Am I missing something and also need a starter contactor with this set-up? Ross Mickey N9PT RV-6A Sent from my iPad On Jun 21, 2015, at 10:32 PM, Robert L.

These devices have been common to the automotive industry for decades and feature low area, high pressure contacts much more suited to withstanding starter inrush currents due to their higher closing pressures and low mass to minimize bounce. Location of choice is on the firewall where the BAT terminal of hte contactor becomes the distribution point for bringing battery+ wire to the bus.

So an external one is not required. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=444013#444013 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 09:06:45 PM PST US Subject: AeroElectric-List: Re: Fwd: [Bearhawk] Pacer progress From: "mmoyle" No smoke..... Every thing functions.... Haven't powered up the radio yet. I'd like to have an antenna connected before closing the breaker.... Marv gifted me The Bob's book. Arrived in the mail today. Another manual to digest.... Thank you Marv and Bob. When I get to the Bearhawk harness I will be better edge-you-ma-kate'd. One odd thing I found today. Have installed a dimmer rheostat for the Ei components. The engine monitor dims nicely.....thing is the Ei USB power supply is opposite. It gets bright as the engine monitor gets dim??. Don't know if I made a mistake...some ting Wong? One question I've asked on the shortwing and Bearhawk group.... No answer. Hour meter. The Ei engine monitor is programmed with the actual total time on the aircraft. Do I need a separate hour meter? Not having fresh trout for dinner......
