Ive used a similar product that is a little less refined (no hole die cut in on
end to wrap a nearby tube) and found it to be very useful for all sorts of wrapping
tasks.

Ive always much preferred the 1/2 wide and have found it in black, red and green
colors. Easily cuts to your desired length with a sharp knife or scissor.
And yes, 8 is a bit long for all many / most wire bundles.
The spec on the 3M branded stuff is 93C.

I stopped by HD just this weekend and struggled to find the first product referenced,
in all the normal places, like in the electrical area near the tie wraps.
Finally ran across it on an end cap randomly placed near the windows and doors.

My ducati VR charging light glows (as opposed to going out fully) for
between 30 seconds and over a minute after start up. My Dynon says that it
is providing the normal voltage.
I am told that a glowing light is a symptom of pending failure.
If this is the case I need to change the VR. (I have a bandC VR on order
and will have to remove my OVP because the bandc has an integral OVP)
I also have a John Deere VR which I bought as a spare. My question is
about the connection of the JD VR
The ducati is as follows:
G - dynamo
G - dynamo
C - charging light 22awg and 12AWG to capacitor
B - 12 AWG to capacitor
R - 12 AWG Capacitor
Is this the correct wiring for the JD? (product of web research)
AC - Dynamo (equivalent to G)
AC - Dynamo (equivalent to G)
L - light 22AWG - (equivalent to C)
B+ - Capacitor 12 AWG (equivalent to B)
IGW - Capicitor 12 AWG (equivalent to R)
Second question: I have a 12v 20AH AGM battery. I see from the web that
the JD VR outputs a higher voltage than the Ducati. Is this an issue for
my battery?
Thanks
Will

I doubt that. That 'warning' circuit is exceedingly
crude . . . I don't even recommend hooking the thing
up. ACTIVE NOTIFICATION of voltage abnormality
is your primary monitoring system. I'd ignore the
light.

Why not leave your current regulator place
until the B&C unit is installed.

What voltage values are cited? It's
unlikely that the JD will not be suited
to task but why bother?

Hello all,
My buddy is building a light carbon fuselage airplane.
The mounting of the comm antenna is envisaged in the fiberglass fin, but
in order to save the 0.5 kg of RG 58 to the tail, we are wondering
whether some discreet antenna could be glued to the underside of the
cockpit canopy?
Or maybe some not-too-lossy lighter coaxial and connectors could be used?
Any advice appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
.--
Best regards,
Gilles
