see I was thinking of using a computer power supply cause that plugs into 110v and then you'll have to convert it to whatever voltage you need. I would like to mount the power supply and such in a box ( switch shack ) like a real drag and run a cable to the shovel! Maybe I convert a small backhoe to move cable around
