Which one do you have? I'd like to be able to plug in the plane for exploring the avionics without having the engine running.

When I bought the plane, the Tecnam guys recommended the power supply linked below. I have been using it for years with no problems at all. It is electronically noisy when in use so don't plan on listening to your radios when it's on.

Aircraft Spruce and Specialty JAC2512-CEC 11 05084 12v power supply. Cessna style three pin plug. I have one and have used it extensively for the same reason. I always pull the breaker for the primary fuel pump when I am doing this otherwise the pump is running for no reason. I also flag the breaker so I don't forget about it. By accident I have found that in my P2008 I can start the plane without the primary pump and it will run up to about 4000 rpm before the engine sputters due to lack of fuel. But anyway I have found the power supply to be a good purchase.

Used it for years in my Sportcruiser before the Astore. Runs all electronics if I keep Nav/Com off. |

The said charger is good for Lead acid batteries and we have a Lithium batter in Astore does it work for charging the battery?
