An electrician thinking it was only a converter just last week removed mine and installed 24v bulbs . He did not realize it stabilized voltage and I always wondered what it was , now I know. If he

Hi Alan, to be more precise: the optocoupler is between the seriell cable from the pactor and the usb to seriell converter from the laptop. Our SCS Pactor III has seriell connections on both sides,

Thanks Francisco, When you have the chance, could you please take a picture and approximate measurement? (cm or inch) Thanks in advance, sincerely,

Good afternoon, Do you have the Hypalon Velcro Paddle holder available? http://www.abinflatablesusa.com/product/velcro-paddle-holder-dg/ If yes, how much are they and how much would be the shipping

Hi Alan, your SSB is probably connected to the laptop via pactor and seriell to usb converter. What happens when you plug and unplug the usb cable at the laptop? We experienced a leak/the lamp on -

Thanks Walter, It came on again today when motor sailing but now at anchor its off again. The SSB has an isolated power supply. The laptop is powered from a Mastervolt inverter under the nav

No, it's a gadget that keeps the voltage in very tight parameters, preventing dips and spikes. Kent Kent Robertson karkauai@... 828-234-6819 voice/text
