Thought it was a good one. Some posts have pointed out that it is no good. I have discarded it.

That is a cut-out - not a regulator - BIG difference !

Thats one of them cheap generator killers. Throw it away or use it for a diode conversion.
They were $29 new.

i AGREE THIS IS A POOR MODERN PRODUCTION. DO NOT USE THIS. YOU WILL OVERHEAT YOUR GENERATOR AND RUIN A BATTERY.

Send the top can out to Jeff (Admin). He needs them to use in making the new VR’s. It’s much better than having it sit in a bucket in your shed and it helps our hobby.

Jeff was wanting "original" can tops - not repros - he's having new cans produced now.

Its good for a diode update (good insulation) & save as a spare.
