First up thanks for the replies.
2nd up everyone here has much more knowledge about all this, so I need a bit of hand holding.
3 Yes I could use a ic to ref the voltage.
3a 5.6 vs 5.1
3b IN82x temperature compensated zener diode ,not at Dick Smith or Jaycar
4 The idea is to make a website with easy to follow instruction for aviation nuts, with no electonics experience.
5 I had made a prototype with a scr case anode soldered to a spade connector making it truly small with no pcb etc and able to be plugged into a 10amp resetable circuit breaker (range avai 3,5,10,15) >>>>> I just lookup the resetable breaker not good news 500% of rating 1.5 seconds hmmmm 50amp short, so the new idea is one crowbar per 3 or 5amp breaker ...
Thanks again I have to go through the info again
