    Do a Google search for "capacitor time delay circuit". One of the results of my search turned up this one with a delay of 1.5 seconds. https://www.arrow.com/en/research-and-events/articles/make-a-simple-capacitor-transistor-timing-circuit -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=508045#508045

A legacy electro-mechanical device like we used to build in Cub Scouts? Bob . . . Un impeachable logic: George Carlin asked, "If black boxes survive crashes, why don't they make the whole airplane out of that stuff?"

    From: "Eric Page" <edpav8r@yahoo.com>
    Reviving this thread from a year ago: http://forum.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?t=16777418 I've fleshed out my electrical system architecture diagram and would appreciate another round of checks by the group. Changes since my simplified diagram was posted last year: - Renamed Main Bus to Airframe Bus. - Eliminated the complicated module to switch power to the Airframe Bus, in favor of a simple relay-and-switch arrangement. - Added an Endurance Bus with dual feed paths. - Added an Overvoltage Protection Module in the path from the Rotax Fuse Box X3 Pin 3 to the Battery Bus. - Developed wiring diagrams for the Airframe and Endurance Buses. In addition to any problems you find, I have two specific questions: 1. The Rotax 912iS Installation Manual specifies 30A fuses at the Battery Bus, for the 12AWG wires to the Backup Battery Switch and the Fuse Box X3 Pin 3. Can/should 16AWG fusible links be used instead? 2. Is my use of fusible links acceptable for the Endurance & Airframe Bus feeders at the Battery Bus and the hot side of the Battery Contactor?

    Hi Joe Thank you for reply. Bob: The Buzzer is an electro mechanical: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XBJ3AE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The Arduino is powered by a 12 volt battery going through a converter to make 5 volts for the Arduino. The buzzer is using the 12 volts to operate. We put it on a scope today and saw perturbations of the 5 volts peak to peak of between 10 and 12 volts. We added transorbs and .1 mF ceramic capacitors across the two parallel buzzers and also a .1 mF ceramic capacitor just before the DC to DC converter. Got peak to peak down to 5 to 6 volts. So far it seems to be working OK. Ron P. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=508052#508052

    Subject: Dual Battery Setup
    I am new to this list, but was told to come here for advice on my electrical design for a fuel injected, electronic ignition single engine plane. I have looked at AeroElectric design recommendations but wanted to hear feedback on the following changes ... - Have 2 identical, redundant, in parallel batteries instead of one full and one backup ... I need to weight anyhow - Have 2 identical, redundant, in parallel high pressure fuel pumps - I run an electronic circuit breaker system called VP-X for all components except ignition coils and injectors per SDS EFI manufacturer recommendation - With the VPX, I can switch all components individually in my EFIS, measure amp usage and I have therefore very few switches on the panel My engine start procedure is designed as follows ... - MAIN on - FUEL PUMP(S) on - Fuel pressure CHECK - Starting engine - Oil pressure CHECK My runup procedure is designed as follows ... - Battery CHECK for 1, 2, both by using DPDT battery switch ... leave on both for takeoff, 1 or 2 in cruise - Fuel pumps CHECK for 1, 2, both by using DPDT fuel pump switch ... leave on both for takeoff, 1 or 2 in cruise - Coils CHECK for 1, 2, both by pulling push button circuit breakers ... leave on both for entire flight Duckie Wiring.pdf <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-IE4IEdduPQzDbu89GJGr4noviKF9AWe/view?usp =drivesdk> I have attached my electrical drawing, a draft so be gentle =F0=9F=98=89. P lease take a look but focus on my battery setup as it's different from Bob's design.
