Sound advice Bill =E2=80=93 I would humbly state that the= same advice applies to the Bosch relays you are using. As you may recall, last November my up relay welded itself shut, causing an uncommanded gear retract= ion on the ground. The resulting prop strike grounded my plane for 50 days at a distant airport. Insurance covered the expense but I will be paying higher premiums for years to come. I replaced the Bosch relays with the Lancair-rec= ommended heavy duty automotive style contactors.
