However recently alternator field breaker has started popping more and more frequently. After swapping alternator and breaker and using a heatgun on the OVP I've determined that the OVP triggers when getting hot. So I figured I'd just build a new one. However the MSB4991 is obsolete and no longer available from Mouser and DigiKey. Is that the reason for this newer OVP circuit? Much higher parts count. I really like the original simple compact circuit. I had it mounted on top of the engine close to the alternator. Maybe I should just move it into the cockpit?
