Yes Jeff, that is correct. It was all Roy's doing and seemed overly simple to me but it works wonderfully. With these self exciting 1 wire alternators, I can't see any way for the system to fail short of an alternator failure.

The one who got the back would claim victory! Thanks Pete. I picked up a jump seat from the boneyard. It was out of a Dodge but it's just a bit too wide. Was only $13. Still shopping for another.
