Electrical question

[Shawn]

This all sounds simple enough, rewire the motor for Delta and buy a VFD. I'll be ordering the complete manual and wiring diagram from Tony at Lathes.com for this lathe. I'm hoping that I can simply disconnect the lamp and coolant pump from the main electrical system and deal with them both individually, most likely a conversion to 110VAC

Any thoughts on the different VFD's available on Ebay? There are generic units for less than $200 delivered or something like the Hitachi units that will be close to $500 delivered. I don't mind spending the money for a more expensive unit if I need it or it has certain features I might require but to be hones I have never seen a single post from anyone complaining about the cheaper VFD's that are available?

Any thoughts or suggestions regarding these units would be appreciated.
