    Subject: HEADSET POWER SUPPLY
    From: "user9253" <fransew@gmail.com>
    A friend of mine wants to power his David Clark headsets from 14 VDC aircraft power instead of using the 9 volt battery box that came with the headset. He said that the electronics inside of the headset have been replaced, so the model number of the headset is irrelevant. My question is, can the headsets be powered directly by 14 VDC aircraft power, or should the voltage be dropped to 9 VDC and some filter capacitors added? Thanks, Joe -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=495209#495209

The safe thing to do is duplicate the obvious and provide a quiet 9v source. It's a low-risk experiment . . . it will either be quiet enough . . . or not. Start here: Emacs! The 3-terminal regulators are powerful noise filters in themselves. Likelihood of success is high. Make sure there is a common ground between head-set plug shells and the (-) lead to the 9v battery. There is a remote chance that the audio amplifier does not share common ground with the ship's audio grounds. Bob . . .

LM7809 would give 9V output. Wired similar to the 317, with in/GND/out. I just used an LM7805 to power a serial output GPS puck (5V power supply required), used as position source for a GRT HX EFIS. No external components, no risk of drift, etc. In extremely low current applications like mine, I could get away with no heat sink. Might be different with the Bose; I have no idea on its power consumption. Charlie -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

No hard and fast rule . . . both breakers and fuses can be had in a range of trip profiles. I've tested the ATO/ATC30 plastic fuses against the miniature breakers popular in aircraft with a goal of at least 3x head-room with a 100A crowbar event. I couldn't find my favorite 300A HE sensor but did find a 400A that will let me repeat the bench tests but I'll take a look at the ATO40 fuse also. Bob . . .
