    Speed of internet required for Crypto and 16 security cameras?

    Closing on a wash Friday and trying to get set up. There is no cryptopay at the wash now, but its being added shortly. There are 16 HD security cameras on site. I am not very tech savvy. Can someone help me with how fast my internet connection needs to be (mbps)? Thanks, Troy

    Contract for RV storage

    Hey guys, I have a small 37 lot RV and Boat storage facility that came with the car wash I just purchased. Does anyone have a lease agreement that we could copy? The guy that owned it before me wrote his own and it just doesn't seem like a great idea to use his to me. Thanks so much! -troy

    Advice for equipment to renovate

    Advice for equipment to renovate

    Roz, Seems that most on here just set a maximum limit to keep the customer from getting over charged. I was going to start at $5 for 10 minutes with a $10 max. I would assume most people can wash their vehicle in 20 minutes especially when we don't have dryers. I think the small amount of...

    Advice for equipment to renovate

    Roz, Thanks so much for the advice! Are you using count up timers? How about triple foam? The guy that is doing my renovation is wanting me to use "eport" for the credit card acceptors. Everything I read is Crypto but this guy has been in this business for 25+ years and does most the...

    Advice for equipment to renovate

    I guess I don't know how to add an image...there is no name on the box. I have been told they are the original ones from 1988 when the carwash was built. Looking at them I would agree.

    Advice for equipment to renovate

    The guy told me the boards were fried. He has used them as parts to keep the other 4 running. I'm sure its only a matter of time before they are all on the outs but my plan was to upgrade to the new technology as they go.

    Advice for equipment to renovate

    Thanks for the response! 2 of the meter boxes are broken and are no longer able to be fixed due to age. I feel like I might as well update those two bays to the new meter boxes, just don't know which ones to buy. The place is actually very aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The one thing the...
