Is 12.8 AMPs enough ?

[GeorgeC]

Anyone trying these out in experimental aviation circles?

I saw a Luscombe that had an impossibly small panel-mounted battery (wind alternator, no starter...), I wanna say it was a LiFEPO4...

Ohms law sez that the TRT800H-LCD xponder will draw about 18 amps on reply. In this area it will be making a reply about every second or less.

Bull puckey. Ohm's Law says no such thing.

Does duty cycle mean anything to you? You need to take my class in the fallacies and misinterpretations of Ohm's Law. You might want to consider picking up the next few issues of Kitplanes where I explain your errors.

Thanks,

Jim

Don't go misinterpreting radio power output for system electrical power. The manufacturer already did ohm's law and it says <300mA

Finally.. thanks.
