In a pinch those small speed controllers that you plug your router into.
But they suck compared to a built in speed controller with electronic
load feed back. And the add on units are any ones guess as to what
speed the router is actually spinning at with out a load, and under a
load quite a bit slower with larger bits.
Built in speed controllers typically will maintain the speed under a
load. The cheap add-on units do not.
