The wiring diagram that you posted yesterday shows a permanent magnet alternator
(dynamo). Is that what is in the airplane?
If the airplane has a standard alternator with a field winding, you might consider
Bob's Z-11.

and Fuel Pump Con
In the Rotax two stroke engine rectifier/regulator they had two options;
one required a battery, the other didn't. The one that didn't require a
battery had a built in load, a cap, to get the dynamo to produce current.
Anecdotally, many years ago a friend of my son's was building up a Harley
Sportster rat bike. It was the old engine with a generator and magneto. He
brought it to me to put together the electrical system and said he didn't
want to run a battery if he didn't absolutely have to. I found a kit to do
just that, and it was, wait for it..... A big capacitor with a spring mount
so that vibration of the off balance VTwin wouldn't beat it to death. As I
recall the kit was all of $16 back then. I wired it up per instructions and
it worked like a charm.

PAR-36 describes the physical size of the bulb. 4.5 inches or 36 eighths
in diameter.
I haven't installed it yet but I bought one of these to try in my GlaStar:

A couple of the reviewers are using them on planes. They have a
trapezoidal pattern and a flood. I chose the former for landing light use.

Thanks, Rick :-)
Advantage of that one looks to be weight. Here are the light bars I'm trying out from AMZN: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishl ... l_huc_view
I'll keep you posted on how it works.

Guys
Can anybody please explain the difference(s), if any, between regulators
LR3C and SB1A from B&C?

Yes, it is. I have had several health set backs and am just now able to get back
to work on the project.
No, the airplane will have a light weight B&C Alternator and starter. I have not
bought any components yet as I wanted to have a solid plan before buying parts.
I will look at those diagrams. I posted this one because it is very similar
to that on a 1981 Super Cub. I think using something similar to what has
been approved equipment on a Piper product may help me get approval easier if
I can refer to a Piper drawing, and then show my changes. This is my first rodeo,
so I dont have a clue.
