Rcats Li-Ion glow driver system

Rcats Li-Ion glow driver system
A quick ugly clip of my new glow driver system by Rcats. Very nice unit. Soft start to heat the plug slowly at first. I also added the adjustable voltage mod when I purchased to be able to adjust from 1 to 3 volts. RCA connectors (purchased separately) allow you to quickly change between a headlock driver (supplied), or a Cox glow clip, or long style Dubro clamshell lock. Rechargable 5200mah LI-Ion battery. The unit it set at 1.8 volts in the clips. led bar graph at the top of the unit shows amps being applied to the glow head or plug. I also added the red protective glove(optional). No glow plug or heads were damaged in the making of this movie. Ignore the table mess and music.

I will have to look into getting one of those;looki so much simpler than my rechargable energizer "D" cells I have been using
Well, ok, but it looks to work way better
p.s. next time a little louder music, I couldbarely hear it on my laptop, but I liked what of it I could hear

Re: Rcats Li-Ion glow driver system
Thanks Jaspur. It's a really nice system.
The only thing I had to buy outside of the system itself was a couple packages of DIY shielded RCA connectors at Radio shack, to be able to convert all my clips and plugs to there RCA connector that is on the driver box. Once you convert over, you can start whatever type of glow plug setup you have just by quickly unplugging and changing clip or driver end.

Sorry about the music, as it was eminating from my labtop,,lol. Next time I will put some Wagner-Flight of the Valkyries on there,,
