Hotcoupe, FunProjects may make a diode type cutout but the unit I'm referring to is a full voltage reg (with a cutout integrated into the circuitry) contained within a stock appearing cutout case. I have read of a couple of other voltage reg possibilities over on the model A side, one within the generator which replaces the 3rd brush, and another attached to the band cover at the end of the generator, and there have been positive posts about those-perhaps the first of those is what you are referring to? For my part, the FunProjects unit worked and stood up well for many years so if I can get another I'll go that route, if not I'll explore these other options. Rotorwrench I looked at the Texas-T parts site but didn't see anything relating to a voltage reg.
