Happy New Year also from mike walsh king koin of bismarck & larry welk's nota datotah. May all you find solutions to all the variety of problems during 2015!:)

Mac, cfcw & others, My thoughts are similar to what I heard on a very fascinating interview that Charlie Rose had with Tom Friedman (Minnesota native) of the New York Times & Tom Brokaw (South Dakota native & semi retired media person) of where if I remember right they were together looking for...

I would also like to thank 2Biz for what has been a very worthwhile & productive thread. Stuart's success further validates this. As a person (who with admittedly plenty of help) put together a very successful touchscreen-plc-ethernet connected dog wash & "in my opinion" better lighting...

tdlconcepty & others, I just want to add as a consumer customer myself that I have been currently going to a gas station that has credit card only. It is not because it is CC only nor will it be just because they will probably be the first to have NFC that actually will be 100% EMV compliant...

This is a long shot & may be way off ... but possibly the tape over the entrance ... then 5 days working thereafter ... is giving us a clue. Could light (including sunlight angle) possibly be effecting something electronically within the MEI acceptor in such a way that it recovers after being...

Randy makes a very good point. Sure we save money in the short term based on some of the other posts ... but I can say that there are few things more frustrating than to almost being able to identify vs not. In my mind I vividly remember the general manager part owner of the strip mall across...

Earl, Not that you possibly care :) .. there is some common ground that we have based on your last statement. People who ignore better evidence ... put all of us at more risk. Some economists or people with degrees in economics ... like some lawyers ... should sometimes be taken with a grain...

Cantbreak's suggestion for IP camera systems with Power Over Ethernet cabling makes sense for us. Does anyone know of the current best deal on a good license plate IP camera? Most IP Cameras are also wireless capable so they are something to consider even for tough to cable areas. If it was...

Sounds like something my dad &/or myself would have done. I remember staying up all night back in the early 1970s repairing one of the antiquated style pumps that we had before we transitioned into the "light years ahead" Cat Pumps. We knew the weather was extra favorable for car washing the...

Justclean, Not a chance of that type of occurrence as you describe happened at our place. Maybe at a larger operation that could happen. Keep in mind we always had another Cat 310 pump that was rebuilt that also was ready to go. The brand new pump was tucked away in its original box so it...

Remember I said that there was on the initial start up ... no water output from the 100% brand new pump stored for possibly a decade. No air lock from tank to inlet was verified. Possibly the six poppet-spring areas had tighter tolerances (being brand new) & the time caused the area to be...

Not sure ... there are people who understand the internal dynamics of the Cat 310 inner workings better than me. Anybody else have an issue of limited shelf life of the seals within a Cat 310?

We have always been a believer in having backup pumps & parts to avoid downtime. In fact, over 20 years ago we built a complete mobile pump setup with small tank etc with quick disconnect electrical & with quick disconnect tubing etc. to use as an extra for our extra volume multiple pump...

Keith, Thanks for the previous lead you gave to the company on one of your previous posts. The 10% discount was also helpful. We just installed four of their 72 watt LED Floods which are the equivalent to 250 metal halide. As Keith does ... at this time ... we also feel that the company &...

Federal Reserve Needs to be More Transparent & Looked at Objectively In My Opinion For those interested ... here is a link to the current Federal Reserve Chairman's reasoning for "no need" for properly done worthwhile audits ... since our USA Central Bank is already transparent & audited...

Thanks for asking. By not having higher denomination coins properly distributed ... it does help diminish coins in general ... & in not just my opinion. Why would coin sorter-counter companies want to invest in innovations & improvements in the USA if coins are made less viable ... partially...

We bought a brand new Cummins 2000 back in about 2002 & have never had to call the local bank equipment repair people a single time so far ... even though we process a lot of coins. In my opinion it is light years ahead of the 2 bank duty Brandts that we had before & were serviced yearly by...

Jeff, Based on your car wash description ... it sure looks like you folks give a better value to your customers than your competitors ... I would say charge both the up charge for the sales tax & the merchant fees of all your CC transactions. That way it will make both your more frugal...

I think both 2Biz & Randy makes some very valid points. We have been happily using a very effective Spirec heat exchanger to gain efficiency from heating the better specific gravity regular boiler water (combustion chamber wise) than antifreeze directly for over 20 years ... I kind of wonder if...

washnshine & others, As we are gradually increasing our outdoor lumens with our new LED 72 watt 250 Metal Halide equivalent fixtures ... we are thinking that it will be a subtle detriment towards unwanted activity on our lot. Just thinking out loud it seems ... both the police & other passerby...
