    Cool Keling VFD & Spindles any good?

    Looking for some good feedback. Been running my CNC for 6 years now. DIY beast using a Keling kit. Have no complaints other than my 3-1/4hp porter cable router is so noisy. Have been lurking here and see a lot of people are using Huanyang spindles and VFD. I noticed Keling (think they have now changed the name to Automation tech) has a sweet looking 2.2KV spindle and VFD (KL-VFD022) . Does anybody know if they are any good? The prices are great but want to be sure they work with Mach3 and proven to be somewhat reliable. How is the manual/documentation? I see the Huanyang on Amazon but really have no feedback on their units either.

    Any help or advise out there guys.

    You can get basically the exact same thing from Ebay for about 25%-30% less.

    I bought my Huanyang VFD from that seller, and two spindles from a different Ebay seller. I'm happy with them.
    I'm assuming that what Automation Technologies is selling is basically the exact same thing. The difference is that you get a little better support, and maybe a warranty from Automation Technologies.
