Who sells LW 4000 Virtual Treadle Eyes?

[MDrost1]

Folks,

Wondering if anyone knows if someone other than my distributor sells the VT eyes for LW4000. The stop and back up eyes? Link? P/N?

Thanks!

Check eBay. I got a set there. And Kleen-Rite has a two channel version (versus 4 channel original) that work. I do not have the part # at the moment. Search the original part # at KR and see if that gives it to you. The two channel work just fine.

If you have a part number for what you're using now, check mouser.com. I could get all the photo eyes and prox switches that the D&S 5000 and Belanger Vector used for a third of the price the distributors wanted. They can cross your part number over to a different brand.

Why not the distributor ?? Just curious. My distributor has so much to offer that I don't mind paying " a little" more. Don't wanna get robbed, but I find their knowledge that I sometimes get for free is invaluable. And their service can't be beat. Just today, Saturday on a holiday weekend, I called after hours parts number and left a message. Guy on call returned the call in ten minutes. Then he met me at the shop and I had my parts in 30 minutes. Coincidentally, it was a set of backup eyes. The transmitter fixed the problem.
I think the numbers were 240003 and 240004. I think

Forgot to say that the after hours emergency parts service was no extra charge.

Getnbusy,

I have no aversion to purchasing through my distributor. In fact, I like my distributor, Woltco, a lot. They have, as you stated, saved the day for me. I do plan on buying my parts through them. I just wanted to see what the prices looked like elsewhere. I agree with everything you said...thanks for chiming in!
