[TR] Voltage stabilizers

[spamiam at comcast.net]

Trev, 

The electronic device that Moss sells is OK. It regulates adequately and is cheap. The version I had used NO protection. A malfunctioning set of HT ignition wires caused what must have been severe spikes in the electrical system that destroyed my stabilizer. I am not sure what voltage it stabilized to, but I don't think it is precisely 10v. I think it regulates to about 10.5v, but mine died before I thought to check it out. I didn't know it was electronic until I opened it up after it died. 

I designed a different one using an automotive grade 10v regulator, and some extra spike protection. I have been using it for a year and it has been working perfectly. I even made a little printed circuit board so it fits inside the case of the dead one! 

I can tell you more if you want.

Hi Listers....Have seen an advert for an electronic Voltage Stabiliser for the 
Fuelguage/Temp circuits for the TR4s. Have not been able to find it again. 
Could somebody please forward details of said invention to me. 
Thanx......Trev. Hardy....Feilding; New Zealand. 25 Chrysler Brougham;
