(just so you know, this is my mill, i put a 5 gal bucket with a 3" hole in the bottom on top, and sit on top my 10 gal mash tun. But the mill was $150, and the drill $60...it's got a varible speed locking trigger)

I dont have this one but I can say after using our motorized kegco 3 roller at the brewery for about 7 months and putting thousands of pounds of grain through it at this point, that the kegco setup is a solid performer.
 
I bought a motorized 2 roller mill off of eBay and am very satisfied. I have had for about a year and works well with no issues. My purchase was timed right to be able to apply a 20% coupon code to boot.

The AC motor has a rear mounted fan for self-cooling. Motor is single speed. Rocker switch changes roller rotation direction. I mounted the set-up on a scrap board I had on hand. I cut to match the size of a 20 qt Sterlite tote I picked up at Menards.

I notice your ebay mill does not have gears on the roller shafts. This mill is still on several listings on ebay and amazon as well. Many show gears on the roller shafts but some do not. Did you just not install the gears or are there no gears? I'd prefer both rollers geared together.
