So my 1250's are comming in tomorrow and i must say that the 2nd day shipping isnt fast enough :gah:, im excited :cheers: Im thinking about mounting them up to my imperial 4 ports. i know the match right up to the titans but IMO their a horrible manifold. What do you guys use????? Picks would be appreciated :grin2:

I had mine mounted on the ORIGINAL Bruit...way to heavy. I found an Imperial 3 valve in the shop and have been using it for the past yr. Does the job until the Paradigm comes out.
this is the one i have.

Try this...
Take your YJ 41 and flip it over so the hose parks face you.
Now, install the fittings to adapt it to the DRSA.
I like this setup better than having the hose parks facing away.

Put the hose keepers on the front, you'll never go back to the backassway.
I use a CPS manifold with the adapter joints, I'd buy a paradigm in a second.

I have also been waiting for the paradigm.

I have it on the 4 port Imperial manifold. I've been really happy with it. You will have to use the adapters though.

For now Y/J 41 or J/B M2
Both have a better valve and flow better with 1/4 connections than the TitanII four valve with 3/8 vacuum port (and lighter too)
Considering the J/B M4 but need to check one out first.

i own a lot of different manifolds, fro yj, to jb, to cps, to nrp, and imperial. I have to say that the imperials are my favorite out of all, i have the 520 series 2 ports and the 651 i believe it is 4 ports which my digi's are mounted on.:grin2:

How well do the digicools hold up to (minor) moisture?

Digi-cools will survive being dropped in a bucket of water and forgotten for several hours, as long as the cap for the sensor or the sensor itself is connected.
Minor moisture doesn't mean a whole lot to them.

Gotta love that bar graph Eh?I use my digi-cools for more than a year and I don't baby them, I just treat them like any other tool. No problem. The problem I have is with the clamps wire. It's too flimsy. I like the wire of the Cooper clamps and there is a thread in this forum how to replace the wire and fix the problem.

Thanks for the info.
What's the big + with the bar graph??

It gives you sense of movement like a analog needle but way more precise.
No matter how the digital numbers roll your brain can follow with the Bar Graph.
It a little tough just looking at numbers on other digital gauges and if you are updating .5-1 sec besides missing a lot in between you are not able to read and comprehend just numbers flipping most times.
You know how to use that new fangled bar graph?:whistle:
I have mine on an Imperial 4 valve manifold, but couldn't take the face sticking so far out, with the adapters. Haven't had any problems with my Titans, it's been 3 years now.
Hey Kleinman......what's up with the colored hoses?

Hey Kleinman......what's up with the colored hoses?
the hoses came with the gauges, they are non low loss, and I like the design of the shreader depressors, they have larger openings for better flow, and I have low loss fittings to put on the end if need be. I'll be picking up a vacuum tree next.......

X2. URI has them hanging up. They are similar to price for the set of the colored ones. THe black hoses have ball valves, no low loss. I like that much better.
