Hi gang
working on my Elec system for my Jab 3300.
The alt on the Jab outputs around 20Amp ( so they say) and a lot of people don't like the standard Jab regulator.
I was thinking of replacing the jab regulator with either the Aussie Powermate or the B&C LR3C-14 regulators.
The Powermate is only good for 8 amps, I don't really understand since the Jab Alt is around 20 amps will this damage it and I will need more than 8 amps ability as I will be flying at night.
From B&C , the LR3C operates as a “quiet,” linear regulator, generating no audio or radio noise (in contrast to switching-type regulators). Second, it provides a vital safeguard for your aircraft electrical system with a solid-state, “crowbar” over voltage protection circuit. And third, the LR3C Controller functions as an important low-voltage monitoring and warning system.
I like the crowbar system and the low voltage warning are also a good Idea. but I cannot find out how many amps this reg is good for as it only talks about a 5 amp CB .??
Am I mixing apples and oranges with all this Amp stuff on the regulators.
I know with all the stuff running I will almost need the full 20 amps at night.
So which one is best suited and why?
thanks
Chris
