Hi Jerry,
            I use a small 9 volt dry battery so fuses are not needed, 
rig/de-rig is not a problem and at 95.00 its no going to break the 
bank. Anybody interested the Email address is alan.cozens@which.net

                                 Build well, fly safe.
                    
                            Regards,
                                          Kevin.

  I have one of those stall warners and it works fine however:

  The unit is wired so that +12v is taken to the vane for sitching so 
for people like me who de-rig all the time the plug between the wing and 
fuselage can be live which means I have blown three fuses to date.

  I think it would have been better to switch using the -ve!

  I have to say also that I am less than happy about the effect on the 
aerofoil.

  I have been looking at putting a low pressure pick up on my wing which 
I think is in line with the Europa factory thinking. I hope to have 
something to test in about 4 weeks. It would be a lot cheaper to make 
than the American AOA indicator is to buy and less obtrusive than Alan 
Cozens unit which is very affordable.

  A couple of my friends (customers) have bought the Angle of Attack 
Indicators from the States. People have been very impressed with the one 
that's flying and so I have been peursuaded to become a dealer. I dont 
hold any stock yet but I am told delivery is very quick. Price is 890 
dollars + shipping and VAT for the sport version which seems the most 
popular.

      Hi everbody
                        Anybody in the process of fitting your 912/ 
912s/ instrument panel, and maybe considering the carb heat kit from 
skydrive with the factory cold air box, be sure NOT to put anything 
through the firewall that may get in the way.Having followed the subject 
I decided to do the mod and was lucky.I have also added a Alan Cozens 
stall warner to the port wing on G-OKEV tri-gear and it works very well 
plus its affordable.
                                                         Build well, fly 
safe.

                                        Regards
                                                     Kevin
