I purchased an IO 550N with 24v components and I am planning a 12V system for my Legacy. The components have 17 hrs on them so I would like to reuse if possible. Since voltage control is provided by the voltage regulator which is separate for most aircraft alternates, in theory my new 12V B&C regulator should be able to control the alternate output to 12V ????? I got the impression that things made not be all that different when I received my new standby alternate from B&C and it was label 12V/24V (dual purpose application) - I do not mind sending for new alt and starter but if not necessary would like to spend the money on x amount of other things.
