That way you couldn't ever hit your 14V system with a 28V boost. You could also just use the 12V connector for charging. It may require that your connectors have switches close to them. Noel... always looking for ways to confuse. :-) -----Original Message----- From: owner-aeroelectric-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-aeroelectric-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Robert L.

Sorry . . . been out of town for a couple days. Dr. Dee had to move her offices at the college. I've been helping with cleaning, painting and repairing. Yeah, they do have folks that take care of those things, when it works into their schedule. We got it move-in-ready in two days. The scheme you show would work too.

I can't find it but it would answer most of my D-Sub concerns behind the instrument panel. Any suggestions as to source amiably respected.......

Digikey says that the p2015 is non-stock, but is a 22ufd 6.3v tantalum capacitor. Has anyone resolved this discrepancy and found an updated digikey part number? This is c111 in the drawings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message aeroelectric-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/AeroElectric-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/aeroelectric-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/aeroelectric-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
