The new Fromeco Wolverine Switch will change the way you approach your aircraft setup. The Wolverine is: 2 solid-state "fail-safe" style switches, 2 charge jacks, and advanced battery redundancy (sharing) circuitry, all incorporated into one convenient package.

Measureing just 63 mm or 2.5 in. from mounting hole to mounting hole, the Wolverine is only three-fourths the legnth of two JR style mechanical switches placed end-to-end. At 0.6 oz (17 grams) it is also considerably lighter.

The Wolverine has 2 battery inputs and can be used with any battery type with a voltage up to 10 VDC. Each battery input feeds its own "fail-safe" switch circuit, the same kind used for Fromeco's Badger Switch. Each switch circuit is rated at 15 A, and is completely independent of the other. Power then flows to Fromeco's power sharing circuits, which are completely redundent. The Wolverine can be customized with up to 3 outputs.

The Wolverine was developed to alleviate the problem of unbalanced regulators creating an unequal draw upon the batteries (Note: regulators must still be reasionably balanced in systems using twin regulators). Fromeco felt that a single circuit board, twin switch solution with built-in sharing provided an elegant solution rather than placeing more components between the battery and regulator.

The Wolverine can be used with any battery that is under 10 V when fully charged. NiCad, NiMH, Li-Ion, and Ly-Poly work well with the Wolverine Switch sytem. The Wolverine will let you use different sized batteries in the same system (ex. a 35% plane can be outfitted with a 4800 mA-hr and a 2400 mA-hr battery powering the reciever in unison).

While the Wolverine is larger than a single Standard JR Heavy duty switch, it is smaller and ligher than the 2 HD switches that it replaces. Also, installation is cleaner and easier as a single unit.
