Interesting. My JD charged at 14.8v but I was under the impression that the NAPA charged was something like 14.5v but that might be wrong.

Also, my JD had no pin markings but I understood the NAPA's were marked ...

I sure don't want to be the one who does....

Nothing like electrical smoke in the cockpit to get your attention really fast.

Mine failed in the inside location but I don't think it was the "classic failure" that others have seen. Looks more like a bad connection. You can see some of the discussion here http://www.vansairforce.com/communit...kk#post1028635 starting around post #12.
