asked if I had considered the Vertical Power VP-50 which sells for about
$1500. I knew about the VP-200 which is $6495 and had considered it out
of my price range. However, after looking at the detailed data available
on the VP web site, the VP-50 really does look interesting and possibly
affordable since there are three of us building this
Sportsman. www.verticalpower.com
So I posted a question on the Vertical Power forum about using the VP-50
with the Bob Nuckolls Z19RB schematic. Here is the reply I got within 2
hours from Marc Ausman, Mr. Vertical Power:

You can use the VP-50 in the same manner as the VP-100 is used with the
Subaru engine. In the docs section of our web site, you'll see a Subaru
section. Use the VP-100 diagram as a reference - it is essentially the
Z-19 diagram, but we designed it with Eggenfellner.
The way we recommend wiring is as follows:
- the wiring specific for the Subaru engine is handled separately from the
VP system.
- the VP system is used to power all the other stuff on your aircraft.
- the VP system is used to monitor the voltage of both batteries. On the
VP-50, use J8 pin 12 input to monitor the aux battery voltage.

Any thoughts from anyone else?

Good evening my friend. I missed getting to OSH this year
but I WILL be there next year. If you still have the same
cell phone number, I'll bug you as soon as I hit the field.
We'll have to get together some evening.
I'm quite certain that the Vertical Power products perform
as advertised are well thought out and there are no safety
issues.
