Choke supressor in Wolf Cub Drill
Hi all,
I found a nice old Wolf Cub Drill in the thrift shop. I made a mistake while taking the drill apart, I thought someone else did a revision and thought it was a heat shrinking tube instead of a suppression choke. I think this is exactly what Johnnie dit in this thread: HERE. I tried reopeing the thread, but I am not able to do so. I am wondering why G6Tanuki advised to buy this one. buying only this component is quite expensive (shipping costs to NL, and minimum of 5. Moreover, I don't own a company which is needed to order). This one is a 10uH 3Amp, but how do I know if this is the correct one (there are a lot of cheaper ones from 10uH but with varying Ohm, mHz and A). Hope somebody has an alternative ! |

Re: Choke supressor in Wolf Cub Drill
The precise value is not critical.
Can you let us know the approximate size of the part you're replacing (length/diameter). |

Re: Choke supressor in Wolf Cub Drill
I don't think you have to be a company to order from RS these days, at any rate you don't in the UK. Anyone's money will do!
The same part is available from RS Netherlands: https://nl.rs-online.com/web/p/leade...ctors/8807161/ which might make the total costs more palatable.

Re: Choke supressor in Wolf Cub Drill
Martin, I have a wolf cub, and it's a great drill. I have one or two, including a DeSoutter which I like. I always use them with an rcb, just in case. I find then surprisingly ergonomic in shape. They are my usual drills for small work needing a bit of torque, but I also have an older Bosch battery drill, that had a flat battery pack, and cost me nothing, which i use corded with a 12v battery.

Re: Choke supressor in Wolf Cub Drill
I am quite sure it will fit.
But to be safe, will such inductor also do the job? I can't find the other specifications such as the amperage, also not by looking up the part numbers... https://www.amazon.co.uk/10-10uH-Axi...bb_marketplace |
