The Key West product is designed to handle the 18+ amp
output from a Rotax 912/914. It should work just fine
on the SD-8.
I'd really like to talk to the designer/manufacturer
of the Key West regulator but have yet to identify
anyone on net-searches. Has anyone on the list ever
installed a Kew West product? Did the accompanying literature
speak to who makes these critters?
