Sorry I always mix up amp vs volts... but yes that is what I was thinking however, think about being able to just plug in you lathe w/o using a charger...

like right now I have 2 pulsars and a turbo I have my two pulsars charge'n away and my turbo does double duty of discharge and running my lathe... would it be cool just to plug in the lathe so I can still charge 2x discharge 1x and cut all at the sametime????

I recently got this box, great little setup. Clean, the LEDs are BRIGHT x.x..lol, pretty straight foward. Now only if was had one of our forum engineers figuer out how we could stuff a voltage reducer/regulator into this thing so that we could plug a motor lathe into it..that would be SWEEET!

Why not just get a 55t lathe motor that runs on 12v?

Went looking for one of those 55turn lathe motors. It seems as if Integy has the market cornered on this one and they dont have any and it seems no one else does either heh. If somone knows where I can get one..please shoot me the link.

I can't believe that companies are making them and people in this hobby are buying them... Guess it's the same crowd that buys the RTR's....

Go to RS, get the stuff and build it yourself, not too hard to drill a few holes and solder a few wires....

For the integy box, it will actually end up cheaper than if you were to build it yourself from radioshack supplies. Not to mention you don't get the cool blue box with it

You're right. I did build one of these over a year ago from Radio Shack parts and it cost me about $30 by the time I was done. And that's without any switches, lights, or fuses. I'm not a fan of Integy stuff, but this looks like a good deal. It'd be hard to screw one of these up and it cost less than the materials for the average guys to build it.

Like I said...I'd rather spend 26 bucks and not have to screw with building it. I got better things to do

I actually did enjoy building mine. But it's not perfect and has no switches, which would be nice for tire warmers. I may end up buying one anyways.

I'd love to know where to get an assortment of boxes like this Integy one.. My Radio Shack only had black boxes, and the sizes were a bit too deep. I'd actually prefer them to be a little lower profile.

Anyway Im really happy with mine. Close if not the same price as a do-it-yourselfer from radio shack, it has switches, fuses, pretty blue lights and..its got a snazzy blue case which is my favorite color =P. Oh and for the record I own no RTRs...though I should mention that particular section of the market are the folks that REALLY are the bang behind the buck in the RC market. So thank them..they foot the bill for a great deal of the racing-non-basher innovations you see in the hobby today.
