Abstract: Assuming the abc conjecture with

e p s i l o n = 1 / 6

, we use elementary methods to show that only finitely many

s

-Cullen numbers are repunits, aside from two known infinite families. More precisely, only finitely many positive integers

s

,

n

,

b

, and

q

with

s, b g e q 2

and

n, q g e q 3

satisfy [C_{s,n} = ns^n + 1 = frac{b^q -1}{b-1}.]
