Can someone pipe in with their opinion on whether I should install a 35 amp, 60 amp or some other size alternator on my RV9A. I intend to run dual GRT EFIS, Garmin 496, SL40 comm, Garmin GTX330 transponder, ELT, nav/position/strobe and landing lights, and perhaps a circuit or two for miscellaneous gadgets in the cockpit that I am not sure about yet (i.e. XM radio, fan motor for Arctic Cooler, laptop or some other various item that needs power I may not be thinking about at the moment).
I do not wish to have a problem powering everything but also do not want to haul around a heavy alternator that will have more capacity than I need. So what say you? What would work best given this equipment list?
