PushGlo?

Hey mike... Do you guys ship abroad as well?

Yes they do and if I'm not mistaken they pretty much post anywhere internationally.
I live in the UK myself and they posted it to me with no problems and just to stress a point there customer service is also second to none.
 
Okey, so I have a theory, you push the button to activate pushglow right, so by pushing the butoon you simply close the internal circuit, yes I know I sound like a retart, but... If you have a 3 channel receiver, won't it be possible to use the 3rd channel as you're switch for the pushglow?? Just a thought...

Bit confused by your question but to explain my set up on my truck. I have a 3 channel receiver but I only use 2 which is for steering and throttle the 3rd channel was I suppose you can say an extra channel at the time, but when I bought my PushGlo I used the 3rd channel for the PushGlo servo plug to plug into so I could run it of the battery receiver pack, your not closing any internal circuits as without plugging the PushGlo to any power source it won't work.

Is that what you mean?!
 
SwitchGlo is our TX controlled version. It's a bit overkill for a car, but we've ran one on our SC8's 3'rd channel. PushGlo has no signal wire, only PWR & GND, so it technically can be "Y"d off of the batt direct or even another servo.

I spent a bit of my morning conjuring up a multi-PushGlo triggering kit for your twin. It’s crude, but you’ll get the idea:

That looks really neat, I must say, I wouldn't mind getting myself one of those.... You can light up both glow plugs at the same time with this one?
 
Look closely. That's what I'm demonstrating. Those are 2 PushGlo's plugged together on 1 switch. The LED also indicates glow, for a visual on your model

Revo you may want to think about covering it up with a small plastic bag of some sort to protect it from debris and make it water resistance.

Here's a pic of what I did to mine :)
