I sold a guy 2 used Coleman shampoo/ vacs. I sent videos that they work, included xtra motor, claws & hoses. I told him for $1300 (total for both) i wouldn't included the LED6S timers, but he could hard wire it.

Well, he has no idea how to hard wire it now. Would it be easier for him to buy a timer & install, & if so, what timer would u suggest? He's just gonna use it @ his shop.

Or is there a simpler way? He luckily is 35 miles from Carolina Pride.

No, hardwiring to just use the vacs should be easy. Just needs a switch to turn on the motors. I would look at the wiring and just tell him what to do. You don't use any of the 24v stuff, just power needs to be applied to the motors.

What about to energize the shampooer?
His electrician said he needs a timer put in it...?

Sorry, I was thinking he only wanted the vac. I've sold some to car lots that use vac only. For shampooer, he would need to energize 24 volts. Timer might be easier.

The least expensive option would be to put a LED6S timer in it. Maybe he can find used ones on eBay. Otherwise, he'll just have to figure out how to hard wire it to switches.

WOW! What's the more expensive option? Because that option is $300+ shipping handling & tax =$350+ per vac.
