Thank you two for responding. I just ordered the Glow Bee intellitach. When searching for the 'ACE TachMaster II' I found what seems to be a good RC supplier. The name is Wholesaletrains.com . The prices are miraculous in my book and at this time I am continuing to avoid ordering from tower hobbies.

P.S. don't let the name of the site fool you , they sell allot more than trains. The best thing is they are located in N.Y. Shipping should be fast.
