"BTW FTDK, I noticed your triple redundant GPS systems the other day.....you need a HD alternator to drive that lot????

Jamjar - seems to drain very little current - the alternator has no difficulties powering it. The LS800 has a solid state Hard Drive and the computer itself has no cooling fans etc. The power supply to both the computer and the 296 seem to be just keeping a trickle charge up to the respective batteries.
