I just got one recently, so I know they are available. I would call or email them.

They are not listed on 42%'s website, nor Valley View's.

I don't recall it ever being on 42% website.

Try this:

You must have Googled it or something and found a cached page on the server because it's no longer offered on our site, please do not hit the add to cart button. Give me a call and I can explain an alternative that performs the same function and simplicity.

I think a few of us stirred up too much fuss over this thing over at FG and it got pulled. I had serious issues with mine causing the ignition to cut out every 30 seconds at 1/3-1/5th throttle setting. Quite a few others have since found the same after thinking it was completely problem free. Range checks on data loggers were also showing serious issues, so I think it's since been recalled, although last time I talked to Ken @ 42% it was still a go a couple weeks ago. Now because of all the revisions, it has 3 big ferrite rings built-in and is only 2.2oz lighter than an A123/NiCd setup anyway, so not worth the risk. I'm not gonna bash 42% at all on this, as Ken's a great guy and his support is awesome with regards to sending out new units, but it's just not my cup of tea to be a beta tester on my new gasser. Hope this helps!
