Modifying a Stream 6200 into a wavebox?

[delv]

Hey, I've got a 6200 Stream that I would prefer were a Wavebox....Roger, would it be possible to sell me the parts to make my Stream into a Wavebox? TIA,

Yes, but it will take a while to get them and it also will cost about $100 more than a wavebox would, but likely be a bit more powerful.

OK, being that I have a 6200 iit would cost me only an additional $100 to get all necessary parts like the box and Wavebox controller?

I believe so, I need to find out as I don't have a price list for those parts yet, I can only guestimate the controller will be about $50 and the box will cost about the same as the box for a 3166 filter less the cartridge so about $60 for the box.

Thanks Roger....

Roger,

I have both a Wavebox and a 6200, I put the 6200 into the Wavebox, it would make it more powerful?

All you would have to do is put the 6200 transformer on it. Unfortunately you cannot run your 6200 on the smaller transformer, that only works on the wavebox because it never gets up to full power. Whether it would increase the performance of the wavebox is dependent on how long the tank is, on a big tank with a long pulse it will make a difference but if your tank isn't at least 6ft it won't make any difference and even then maybe the performance will increase 5-10%.
