need for a "keep alive" circuit with my avionics suite (not do I need
power for an electronic ignition system). I see that other builders have
put all sorts of things on their battery bus, such as flaps, clocks,
etc. Since I may be missing something here, I'm asking: What does the
"List" think ought to be on a "modern" battery bus and what rationale is
commonly used to justify those selections, please...

What items do you want to run without having the battery
contactor closed? Unless you have an electrically dependent
engine, don't want courtesy lights, electric clocks, hour
meter that runs on oil pressure switch even if the master is
off . . . then perhaps you don't need a battery bus. Its
easy to add if you decide it's needed later.
