 |
|
I noticed on the newly designed USA Jabiru Web Site the following in the 2200 specification.
• Dual Transistorized Magneto Ignition
• Integrated AC Generator 20 amp
Is this indeed something that has been upgraded?
In particular I like the 20 Amp Generator output.
Does the Transistorized Magneto also possibly mean you can now HAND PROP a Jabiur 2200?

+++ Pete might want to jump in here if he's not too busy but Jabs have always had 'dual transistorized magneto ignition.' No, you can't spin a Jab, any model, fast enough for a hand start. Big cables and an Odyssey 680 do that,
As for the 20 amp alternator: the 20 amp replaced the 15 amp on the 3300 a few years back, there was even a rumor that it was possible to "stack" two of them for those with panels of power-hungry appetites - don't know if that became a possibility or not. Not surprising to conjecture that the 2200 benefited about the same time. Switch came as Jab went from the three-phase to single phase alternator. They weren't going to handle two differently rated alternators when one would do.

The transistorized magnetos are nothing new.
The 2200 has had its alternator upgraded to the 20 amp (same as the 3300)
since July 2007 production.

Pete thanks for the reply on the list.
Yes, I know better now about the transistorized magnetos not changing.
As I have a brand new 2200a that has not been started up yet, is there an exchange or update price on fitting it with the larger alternator? The 20 amp charge rate sounds very nice to me!
I am sure that many on the list will be thinking about asking the same question.
