Bolton upgrade?

Anyone install the Bolton upgrade kit on their RadRunners?  More I see these the more I want one now, but can't believe ship date isn't until March :(

I installed one on my RadMini. Two of them, actually: a 25 amp version and the 35 amp version. If you shop someplace other than Bolton and they carry both versions, go for the 35 amp version. It's dual stage and has a lot more power. I love the cruise control, and the only downsides are the upgrade controller is not as efficient as the stock one, and the motor has a louder "growl" because the waveform is trapezoidal instead of a more expensive simulated sine wave of of the Rad controller.
