Carson Universal Starter box

Carson have released this starter box, which thanks to its design can achieve 3 different starter wheel orientations thus enabling it to be used with both gas circuit cars and buggies. The integrated 12V starter-motor provides effortless starting of 2.5 – 4.10 ccm glow engines, making the starting of 1:10 and 1:8 on-road as well as off-road vehicles much easier. Power is supplied from inside the metal box by either lead-batteries with 12 V / 7 Ah or two racing packs with 7.2 V (sold separately) or alternatively it can be powered externally by a car battery using the supplied power cable.
