    Bonus time LED7

    Why would you want to give bonus time for $5 and $10 bills but not 5x or 10x $1 or coins? That makes no sense.

    Hand Held Dryers

    I have both the 3 phase and the single phase with 3 small motors. If you have the option of 3 phase they are MUCH better. You never have to do anything. For the single phase version I have probably replaced 5-10 of the motors over the last few years and have to replace the motor brushes every so...

    Kleenrite rewards

    If you use points for free shipping and some items are backordered, they will ship for free when back in stock. At least that’s been my experience the last few times.

    Kleenrite rewards

    The 40lb box free shipping is the best use. There are no measurements for the “box”, it’s just based on the weight that the website shows for the items in your cart. I often order big bulky things and they ship in several boxes but as long as the total weight is less than 40lbs it’s free...

    Turbulence in Main Tank causing Hydrominder problems

    Use a different type of valve. Hydrominder is meant for mixing chemicals, not filling a rinse tank.

    New vacs

    Post a picture, I am sure someone here can help identify the model and how to replace the bags. They are probably attached on top where the motors are. You can certainly replace the bags. No need to spend thousands on new vacuums.

    Theft / vandalism in desperate times

    Cameras are well worth the $. Mine have paid for themselves many times over. Most recent was a huge truck that damaged my bay. Got licence plate and DOT number off cameras and contacted company and their insurance had to pay for the repairs which would have cost me a lot more than the cameras...

    vac nozzles

    The problem with those is if you have to take the swivel part out it’s a bear.. have to heat up the grey part to make it expand a bit and then pry out the clear plastic piece

    Went to count up mode in my bays

    I just checked my CryptoPay sales at one location and today alone I see sales of $14, $16, $17, and highest was $22.94. And this is with count DOWN so they have to press the button for every dollar above the $5 minimum. If you set your max to $10 you could very well be missing out on higher sales.

    vac nozzles

    Mine always look like that. Maybe I’ve been doing it wrong? I usually push it in as far as I can and then back it out just slightly to let it swivel better, and then put a screw straight through the cuff and nozzle to hold it in place. Seems to work but does look a bit weird.

    Wash bay camera placement

    Don’t mount them too high up or you’ll be seeing the tops of heads instead of faces, and you won’t be able to see license plates. Mine are mounted in the corners of bays and I wipe them off maybe once every two months. I have them pointed toward the meter boxes/timers so I can tell if the...

    How to update MEI / MARS bill acceptor firmware?

    I have 4 validators in my change machines (110v) that I would like to upgrade to version 3.73. Yes, they accept the latest currencies but I have heard that there are some good fake bills that get past earlier versions of the firmware and I want to upgrade them to prevent that.

    How to update MEI / MARS bill acceptor firmware?

    A lot of great info - thanks!! I have heard there are some newer fake bills that are getting past the acceptor and the newer firmware can prevent it which is how this started. I believe it is only the larger bills so I am not too concerned with my bay acceptors since they don’t accept those...

    How to update MEI / MARS bill acceptor firmware?

    Thanks. They do accept bills, but when newer versions of bills come out, I have had to pay to upgrade them and would like to be able to do it myself. We have several locations so I am expecting it to cost a bit upfront but recoup the cost over time.

    How to update MEI / MARS bill acceptor firmware?

    Hello - I would like to update the firmware on my bill acceptors. What do I need to do that? Seems like I need this part here: https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-59779-mei-bpm-lite-bill-validator-programmer-115-vac.aspx I would also need some kind of adapter to plug it into a wall outlet? And...

    Hours replace vac shammee motors

    Do you change the brushes? That should be done every so often and then the motors themselves should last a long time. I have had one or two melt at the terminals but otherwise they have been fine.
