OK,

I will ask the question before I hook up power.  Want to make sure that the appropriate breaker is a 5 amp one.  

SkyView System no battery       - 3.5 amps
SkyView with back up battery    - 1.5 amps (additional)

I currently have the Skyview, battery, EMS, and GPS antenna.  

I use the Approach Stack wire system.  It has a label, on a power wire, which shows a 7.5 amps (Pge 4-6 shows this should be sufficient for the majority of the system).

Could you please confirm   :)  Tim

5A should be sufficient if you have a battery. If you don't, then the system draws a lot more current as you crank the engine, so we like to see 7.5A in that case.
