I have a pax3 that is starting to show it's age. The battery is not holding it's charge that well and I'm sure the tech has improved a lot over the years. I was looking at a crafty or mighty+ but wanted to see if there was something else comparable for a little cheaper. I would like to keep it under 300, but can spend some more if it's worth it.

Yeah DIY seems to be the way to go when it comes to IH. I have a tad of soldering experience but it seems like there are a lot of kits that are solderless.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do :) That board I linked is also solderless from what I understand, the terminal connector with two clamps is for input dc power, the terminal connector with three clamps is for the coil. The two ends of the coil go on the two far ends leaving the middle one empty. In theory should just be able to screw in the coil in one side and pump 12v 10a to the other (hopefully!)
