ultra sonic cleaner

Are these still available at that price if there is stock left in stores ? I could do with one of these.

They had a few at my 'local' lidl in Catterick yesterday, might be worth phoning your local Lidl rednutt to see if they have any left?

[rednutt]

Thanks sleedale. There's 2 lidl a few miles away and was thinking of popping in while I'm up there tomorrow but I've just heard about the weather bomb. Apparently we're getting hit with a storm tonight and tomorrow!!! Might stay at home incase I get blown away.

Stay safe rednutt and all our members in Scotland. It's pretty windy down here but nothing like as bad as they are predicting further north. Why don't you phone the Lidl stores, see if they have any and ask them to save you one for a day or two? Worth an ask? They do work well.

I always thought these were massive. I was thinking baby bottle steraliser size. Got mine from maplin eBay and its a cute compact size. Works well too. About £24 i think at the time

[rednutt]

I don't know if it's to get any worse but I think the media may have blown this out of proportion. It's a bit windy and raining. Nothing massive. I've seen and heard worse from previous storms. I'm going shopping lol

[rednutt]

Got one , thanks guys .

A couple of wee question before I use this. Do you dry burn heads before putting them in the cleaner? Do you need to dissemble the heads ie taking post out? Can I clean heads with cotton still in place if it's just a flavour change?
A really silly question but it's because I find it difficult to through stuff out but my iclear 16 heads that have been used can you dry burn them with the wicks in. Is there any point. I have boxes of new ones and no need for them but loads of used ones lying around. Anyone ever found a use for old ones?
Infact someone tell me it's ok to bin them lol

if your iclear heads are knackered you can either bin them or chuck them in cleaner and see if you revive them (no harm in trying) I just chucked my kanger heads in even with wick still attached btw I didnt dry burn them before putting in cleaner. Dont worry bout taking them appart unless u want to lol

Thanks flavourtank. So even with a gunked up crusty blackened custardy coil it'll still clean it with the dry burn?

[rednutt]

Without the dry burn I meant to say

you can try, basically get the head as it is chuck it in cleaner I added 2 drops of washing liquid in hot water stick it on for 2 cycles of 480 seconds then change water without adding washing liquid do another cycle, take it out Towel dry it then stick in atty dry burn it and see how it goes

Quick question for ultrasonic experts........do you bung loads of bits in at once or limit things so nothing touches? I've just stripped down 5 tanks of different varieties and chucked all the bits in together. I've taken the wicks and coils out of all but 1, not sure if I can redo the coil on the Kanger MOW tanks, only got it recently and no idea if it's recoilable or not? So chucked the whole coil in the cleaner.
Anyhooooo, fewer bits or all in together?

Best not too overload, even the plastic cage weakens the ultrasonic waves
