I saw a video of this once in youtube I think. A guy bought a cordless drill and attached ot the the auger handle. This let him control the auger left/right from a switch!

Looks good. Operates a bit fast though. Try using a 12, 9 or 6 volt battery to slow it down if necessary.

Also, I noticed that I do have an AC alternator with one lead coming off it, I think for a optional light, that I don't have. I would love to use this AC alternator to power the DV motor. I'm currently using the drill battery which is 18v.

That is awesome. I like that it moves fast, provided you only blow left or right. No screwing around, just *bam* and it points where you need it.

I might have to do something with mine just to play with snow blower. It's been a snow drought out west these last two winters. My engine is still fogged from last winter. You guys out east have been getting all the action.
