Vandals have destroyed my vacuums. My plan is to switch to tokens for the vacuums. In order to do this I need to get another Bill changer. I have been a big supporter of Mars validators but I was wonder if they were necessary in a token only machine? Would anyone string for tokens? Any comments on Pyramid validators (I know nothing). I think I can get the bill changer somewhat cheaper if do it without a Mars validator..
Tokens - do I need a Mars Validator with a new changer

Stick with the Mars validator. The extra $$ will pay off in the long run.
Kirb, I have bill acceptors on the vacuums and in the self service bays. Vandals have only attacked the vacuums first for the quarters.. later for the bills.. pretty much destroyed them.. no connected alarms on them. My SS has alarms on bill acceptor and coin area so vandals so far have stayed away.. I like the convience for my customers of the bill acceptors or quarters and don't want to switch unless I'm forced to.. Vacuum destuction has forced the issue there.
Excel,
I wouldn't be able to justify having any brand of bill acceptors if they are going to broke into or vandalized. I think you have to fix the root problem. Do you have cameras? If you have problems call the police and maybe they can drive by more often to help prevent vandals. How do you alarm your bay bill acceptors?
