Default Voltage Regulator replacement

Has anyone replaced their Delco Remy voltage regulator (the old
mechanical type for a 50 amp generator) with a new solid state
type by Zeftronics? CHief aircraft sells them, just wondering
what anyone's experience was.

Mine is old, acting up and charging too high. In the old days I
guess you could clean the contacts and so forth but I'd rather just
replace it.


Little different situation, but my C182L came with a Ford 60A
alternator and a vibrating-point electromechanical regulator. I
installed a Zeftronics solid-state Alternator regulator per STC years
ago, and it has worked flawlessly.
