I think it may be a power problem... Maybe a spike in the 24 volt power. I ma using very old transformers. Should I try to swap it with a new one? Or can I put some kind of relay or stabalizer in the 24 volt line?

I have a brand new Dixmor DX 300 timer and it runs for a few hours perfectly, then it says error and I have to re set it again. any suggestions? I have 5 other new ones and they are perfect.

My champion compressor is not starting. The contactor was fried and I replaced it with a new one, it still does not start... I think it could be the pressure switch, how can I test it? Can I jump the pressure switch wires to see if it starts?...any ideas?

I am thinking of putting in a Mark V11 ChoiceWash XT at my self serve wash. I am looking for any pro's or con's about the machine. I only like to spend minimal time at my wash and am looking for a user friendly automatic that does not have to be baby-sat. I plan on converting one of my single...

I am thinking of putting an automatic in my 12 bay self serve. I have 6 tandum bays and I am planning on taking out one of the tandum bays. I have a friend that put in a Mark v touchless, however I want to put in a system that will be touchless or touch to give the customer a choice. What would...

All you need is the bulb and the transformer...in my case I used a 120 volt transformer and an 80 watt bulb....I ripped the ballast out of the Scottsdale and connected the Black, white and Ground wires....Thats it...no kit required.

do a search on induction lighting, I made a post about a month ago on the topic.

I am putting up 4 vertical banners on my light poles 30" x 120". What would you put on them....I want all for to be effective and different. Any suggestions would be great. Two of them are on the street side to attract drive by customers and two are at the back of wash for customers already on site.

We raised our start up from $2 for 2 minutes 56 seconds(22 seconds per quarter) to $3 for 3 minutes and 48 seconds (19 seconds per quarter) We did this to combat a new HST tax in Canada. We also agreed with our competiton down the street we would both go to the $3 start up. Today I drove by the...

I would say you only need 2 40w fixtures...a lot cheaper and only 80 watts of power usage. It will be way brighter than what you already have.

$120 US for the bulb and ballast combined...when I buy 20 of them. $140 for each set if bought not in bulk. Yes my old lights were 3 years old, but the new ones stay constant for years

I have taken a photo of two of my Scottsdale lights the one of the left is the original, the one on the right is the 80 watt induction bulb retrofit.....which looks better? I didn't even put the shiny reflector back in yet.

I am thinking of converting all my Scottsdale Metal Halide light lights and my parking lot lighting to induction lamps. I did one as a test with an 80 watt induction lamp and the colour temperature of the light is very good and the brightness of the light compaires to my 320 watt metal halide...

I have a vendmaster that I was happy with but I added a Shurvend Visi Combo this spring and keep it about 5 feet away from the vendmaster. I have the security structure on it and put custom lettering on it saying towels, cold drinks etc. It has a bill acceptor as well. I sell lots of drinks from...

I was serious about my comment. I just spent over $7000 on one vending machine. I have seen some great washes built with tons of debt, and these owners are always complaining and crying the blues.

With only $5000 my best advice is give up now.

Just finished a two day shoot for Tim Hortons at our wash today and they made a mascot outfit out of a giant sponge...looked great and the guy wore it like a suit....I will email you a pic if you pm me your email address.

I installed three Blasto dry units in a 9 bay wash...lots of use...I put an hour meter on one of them and it paid for itself in less than 6 months...that includes the mosmatic boom and everything required to get them wired and running. The other two get the same usage, so 6 months payback on all...

I got my Shurvend Visi Combo today....I love it...built like a tank. The packaging, instructions and even the keychain was first class. I spent the afternoon filling it and changing all the price tags. Tomorrow I will be programming the prices and testing each function. It's going to be a rainy...
