I currently have a Kelly 4 frame reversable extractor. I was thinking about converting it to a 9 frame radial with the conversion kit listed below

Has anyone done this with their extractor and what are the pros and cons? I know you can only extract mediums and shallows. But how much better does it sling the honey out?

I have a 9 frame Maxant 1600 that I wanted to convert but it would have cost almost $400.00. I believe they said, around $350.00 plus shipping. That seemed a little too rich for me. For just a little more,you can get a pretty good radial. I think I may keep it like it is for a while.
