The KUPO CHP-2E Mini Motor Pickle is a low-voltage-control handheld for close-range chain motor operation during build and load-in. It uses a thumb rocker for up/off/down control, dead-man release-to-stop behavior, rear status LEDs, and an integrated carabiner / belt clip so the controller stays on the rigger's belt or harness.
Why It Matters
CHP-2E is the alternate CEE catalog variant, offered alongside CHP-2 for crews or regions that stock this sister configuration. It keeps the same rocker, LEDs, and dead-man behavior while matching CEE yellow-shell LV °C cabling.
Key Features
CEE 16-4h 3P+E, 16 A, 4-pin, yellow shell connector matches the intended LV °C motor control standard.
Rocker switch gives thumb-operated up/off/down control while chain is fed by hand.
Release-to-stop dead-man behavior stops motion as soon as the operator lets go.
Red, green, and yellow LEDs show power connected, up direction, and down direction status.
Integrated carabiner / belt clip keeps the pickle within reach during rigging work.
Applications
Use during chain motor setup, chain feeding, load-in, trim checks, and close-range LV °C motor operation where a full controller is too far away or too slow for small adjustments.
Compatibility
Compatible with low-voltage-control chain motors using CEE 16 A 4-pin yellow-shell control connectors. The source notes CHP-2 and CHP-2E share the same connector specification.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why use a mini motor pickle instead of the main controller
It gives the crew member at the motor a close-range control point for feeding chain and making small setup movements during load-in.
Does the motor keep running if I release the switch
No. The rocker uses release-to-stop dead-man behavior, so motion stops when the operator lets go.
Which connector version should I choose
Choose CHP-2E when KUPO or your stock list specifies the alternate CEE variant. The source notes CHP-2 and CHP-2E share the same connector spec.
