    I carry a USB on my key chain with docs and frequently used files.... if something happens somewhere I download it to that stick, then email the files to the Law Enforcement officers... most of the LEO's in my area have business cards with email addresses...

    dvr camara system

    +1 on Qsee from Costco as well. We have 5 systems, 2 geovision, 1 Lorex and 1 qsee and 1 Zmodo. I like the Qsee the best. Remote streaming is easy, and once you get that setup, you can PLAYBACK remotely as well. I will be slowly switching everything over to Qsee as our other systems get...

    Price for an oil change?

    We would be $88. But i'm also 90% sure your truck only takes 7 quarts. With 7, we would be $80

    Is a $1 Pre-Authorization Too Low or Effective Enough?

    We do a $15 pre authorization and I've only had two people call and complain that it was "holding" their pre-auth too long. Both of them were with chase bank. I told them it was the discretion of their bank to "hold" their money that long, and that my credit union never does. I recommended...

    I just contacted my Chevron supplier to see what that turbine oil costs, and he told me he'd sell it for $15 a gallon (on a five gallon pail) If that helps anyone

    Replacing MH with CFL Revisited

    Well, we just switched two of our 400w metal halides over to the CFL's you can buy from Klean Rite. Keep in mind, the MH were 5 years old, but a side by side comparison at night showed no difference to the naked eye, so we are going to switch over the rest of our fixtures later this month.

    U.S. Marines under attack

    Is anyone else reminded of Revolutionary war times when the British thought it was "civilized warfare" to have each side stand in lines shooting at each other? When the American army started hiding behind trees etc. the British called foul. This seems to happen throughout history, once a...

    Good Deals on a DVR

    I have older versions of Geovision, and I have a Zmodo as well. The Zmodo appears to run off of the same operating system as my Lorex does.

    Good Deals on a DVR

    I bought a Qsee and Lorex DVR from Costco.com about 6months ago when we built our second wash, and between the two I like the Qsee interface much better. You can PLAYBACK remotely, just through their interface on internet explorer. You can get 80% of plates through the high resolution cameras...

    Mixing foam brush soap with Rv antifreeze?

    If you plan on going through a lot of soap during this winter I would buy a large amount of methanol and either mix or dual induct. If you only stay below freezing for a week or three out of the winter like I do, I would just buy some RV antifreeze (methanol based) and mix about 4 gallons of it...

    Credit Card processing

    Elavon (costco processing) has a new small ticket option where it is 1.37% plus a $0.12 swipe fee on basic cards if your average transaction is less than $15. Its saved me a few dollars a month. http://www.elavon.com/acquiring/costco/

    damage cameras

    I had a lady call me yesterday and say my touchfree scratched and dented the side of her rig. I reviewed the tape and she drove in about 2 feet too far over to the right, bashed the crap out of a couple of my sprayers. Luckily I had a couple as backup, so I switched them out. When I called...
