copperglobe, jmmustang, & others, Just a thought ... I wonder if IDX has a way of reprogramming the X10 acceptors so the secure tokens from both a large bulk from Ebay & your large bulk will work. Of course the cost would have to be more in line & practical. Depending on your theft-vandalism...

With the Ebay approach .... could there be a re-code issue to match copperglobe's existing IDX coded tokens?

MDrost1 & others, A semi retired master mechanic with vast experience who worked for me back in the 80's came up with pressurizing (as needed) the Specialty Equipment's 30 gallon drums with a few psi .... just during the fill up ... to transfer to our more compact near empty 5 gallon pails...

I wonder if it is something like they use in Houston on the toll ways for any vehicle who happens to get on a toll hwy for less than 3 minutes? I remember getting a $15+ bill via postal mail after getting back from my trip there a few years ago.

Ric, Based on experience with 16 foot plus extra bright LED 6000 color index range STRIPs .... I would not rule out 2Biz's suspended dangling looping leds approach. As far as heat sink inside a sign box ... in a pinch ... a thermostatically controlled fan would not be difficult ... but only if...

Almaprowash, I wonder if someone still makes a housing that has a small windshield wiper on the front outer lens of the housing. When back in 1982 we put cameras with a waterproof housings .... at that time very expensive cameras & housings ... in each of our 3 totalled enclosed (with...

pgrzes, Does the $250 more for Sam Tang's have better specs??? I notice on the highest end above$1750 system in the specs it seems to say "Real-time recording up to 8MP on all channels" I wonder how that translates into "worst case scenario" # of dropped frames for when we go to retrieve the...

Well, we were fussy on any connections so the air leaking was not coming from threads. Unexplained air was heard leaking in the pressure switch area with the subsequent more cycling needed to keep tank full. Each time we put a new tank check valve on it took care of the problem for at least...

Almaprowash, Can you tell if the company you bought it from gave the appearance that it was an actual OEM part or from Ingersoll Rand or exceeds specs? Mep, We took the snap ring off & the whole valve is only 5 parts: the body, the snap ring, the teflon looking poppet, the spring & brass disc...

For some unknown reason our 23405L Ingersoll Rand 2 stage Air Compressor's Check Valve - p/n 85582229 Valve have not been lasting. As in less than a year going out. I am suspicious that the replacements are not as good as the OEM part. Anybody else having a similar problem. The retailer...

cfcw, Is the 25% limited to just the Crees? If it is on everything ... what is the CyberMonday code & minimum purchase amt to qualify needed? Thanks in advance

For what it is worth, I just saw a clip on this evening's TV show AFV. It shows car in an conveyor style car wash with brushes & was narrated with the driver opening his driver side door in a really fast way supposedly because he wanted to retrieve a pamphlet off his windshield that he had not...

Sean, I talked my worker this morning & he reminded me that there is a repair kit that Dema has for the 203B if an o'ring & teflon ball is needed. Just a cleaning & unplugging is mostly we have ever had to do. Put the dissembled valve in daylight to see a potential partial plug. On an...

Sean, To answer & with some elaboration based on experience: Dema 203B 3/8 inch adjustable. I notice in the Dema package it includes the clear tubing etc. I believe Trent &/or others at Nat'l Pride still use their 4 Paws somewhat unconventional injector setup & if you do a good job of...

Lou, There is a previous post where myself & 2Biz engaged in a back n forth about how we revised &/or replaced the faceplate on a similar Vac. My vacs are all Futura that were made by actually manufactured by Doyle Vacuum. Your pic looks the same as mine before upgrading to Dixmor countdown &...

Ditto .. that one nobody was hurt or even in this case killed!!! Earl & others, We have precast hollow core on top of our car wash ... there is no sign of any kind of deterioration. No offense .... but I am thinking some precast ceiling roofs are better than others. mike walsh www.kingkoin.com

2Biz & others, What you describe is exactly the more user-friendliness IMHO ... that I am referring to. Electronics keep evolving! With the post I was thinking that some forum members could provide input to some car wash electronic hardware manufacturing engineers including decision-makers...

Earl, Since you mentioned that corrosion is an issue & there appears to be not a huge amount of material needed ... I would not rule out a really good stainless steel custom fabricator ... after making a few well designed sketches. mike

I am sure that some manufacturers have at least considered programming abilities besides just buttons, arrows, & keypad. That is one reason why some operators might take the time to weigh in on their preference based on whatever actual experience they have. As far as existing, we have some...

Scrub Free & Mel's posts brings to mind another issue: To what extent are we responsible legally before we either start using the left item extensively, sell, throw or give away something of obvious value? We apply our 30 day laundromat standard as a minimum but storage can be problematic...
