What is the best Diode cutout
What is the best diode cutout for the Model A?
I have been trying to contact Tom Wesenberg but to no avail. He and I had talked about this question back in June but now I am having trouble contacting him.

Re: What is the best Diode cutout
I got mine from Brattons. $ 52.95. I've had it for about 10 years now. Or they sell a kit to make your own for $ 6.95.

Re: What is the best Diode cutout
Look at Fun Projects voltage regulator as a better alternative to a diode cutout.

Re: What is the best Diode cutout
Sorry Just went to the Fun Projects site. Should have paid closer attention to the link I copied. They are "always" out of stock. Call their number. Daughter or Wife will answer. Put you order in and they will call you when they're back in stock and ship directly to you.

Re: What is the best Diode cutout
If the cutout is a diode and you have a system that has a ground incompatible with the diode, reverse the diode connections or change the ground polarity. Diodes only conduct current in one direction on the basis of polarity.
