Hi Group,
I am planning to use the MGL Voyager for my RV8. The plan is to use the Voyager as a replacement for all instruments. (Supplemented with the legally required steam gages)
The MGL site states "One input to 12V nominal supply. System operates from 6V to 28V." This seems to accommodate for a power dip during engine start (assumption).
I wonder if the MGL is 'approved' for staying on during engine start and if people currently flying with the Voyager (or Odyssey) are using a backup battery for this purpose. I need the unit to stay on, to be able to read the oil pressure.
What are the operational experiences with this?
Kind regards,
Duncan
