Looking for Cut-Out replacement Voltage Regulator

Post by JoelBenoit » Sat Jan 22, 2022 10:05 am

I'm trying to find the voltage regulator that I think is manufactured by Texas T parts and sold by Langs (part 5055VR) to replace the cut-out on the generator. I've contacted both businesses, but the part is out of stock. Does anyone have one they are willing to sell to me?

They have not been made in about 2 years. However, there is a team of members working on a new design https://mtfca.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=25609
If you need a cut-out replacement NOW! the current trend is to buy a diode that the vendors sell and update an old one or buy a new one from the suppliers
