^You beat me to it.
Because it comes in the terrain tekker set, knex doesn't make them any more so I'd keep my eyes on Ebay.

How does it compare to the AC motor? The one that you plug into an outlet

As long as you have a smaller gear ratio with the electric motor (i.e. small gear to red gear) then it is pretty powerful and you don't have to worry about four batteries like the gray motor. I have one and never use it.

I have two TT motors, but I prefer using the electric motors. I have 7 of 'em, so I usually have a spare one if I insert a motorized part in a coaster.

I just made my own.
It cost about the same as a TT (because it's a pain in the neck to find one for less than $30).
