From: "donjohnston" I've been looking for an auxiliary power port (courtesy port). All the ones I see are advertised for use in 12v electrical systems. But I'm 24v. For example: http://www.amazon.com/Accessory-Outlet-Lighter-Marine-Motorcycle/dp/B005GSFK6U But these are passive devices, right? As long as I keep the current within the correct values, shouldn't it work with no problems? -Don Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=419895#419895 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 08:01:11 PM PST US Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: 24v aux power port?

From: "Jeff B." Using a lighter socket on a 24V system is possible, but invites disaster. I did a quick survey around the house and while most of the lighter socket plugs I found work with 24Vdc, it would be my luck that I'd find one that didn't, the hard way (for example, my ham radio HT which takes 16.8V max). Have you considered using a 24-12V DC-DC converter wired up behind the socket, or do you need 24V for accessories? -Jeff- On Thu, Mar 6, 2014 at 8:07 PM, donjohnston wrote: > don@velocity-xl.com> > > I've been looking for an auxiliary power port (courtesy port).

I'm also interested how to splice three wires into a single wire. I assume that's been covered a number of time but my searching technique on the forum may need a little help. I saw a good article on the www.aeroelectric.com/ on doing a simple two wire solder splice but I didn't see one on this particular issue. My radio (Flightline FL-760) has two power connections in the DSUB connector that I need to splice into the single power wire. I also need three grounds pins on the DSUB spliced into the ground wire. I'm using machined DSUB pins and rotary crimp tool on the connector side.

Google "Solder sleeve". There are a few YouTube videos out there that show how to use them in this exact application.
