| Subject: | Z-13/8 in a Long-EZ |
Just wanted to introduce myself to the group. I purchased a flying Long-EZ
and wish to upgrade the panel and rewire aircraft. I purchased the
Aeroelectric Connection a number of years ago and wish to thank Bob for all
of his work and for providing an electronic version as well (nice to not
have to carry about the printed version).
My current plan is to go with Z-13/8. I have an automotive alternator (one
year old), will be removing the vacuum system and replacing it with a SD-8
and am going with ATC fuses.
A box of bits arrived from B and C and I'm sure it won't be the last order.
I'm researching alternators, feed wires to such, battery and starter
contactors, regulators and where to position all of this. I'm also
researching internal vs external regulation on my main alternator.
I've been enjoying reading through the archives and wanted to thank
everyone for their contributions to the list.
Jeff - Long-EZ based in Livermore California

LED Strip lighting is usually made for 12V systems. To convert this for 24/28 volt
systems see the attached pdf.
This is far better than using a stepdown supply or adding a load resistor.

Strangely enough, I did exactly this at work on Thursday. One thing to remember
is that the number of LED's in each of the strips must be the same or the one
with less LEDs in it will be brighter, or even blow.
