## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great kit for a great price
*by C***P on June 19, 2015*

great kit, i was looking for just the glow ignitor and the local store wanted $30 for a alkaline battery charger, but i wanted something that could last longer as i felt like i was going through alkaline like nothing with that charger, this not only had a rechargable ignitor but it came with the charger and all the other tools which is great!the refill bottle is nice plastic that doesn't seem like it will be effected by the nitro, the nozzle is a nice length to reach in to the nitro bottle and suck nitro out with, and the nipple has a satisfying waterproof seal so far.the cross tool seems to have a little piece in it that holds the glow plug when you unscrew it, that's an awesome addition! my only problem with that tool is that it has screw holes that look like you can screw some extra glow plugs into it but my glow plugs don't fit, i think its possible that there is some burr from being tapped that never got deburred and its in the way of the threads, oh welli haven't used the glow ignitor yet but it already seems to get the glow plugs alot brighter than the alkaline one i had before.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice little kit.
*by R***R on November 12, 2023*

This is a nice all-in-one little kid came with everything I needed. You did to get an old RC car that I bought off a marketplace running again and tuned. The bottle is very squishy which I really like. It only holds about one tank of fuel which is kind of not so great for me. Because the truck that I have has 2 tanks. But overall, it's a great kit definitely a purchase. Head wave are them paying $35 just for the glow starter itself at my local hobby store.
