Dear trutechtools

[kangaroogod]

I would like to enroll in your "clover beiser" program where I can trade in my gently used instruments when the new technology is released. I am sick and tired of owning a sman3 when the sman4 is such a seductive tease. When the sdp3 is released at some point, my sdp2 will not be as attractive as the new girl that moved into town. .

I would like to enroll in your "clover beiser" program

Clover has way more shiny new toys than I do!
I haven't actually accumulated all that many TruRewards Points with TTT.

The "clover program" requires that you have a sugar daddy(or uncle) to buy you whatever you want.

The "beiser program" involves being sworn to secrecy by at least 1 instrument manufacturer, extended communication with people that are on a 9+ hour time difference with you, and inside connections with higher ups in a company that reps multiple manufacturers products.

What will the sdp3 be like?

Speaking of Clover, Where has hvac5646 been?

[ryan1088]

I would go for that but I'm rough on stuff...I wish I could compete in the tool arms race with those two! :grin:

Since a lot of you have the SDP2, We at Fieldpiece would like to know the same thing as Chuck.

"What would the SDP3 look like and do?"

Since the SDP2 was the first Dual Psychrometer on the market (that I know of) what else could it do to make your job easier, faster and better?

No. 1 would be to make it do target SH without needing a wireless device.

Also an anemometer probe to take a cfm reading, then it could readout real time BTU output

[kangaroogod]

If a hot wire was not a part of a combination tool,, I would like to at least be able to manually enter a cfm and have it do the math for Btus automatically.

I feel like I've had this conversation before...

Interchange wands.

Have a few different wands that will record info.

Like a hot wire anemometer wand interchangeable with psychrometer wand. Just unplug the psychro wand, insert the hot wire wand, change a setting, then record airflow.

Once you've recorded both Enthalpy and CFM it will spit out an actual BTU output.

[Brent Ridley]

Or wireless wands.

Stick them in the supply and return, sync them to the SDP3 handheld, HG3, or SMAN's and let the wands broadcast info.

Wireless wands....... That is truly a good idea.

[lytning]

Picked up the SC 57 today, haven't used it yet. BUT I was disappointed that it didn't have a magnet to allow hands free.

[davidj001]

that means even more batterys

That's a great idea! Hope you get some kind of royalty when it comes my friend!

It comes with an easy to use hanger already built in!

Gentlemen, this is a very important point for everything in our industry. I stopped talking to the drones at the supply houses years ago. I only get my information from the manufacturer's reps. When they see how much of their product you are moving, they get awfully cooperative and very helpful. Get to know them on a personal level. It can only benefit you.

[lytning]

We are very fortunate to have this forum, there are many reps from many manufactures and they listen and act on suggestions. While the supply houses "can" be a great resource for some information, they are quite often misinformed and need to sell just to justify their position. I have been happy with Appion, and Fieldpiece and their prompt responses. I do like my 570, but usually grab the Sman. The selling of the software program by Testo just doesn't set right. I feel it is a money grab, and I feel that although they make a great product greed is rearing it ugly head. Probably won't be buying much else and have heard my thoughts mirrored by others. In any event I wonder if anyone else has a comment or two.
Still it is great to hear from everyone about all of their experiances.

He's very busy on installs and running even more of our family business.
I'm his apprentice.
