X3 Motor Controller fried - what are my options?

[Fendbass22]

After many hours of use my X3 motor controller board puffed some smoke. I'd rather not pay $200-250 for a replacement.

What are my options? What have others done?

Just found this board here.

Also through some searching found cheap treadmill boards work also. Any experience with those?

Thats pretty funny. A fellow member on this board I used to work with had a spare KBIC125 board and thats what I replaced it with. Works perfect.

Up and running!

good to hear! I've been meaning to go through and make some adjustments to mine (i left everything stock) to get the minimum speed correct for Mach3
