Today was the start of week 1 of Project Restart Phase 2. This phase will last through 12/31/2022.
I cleaned up a copy of my Garmin avionics list to remove prices and notes and all the different configuration options except for the two I am considering. I sent the list and some questions to two suppliers for quotes.
Added max and typical currents to each of the items on my list. Added strobe, position and landing lights and current to the list. Added up the maximum and typical or minimum value for both configurations to estimate what alternator size I needed. Max current was 63 and 65 Amps. Minimum or typical was around 32. So I think I had better get the 60 Amp alternator and figure out how I am going to handle an alternator failure. The next step will be to create a list of essential loads.
