Well I finally broke down and ordered the retrofit kit and remote for my lathe. It came in today and so decided to take a break and install it. Took about 20 minutes to shut down and get it installed. It came with a new display and a new remote module. The remote can be worn on the wrist or the magnet will hold it on the lathe. Boy does it work slick. No more reaching around spinning pieces to shut it on/off or to change speeds. Anyway should have did it sooner.
