Central's Compact starter?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Best starter Ive had is the Kavan, best starter battery combination Ive
had is the Kavan and 7.5ah gel cell. This starts a YS 1.60, or Webra 1.60
easy...and charge just a few times a year. The incovenience of the size of the
gel cell overcomes the smaller size of the NIMH or NIcad packs by the
reliability and capacity of the gel cell. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Ive seen the Central in use and it may be strong but looked a little
cheesy. <BR><BR><B><I>Tom Simes <simestd@netexpress.com></I></B>

anyone had a chance to compare these two? From what I can tell the<BR>main

that I understand the Kavan has a planetary gearbox and replacement<BR>brush
kits are available I'm wondering if I've made a good choice.<BR><BR>BTW, I'm
