>God bless you and your crowbar overvoltage module. Yesterday, my RV-8
>(N801RV) with only 48 hours ttsn, popped its 5 amp. alt. field circuit
>breaker. I reset it and watched the volt meter. After about 5 seconds, I
>observed the voltage passing 15 volts and climbing. The breaker tripped
>again. I did not reset it again. I ran down to the Advance Auto this
morning
>and purchased a new voltage regulator. After 10 minutes and $9.95 I was back
>in the air with no damage to the avionics. All is back to normal now.
