I have a Zeftronics R15V00-A regulator controlling a Hartzel/Plane Power 60 amp alternator and am trying to troubleshoot the alternator dropping off line. The regulator is connected to the alternator ...

As an alternative it looks like Plane Power has an alternative via STC SA10921SC using the ER14-50 alternator. That comes with its own regulator. Would the Zeftronic R15V00 Rev. A work?

Thanks all. My mechanic will be at the hangar on Wednesday. The engine/alternator are on an Alon A2. Is it necessary to pull the left magneto to remove the alternator? I think we have a lead on a ...

Based on the lack of replies I'll go with "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" as it seems to be working OK. John

I have a Zeftronics R15100 voltage regulator that has the following terminals: I-A-S-F. Only three terminals have wires connected to them, I-A-F. For low or high voltage indication it looks like an ...

My Stratux has the GPS module installed. Would there be room for the CP2102? Also, I'm powering the Stratux via the micro USB port. Does the boost/buck converter replace that by going through the C ...

I've also got a Stratux (home built ADS-B receiver) feeding traffic and weather via RS232 to my IFD-540 which then shares it to my ipad, etc... That has a boost/buck converter since the Raspberry ...
