Default Regen diode?

If you take a look at this link, it says I need a regen diode. (See note #5) I might have it at home, but if I don't, I want it waiting when I get back in two weeks. I did a search of both terms in half a dozen of our site sponsors. No joy. What am I missing?

This diode comes with the XCT control. It's part of the Alltrax pkg that includes the fuse, flex mount, solenoid bracket,hardware, and diode

So I should buy another controller, solenoid and mount to get a diode?

I don't know if I have the correct diode (or any) at home. When I get home, I have cables and terminals waiting. I would like to assemble/solder them and install. Then I would like to go for a ride. I don't want to find out then that I don't have the correct diode.

If I order one that cost $10 and I get home and I allready have one, I have a spare. I don't really care to order a $700 controller to get a spare diode.

The diode itself is less than $0.50...

I merely said you got one with the controller. You said you might have it. I said it comes with the controller. You say you don't want to buy another controller? I'm not seeing any logic here.

Yea, I figured it's not worth much, but I thought that some cart dealers would sell them allready made to "bolt on" and add to the price. (It's the American way.)

Thank you

How do you know what I got with my controller? I defiantly did not get a mount, solenoid or fuse with my controller. Not sure if I got the diode with it. I might have it, but I don't mind buying another just in case I don't.

You're right. I assumed since Alltrax includes them in every box that your dealer passed it on to you as we do. There is more than one way to pay.
