M20F Posted May 8, 2016 Report Posted May 8, 2016 Need to change mine and thinking of Planepower. Looking for model # and thoughts. I have LED landing light but the nav/strobes/etc are over powering the load a bit and I am having some other issues with existing so just want to replace it with a new one. Quote
Browncbr1 Posted May 9, 2016 Report Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) SAL12-70 comes with voltage regulator and you'll have to use a little deductive reasoning by comparing your original wiring schematic to the one that comes with the kit.. pay close attention to the mounting bracket and spacers orientation Edited May 9, 2016 by Browncbr1 Quote
BRBENNETT Posted May 10, 2016 Report Posted May 10, 2016 I installed this kit into my M20F, it works great! Really pay attention to the grounding / bonding connections as these are critical to the system working correctly. Quote
M20F Posted May 11, 2016 Author Report Posted May 11, 2016 Didn't go with Planepower as the existing decided to finally died enroute to RIC this weekend. Got a overhauled replacement on easily enough though I cried a bit on the cost as I would have preferred to replace myself and have my A&P sign off. I am now in the mindset I should get a spare voltage regulator to carry around. Anyone know a good source of those? Quote
carusoam Posted May 11, 2016 Report Posted May 11, 2016 Mike, are you familiar with the Zeftronics VRs? 1) modern up to date regulator. 2) same footprint. 3) Remote LED status output. 4) Not available for some Mooney applications. 5) miles ahead of the mid 60's VR that was on my C. https://www.zeftronics.com/product-category/alternator-controllers/ Best regards, -a- Quote
