I got mine from a shop that sells on EBay, he's out of Los Angeles. Works great, charges good but the generator light does come on at idle. Although that is normal for generators.

Thanks for posting that. I've been looking for someone to do it at a reasonable price.

Which 12v regulator are you using? Are you still mounting it to the generator?
