Good Afternoon Dave,

I have set one for 14.2. That was on the advice of the Concorde battery
folks and the manufacturer of the solid state regulator used on the airplane.

It seems to have worked very well for the last two hundred hours or so that
have been put on the airplane since the installation was made.

Happy Skies,

I've just received Van's variable voltage regulator & will be installing
this. Think I'll set it low, maybe 13.8v, to try and eliminate these
crowbar events. Certainly, 14.8 volts seems to start overcharging the
battery almost immediately & is way overkill. Have others used lower
charging voltages successfully?
