I have seen numerous schematics for individual 5v regulators, but none have the capacity I would like to see. I would really appreciate it if the gurus on the list (especially you, Bob!) would point me to a schematic for a 12volt input, 10A, 5V output regulator/power supply. Thanks in advance!

Sam Staton You might want to explore this one. It seems to exceed your specs, and is a sealed weather tight unit. It will, perhaps, cost no more than a DIY supply. http://www.amazon.com/gp/cart/view.html/ref=lh_cart Roger ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 06:41:21 AM PST US Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: 5 volt buss for my aircraft From: Tim Andres If by chance you are using a GRT EIS, it provides a 5v source.

Tim This is true, but I do not believe that it is rated for a 10A output.

It would be helpful to know more details. Is this 10A figure based on a load analysis of anticipated loads or just a CYAWAG? 10A is a LOT of 5v snort. How many outlets and/or bus distribution taps are anticipated? I presume some of these loads are hard mounted devices and would be best powered from a distribution bus . . . while others will be loose hardware powered from connectors (USB sockets?). Are ANY of these devices anticipated to be extra useful for comfortable termination of flight? In other words, are there any devices that should powered though conduits that enjoy maximum isolation from propagation of failures experienced in other systems? Bob . . .

I have designed dedicated USB connections to keep my iPad and iPhone charged. The iPad needs 2.1A, and the iPhone needs 1-2A. I have an SD-card based MP3 player that needs 5V - maybe 1A. This brings the load to almost 5A. Doubling the capacity seemed like a good idea. The loads definitely will not be critical to flight. Open to any suggestions.

I am just planning of having a "co-pilot area" on the right side with all the gadgets that has to be powered and charged while flying and camping. Why not put two or three separate 5 volt thingies in there for redundancy? Instead of one, hot, beefy thing.
