Unfortunately, this is not the case. I had 3 of the ricky stator POS stators go out on me in the last 18 months. First time i got it, it had a high rpm miss. Sent it back, worked fine for 1 weekend trip to pismo, then lighting coil went out. Would only power 1 50 watt light for next trip (when it went out) Warrantied once again, and the new one had high rpm miss. Im done with ricky stator. dont have an answer for anybody, just saying, the harwdware is not the only problem they have.
