For Doug Waddingham:

Have you thought of installing a standard  ground power receptacle instead 
of a dedicated battery charge unit?  I installed mine up inside the nose 
gear doors, then made up a 15 ft length of very flexible welding cables 
terminated in battery clamps.  I also added a relay which uses the master 
switch in the aircraft to activate.  This way I keep an auto battery (with 
charger connected)  connected to the plane for all my ground/hanger work, 
and when I'm traveling,  it gives me dead battery insurance.
Regards, Bill Hogarty
