The Ice guy up the street raised his prices of his Twice the ICE places to $2.00 from $1.75.
New power meter!
I got a new power meter today! You’re right… who cares! It was a slow day.
Sign post
I concreted a sign post today! Now I can mount 2 signs in front of the car wash for the automatic.
Hamilton credit card download procedure
Hamilton credit card download procedure is lots of fun and you get to use the $411 handheld. But Hamilton charges you $100 everytime you change your credit card information.
Basically, a Hamilton tech dials into your entry unit and you mash buttons on your handheld. It counts to 5, dials back to Hamilton? Then they restart the credit card computer. Your name comes up on the handheld and you are done. Now you check the credit card reader.
Power box break in
So someone broke into my power box. Not really sure what they were looking for?
Chemical tank problem
Greg came by my wash today to tell me everthing wrong with my automatic. One of the problems was I forgot to put weights or pvc on the chemical hoses.
Water Wizard Preparation – Installed automatic signs
I installed my automatic signs today, I think they look really good. The large “Touch Free” sign is that plastic sign crap and the other signs are metal. Signs seem to get more and more expensive every time I purchase one. These cost around $165 from Southern Nameplate and Graphics Inc. 205-426-0181.
Portable “Air Shammee”?
Pulled up to the car wash and saw someone using a portable Air Shammee. It really did not do that good of a job though because he also had to towel off his bike.
Hamilton Handheld works!
I finally got my Hamilton handheld (TT120EKR2-1) to work with no help from Hamilton support. Hamilton support always blamed the $411 handheld unit (which I have 2 of) saying there was a problem with them. Of course Hamilton is not allowed by the manufacturers of the handheld to repair the handheld. So support just recommends to replace the handheld, never mentioning the data cord, which I already had a problem with. So I got a replacement data cord and everything worked great.
Fresh Juicy Pig Lips!
Interesting thing to advertise on your sign.
