytec...

Im looking for better starts (faster prop rotation) my engines start fine just its slow, generally the engines fire after 2-3 blade passes I believe my technique is ok

battery is new, and the aircraft has the bogart battery cables
