Hello,



I am finalizing a single alt dual battery installation in my Lancair  

360 and generally following the diagram in figure 17.6. According to  

this diagram, with both the aux bat and main bat contactors open, the  

aux battery is isolated from the endurance bus and essentially reduces  

total endurance by half. Why not tie both batteries together to feed  

the endurance bus through the E-Bus Alt Feed Switch? Not only do you  

have both batteries working for you, but the current drain from the  

aux bat contactor is eliminated.



I'm definitely electrically challenged so what am I missing here?



Thanks



Angier Ames
