Joe -

We decided not to put a remote on-off  cable. Come to think of it, we  
ought to put a manual one on the tank for maintenance purposes. There is  
an on-off knob on the regulator and that will be easily reached from the  
front seat.

We built a platform just aft of the hat shelf for the two 12 volt  
batteries. Since we have the Hartzell 3-blade prop on an IO-550N, we felt  
the batteries should be that far aft. I'm not sure how the ES-P will  
compare in basic w&b to the ES. We used #2 welding cable for the two power  
feeds to the firewall and the two grounds. The two grounds terminate at  
the firewall ground plate and is tied to the engine compartment ground by  
a 5/16" brass stud thru the firewall. A ground strap goes from that point  
to the engine.

Take a look at some of our pictures at:

By the way, this website is managed by Rob Logan and he will give you a  
chunk of disk space and the use of the software if you want to set up  
something like we and several builders have done. It really is easy to do  
it.

Cheers, and keep us posted on your project.
