Check Around
I have an XPT and I am pretty unhappy with the XPT. The fact that I have to pay an outside
marketing company extra on a machine that I paid $25,000 for, in order to have visually pleasing menus is a bit ludicrous. At the same time the present version of the XPT with NON-TOUCH SCREEN BUTTONS sucks. It's counterintuitive when all the bank ATM'S are either both Touch Screen and Button Pushing or just touch screen.
They have a new XPT coming out, if you really like DRB I would wait to see how the new one does.
I don't have the automatic recharge module, but I do have the fast pass. The RFID reader and tags work GREAT! (THIS ALSO TOOK A TRIP FROM DRB)
I have had configuration issues that have not been resolved after 1 year, but the DRB people are coming down at the end of this month to hopefully fix some problems, not mechanical issues but problems with how receipts print. If you plan on taking credit cards I would recommend getting a change dispenser, dispensing $1.00
coins, using the cash cassette for $5.00's. This will save lots of aggravation on busy days.
At the end of the day no one in the car wash business produces a flawless product.
I would check out Micrologix out of NJ, they have been i the parking business for years, and this technology of RFID readers and automatic recharging cards is like second nature.
They have an awesome looking pay station that is reasonably priced.
Oh...yeah they also don't tie you to a
credit card company for instant
credit card clearing, I've found out that I can save about $500.00 amonth in fees if I could switch.
