Keene Puffer hand crank conversion?

[melo11]

I was going to purchase a Keene Puffer hand crank version but I would like to convert it to 12v electric motor. I would like to do it my self due to the unit was only 200$ and I dont want to spend another 200$ on the electric motor! Does any one have any plans or diy instructions on how i can do this? Thanks!

look up Keene Puffer on google images to get an idea . I have a older one and the motor says 24 volts on it and runs real good when
I feed it 12 volts. I think the newer ones have a 12v motor -- finding the motor will be the hard part mounting it should be easy.
I sure someone on here has done it and hopefully will step up to help.

The 24 volt motor is a wheel chair motor .It will last a lifetime. Shop around Ebay , Amazon Etc.

Also consider a 12 VDC windshield wiper motor and its control knob for a increase or decrease of speed . OR consider what Bodfish Mike posted .
