Showing items 1 - 4 of 4 results.
SRE belongs to another Canadian Co. (Navitas Technologies). Same controllers with green cover instead of red.

I can't believe that I'm aggreeing with Etharp...

The best retrofits I've ever done/repaired are the SRE controllers.
I'm pretty sure that they are still availible through Intrupa/SMH in north america.

Curtis controllers are generlly the easiest, however if there is anything tricky (like having 2 drive motors) the SRE will give better results with less hassle.
