cwguy, It really should not be an "all or nothing winner take all" It should be what is the better fit for the location & the best way in my opinion for keeping cash as a viable option by supporting the proper updating of our coin & currency to adjust properly for the reality of inflation &...

That has not been our experience in terms of significant time involved. There are some of us on the forum including the Kevin Reilly family & our operation that use an affordable & reliable coin sorter counter & a bill counter. In our case, the coin counter counts are automatically put in a...

Hmmm... during times when the weather is such that both of us identical twins are lined up with customers driving away ... according to the viciously for "100% cashless" crowd ... at least 40% of the customers taken care of by the other twin (not my facility) ... will be routing whatever the...

credit - debit card upgrade timetable --- initial information cwguy-(the eric) & others, To firm up what Randy implied: I did get in writing from the ATM distributor that it will be mandatory to replace the card swipes with Europay MasterCard Visa (EMV). Specifically, the liability from...

Apparently, our air regulators that came with our equipment from now defunct Speciality Equipment are not the type that will relief off quick enough to prevent an occasional burst low pressure plastic tube ... potentially anywhere between the ER & the bay manifold.

If one air regulator like you describe for the tire motor does like you say ... then that approach makes sense. If it requires 2 air regulators ... then hopefully there is a lower cost pop off valve available with an outlet that can be teed in each low pressure plastic tubing. Wherever the...

So 10hz is as low as it can go?

wASHNFUN, ATM is the best fit for many of us. This is coming from a person who was very skeptical but finally went ahead about 33 months ago. The approach we took was to buy our own which meant that it has paid for itself a couple times over. No bull ... just the facts. We have bill...

That probably helps keeps straw & lighter manure etc. floating & out of the sewer pipe also. mike king koin

AlmaPro, We try to tweak the air mixture with our Flojet setup so it foams on the tire ... with the idea that it will stay put longer for more dwell time. So in other words, just enough pressure to get it to reach the tire even if the customer holds the wand 18" away or thereabouts. How is...

Stuart, I just learned something new by your description that makes perfect sense to me ... in terms of making downtime less likely by creating a bit of redundancy with easier to replace items than hunting the leak somewhere in the trough or the ER. Now if we make time to just go through the...

Just to provide a bit of balance to this discussion ... it might be wise for some of us to also budget for the cost of updating to the chip style credit card swipers because there most certainly appears to be movement in that direction. There are some of us who are living proof that an ATM is...

Bigleo, I am checking into VOIP & hopefully eventually transitioning to it ... considering our 4 line 4 phone ancient Executone PBX that we picked up from a selling out grocery store for $25 has somewhat seen its last days maintenance wise. Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like Earl...

Kevin & others, This in my opinion has been one of the "better heads up" posts on this forum ever ... especially for any owner who has or may get more card swipes "than most" smaller transaction operators. Time will tell ... but we should consider the following growing positions made by...

Slash007, There is welded stainless & higher pressure stainless tees ... so the hi press stainless fitting is something to consider on the tee. It is possible that a thinner lower rated cheap brass fitting close by (super easy to change) maybe helpful as sort of a break open relief outlet when...

Mike, Our hearts go out to you & your caring family. At times like this, we find out the difference between just the warm fuzzy shallow feeling of "luv" & the quiet caring determination of true grit & the more durable kind of "love". We have a local priest who grew up on a local farm & was a...

2Biz, I have found that mounting some of the thinner screwless Phoenix relays on a 35mm din rail to be worthwhile ... when space is a consideration. We have also seen where ferrules can make the terminals more fail safe against a loose connection. Mike Walsh...

JeffM, I can relate to the challenges of overhead door repair ... in really tough weather conditions. Just thank your lucky stars:) that it was not one of those "Monster Ford F-150s" because then it would have been even more of a concern. We keep spare panels on hand ... just in case...

JeffM ... you make some valid points ... from past experience... if the cold snap lasts for a very extended period of time & there are too many customers driving away seeing a place closed ... it can effect the immediate business when the temperatures do get just bearable enough for various...

Earl, I am not sure ... but it could be some localities possibly have some restrictions on flexible gas lines. Also, I had an electrician who told me about how fussy the plant work that he did a lot of was ... when it came to sealed explosion proof this & that. From experience, I know that...
