I don't think I'd want to put all my eggs in one basket. Ok so the electricity stays on but the Dynon freaks out or goes up in smoke...all your eggs are still in one basket.

It's all about how much risk you are willing to take, or put on your passengers. If I put a glass panel in my plane, I'd still have a ASI, ALT and compass to help out. Phill
