Hey  Pete,

   

  On returning from Oshkosh (good to see you guys) I noticed that my battery was not charging at the usuasal 14.1 volts, anyways I did my best to lighten my electrical load and when we landed we did a once over on the engine compartment and did not find anything out of order.  I was able to replace the battery (Walmart) and fly home,  I was sort of thinking that my battery from 2007 had bit the dust, however, my new battery discharged as well and did not show 14.1 v in terms a stewady charging state.

   

  Any ideas or insight?  I searched the manual on line but didn't find anything difinitive, could my regulator be shot or acting up?

   

  Thanks,

Jeff:



If it was not charging at 14.1 VDC what was the voltage indication?

Do you have an AMMETER?  Does it show + & - when in operation?

Are you running a separate VR?
