My Cornwell dealer showed me this last week and I was super skeptical about it. I'm definitely going to pick one up this week when he stops by.

I wonder if any of our sponsors deal these? If so, maybe we could get a group buy put together. If you are seriously interested in one, post up. Maybe it would be worth it.
Count me in if there is a #Compd sponsor group buy.

So it uses anti-gravity to make a worm hole which allows time to repeat itself over and over, there for the hamsters are running at near light speed with the effort of a gentle stroll?
This is some snazzy stuff!

I was very skeptical when I saw it on the tool truck. Sounds like I need one for the boat. Might need 2 for a class 8 truck

If only Ponder were here to 'splain nano-battery technology and it's role in the advancement of mankind.

Pretty cool little device.

Even if it takes 2 of them I am impressed. Beats carrying batteries or trying to squeeze the start all truck in between rows to get one running for a tire kicker.

Trust me I agree! I work for cummins and man some people's trucks can't sit over night before they are dead

I have tested the three different sizes here. The "diesel" large one is powerful but melted the lead off it while extended cranking a older v8 boat with a totally dead battery and a questionable starter. Had the power but the small leads heat up fast.

The mid size one shown, works well. I'll test that one on a diesel this week and report back.

We are in talks in becoming a dealer and pricing looks great and should come down a bunch. I want to field test the different levels more.

I just ordered one from Premier (the FUSE LED one), with a parts order. I'll let y'all know how it works. It doesn't have as many attachments, but my cost is pretty cheap.

I don't see any reason you couldn't make your own with R/C batteries for much cheaper. Make up some connectors and away you go. http://www.hobbypartz.com/geaceha.html

My time is worth too much to try to make something of this sort. My cost on the FUSE one wasn't much more than those R/C batteries.

If you don't buy from one of our vendors, these people have pretty good pics of the product...... If you can manage to find the product in the picture.
