Power Base Lite
and Power Base Lite PLUS
 
Nancy's Knit Knacks is pleased to announce the introduction of its 2nd and 3rd Power Base units for motorizing its line of Heavy Duty Ball Winders

Retail Price $300.00

The Power Base Lite has been discontinued

The Power Base Lite Plus is still available

The Power Base Lite is a cost reduced version of our NKK Power Base. It eliminates some features and modifies others for the sole purpose of reducing the overall cost of motorizing our ball winder. This new product now makes it easier to justify the purchase of a motorized ball winder (or to add a motor to one of our existing ball winders).

The Power Base Lite PLUS is built on the same Lite platform but includes a high speed motor (same motor as in the high end NKK Power Base).

The main difference between the 2 power bases is in the electronics system. As a result, the original Power Base has more bells and whistles and is full featured. The Power Base Lite does not have all of these features but it very capably fulfills the primary function of motorizing the Ball Winder and at a discounted price. The construction of both units is very similar and incorporates a hardwood cabinet and guard.
 
Details on some of the Differences
Instead of a membrane switch panel, the user has a rotary speed control which some people may find easier to use. This is an analog control whereas the membrane switch is digital on the standard Power  Base. 
 
The Lite version does not include a reverse direction function or foot pedal interface.  Nor can it be directly connected to the Electronic Yarn Meter. However, this does not mean that the user cannot use it with the new Electronic Yarn Meter, it just means that the Meter cannot automatically turn off the Power Base. 
 

The
Power Base Lite Plus offers the same higher speed motor as the NKK Power Base in the standard Lite housing with the standard Lite features.
