>you mention you may offer to sell the AEC9001-1, Scottky Diode Assembly again, any progress?
No. I can't justify that device's production
for reasons of practice, economics and physics.
The thing is fiddly . . . lots of parts with
risk of shorting to mounting surface due to
mis-alignment or damage to insulators. It's
considerably more expensive than the bridge
rectifier in terms of both acquisition and
installation expense. Finally, it really doesn't
add anything to system performance. Yes . . .
slightly lower voltage drop but only during
normal alternator operations where the bus
voltage is high enough that lost energy differences
between the two diode technologies has
is trivial.
The diode bridge was selected many years
ago for it's low cost, low parts count,
robust structure, simple installation
and suitability to task.
The AEC9001 was an discontinued experiment
after the materials for the only production
run were consumed. Suggest you stay with
the diode bridge rectifier. You can get a
package of 4 for $8 delivered to your door.

Un impeachable logic: George Carlin asked, "If black boxes
survive crashes, why don't they make the whole airplane
out of that stuff?"
