A little while back I was recommended by several forum readers to buy the OFNA 12V True-Start starterbos if I wanted to buy a box.

I now have it from Tower (Live in Denmark so shipping is a good 10 days) :shrug:

I installed a 12V 7 Ah battery in the box and Man!! this starter is STRONG!!!!! :boxing:

I can't believe it !! No more pulling the cord (except when rare stallings far away from the box)

I can for sure recommend anyone to get this box. The multiple motor mounts makes it quite versatile too. I use it for both my Inferno 7.5 and my NTC3 Plus.

I have set it up for starting the buggy because it is easier to hold the NTC3 at a 90 degree angle to fit it on the rubber wheel because it weighs less.

I have started my friends .46 engine without any problems.
(Have .15 in NTC3 and .26 in buggy)

Now just one question..

How long will the charge on the 12V battery last!! Offcause I could find out in time, but just thought that anyone inhere knew how often they charged up their battery og knew how much current the 12V motor uses.

Regards.
 
Glad you like the box, it rocks. I get a good day out of mine and it starts three buggies every time. I like to charge it the day before I us it. Hope this helps you out.
 
Yup. Gives me an idea of what to expect.

How many times do you start these three buggies during a long race day ??

And when you recharge the battery do you use a charger that shows how many mAh was put on ?. I use the Triton charger myself and like to keep track on how many mAh's it sharges the batteries with....

I would say all together about 40 to 50 starts depending on if we are tuning or not, on a bad day could be more. I just use a standard charger it does the job.
 
40-50 starts!!!

That sounds great.

I guess I'll be having plenty of fun then..

Thank you so much for the info.

Regards from Denmark
