If you can wait a couple weeks for something good and use a receiver pack until then, it might be worth the wait.

I've seen a "DBEC" or Digital Battery Eliminator Circuit but can't remember where I saw it. It was very small. Like half the size of the UBEC.

Here perhaps, Hank?

All the good BEC systems are 'digital' the Ubec is using the very same principle. It's a switching voltage regulator. This one just has got a small footprint.

I nabbed one of these the other day:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=200071683316
Got a message from them just after midnight indicating it had been shipped, and included the tracking number. They ship via china post, air parcel. So far, so good. We'll see how well it works. For the price, it was worth a gamble.

I got one of these as well. As soon as I got it, I removed the heatshrink and looked up the regulator IC part number. It is rated for 3A load and is a very basic circuit. The BEC is actually using the circuit layout used in the "Applications" section of the data sheet, so I have confidence in the design.

Serum...as usual...U THE MAN! Thanks, it was driving me nuts. Funny it was a Quark item. Only flaw I see in it is that it's fullt exposed, otherwise it seems nice.
Sleebus.....I hope it works out for you. Some of those Chineese Specials are a great deal and some do not even make a good paperweight.
