Hi

Ok, but sorting this out, you don’t need to power up all the gear from an AC supply once it’s 
in the airplane. The only need for a power supply is on the bench. On the bench you can 
rig things so they sequence up nicely. That gets back to a ~ 100A supply for the bench
as the only need. Since it’s just for testing, I’d go with three of  the switchers.

Right now the airplane is scattered in 3 warehouses, my driveway, the garage and office....Until we get moved, and I have shop space again, if it can't be worked on while on a small bench or table, it doesn't happen. This is a long term return to flight project and it's going to be years before it is close to flight ready. I like weird airplanes and long term projects.
