I'll pop over to WW soon and say hello, perhaps we can get a 4 ship up in the air.
At this time I've given up with the Article 10 exemption as getting it or entering
into any dialog takes longer than getting a pilots license. (Why they cant
just approach it in the same way as other countries is beyond me, and re-painting
the a/c is a PITA).
Funny how they seem to grant these exemptions if you own a Spitfire or Mustang
etc even if the a/c isn't wearing a colour scheme the airframe flew with back
in the day?!!
Warren, good to hear from you hope all is well there!

| Subject: | Simple SCUBA Tank Air Fill |
I have used a paintball SCUBA fill adapter for many years on my CJ. Having a Schrader
valve or the stock valve does not matter. Here is an example of the Paintball
SCUBA Fill Station:
http://www.amazon.com/Scuba-Station-NITRO-3000psi-4500psi/dp/B00AC4YSUC/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1404319397&sr=8-8&keywords=paintball+scuba+fill+station
The knob on the side is a pressure relief valve that allows you to remove the fitting
on the aircraft after filling the main air tank.
I changed the hose quick connect on mine to be a standard 1/8 quick disconnect.
That way I can remove the hose from the adapter as they fit in the lunch box
in the plane better.
I have a Schrader on my CJ. You MUST use the High Pressure 6116 Schrader adapter
on the airplane end.
http://www.skygeek.com/schrader-6116-high-pressure-inflating-connection.html
You will need to have a high pressure hose made with a working pressure of 3000
psi (SCUBA tank pressure). I had mine made at a local Caterpillar dealer that
has a hose making facility on site. Any place that makes hydraulic hoses can
make them. If you don't have one close by, contact me off list and I can have
one made here.
Craig
Simple, easy to use and the total cost is around $60.

The inverter for the front cockpit of my airplane had gone bad, so the
previous owner moved the inverter for the rear cockpit to the front. But
the front and back are 2 different inverters an SBL-40 (for the front) and
the SBL-53 (for the rear). The only difference between the 2 according to
the manual is the voltage tolerance, the SBL-40 is +/- 4% and the SBL-53
+/- 10%.
I'm assuming it's becuase the frot inverter needs to power both the AI, and
the DG.
Here's my question, what's the problem with using a 53 for the front? Which
is how I'm currently configured. The one that went bad was also a 53 so my
plane basically had 2 53's front and back.

I know that their are US equivalents for the gear indicator bulbs. Can
someone remind me of the part # and where I can get them.

While we are at it, are there any LED equivalents so that they don't keep
burning out all the time?

The -X in the inverters is basically their wattage. You can use the back one
in the front.
Bud Forester at one time wanted to come up with a solid state inverter that c
ould be housed in the mechanical inverter's shell. It was a good idea... Nee
d to check back with him.

Hi Ernie,
I believe you are looking for the GE 1864 bulb (28V bayonet type)
The spruce P/N 11-04171 ($1.66 ea.).

The standard indicator bulb in the CJ is the GE 313, a slightly better
one is the GE 1846 (longer life =93 maybe). Better yet is the
SuperBriteleds.com B9s series LED bulb.

Hi Ernie;
I think you may have that backwards. The front inverter (behind the
seat) is the SBL 53 which operates the front horizon and the complete
gyro compass system. The SBL 40 (aft RH access panel) operates only
the rear gyro horizon.

Contact Jim Bernier. He knows of someone who can repair the inverter.
See Doug Sapp=99s post of 30/04/14.
