the ez pen have the same motor - have look inside and yes asa i have buy a welker too and be very very impressed. I love this machine. I have try the new John Clark -they run very nice too but they dont go slow like the old faulhaber version. Its runs always very fast and hard. My wire was broken as i get the parcel but i notice some high quality home video cables or every 3 pole / 4 pole home cinema wire is running the machine very nice and with less weight from the wire.
