11 years ago I bought a Triton 3.5 hp router to hang in my router table.
It has worked flawlessly up until a couple of days ago.

It has variable speed electronic feed back to regulate the speed.
Anyway the router was operating at a lower speed setting and suddenly it
went to full speed. Turning the speed control dial had no immediate
effect but eventually the router went back to the set speed with no
other issues. It has done this every time since that day. I use this
router to spin raised panel bits but do not want the router to go full
speed speed when do int that.

Anyway locating a replacement part is looking difficult.

In the event I have to replace this router, what are y'all using to spin
big bits in a router table.

The Triton has VS, fine and coarse depth control, above the table bit
changes, and plenty of power to spin those large bits. I would like to
have the same features.

Suggestions? I have strongly considered the big Milwaukee.

I use a PC7518 motor in a lift.

That has crossed my mind also, quite a few times 11 years ago before I
went with the Triton. It is butt ugly but is designed to go from the
work bench to the router table with out changing bases. It pretty much
covered all the bases.

I can go Triton again and be done or a new big router and lift for about
twice the price.

Thank you.
