That's good news and looking forward to more functionality from MQ!!!!

Ever since the new app came out it will show everything connected and running, then all of the values black out for 20 seconds and then come back. This happens like every 5 minutes and is completely...

When I switched from the old brick Dtek to my ZX1 I got the full kit. I have 2 batteries and haven't had any issues with them to date. I'm about 4 years in on my batteries.

I've stuck mine back on with a dab of Vulkem

X3 for the Tif ZX-1

I have been happy with my Tiff ZX-1. It picks up 410 without fail but you have to be closer to the leak to pick it up. Depending on the size if the leak you have to be within 1/2" to it but it works...

Well I just noticed the vacuum test beta in the app so one can only assume it will be making an appearance soon.

Burner plates not reinstalled/indexed correctly will cause this issue as well. Cleaning the plates may have fixed the issue but they didn't get put back in order. I have actually made that mistake...

That cap uses a valve core tool. That's pretty much all anyone carries around here since no one wanted to buy the keys for the green and pinkies. We've put in all 3 types.

Well over the years it's been on call Monday to Monday backup one week then on call the next. 5 week rotation down to 2 week and then bouncing from every other week to 3 week. Not long ago went to no...

I'm in OK so most of the time temp probes are stuck in return grill if it's a single return. A lot of multiple return systems here so I put the probe inside the blower compartment. The supply probe...

I have had no problems with probe placements in attics and basements and being somewhere outside of the house. I've even been at my van in the street watching the system run without issues. Sometimes...

Getting the probes in the airstream is important as well as facing them the correct way for best results. That has been my experience so far. Supply I try to get the closest supply grill but I have...

Spin flare I used on one job and not satisfactory. Spin swage is awesome and I don't have to lug the hydraulic around. Go to flare tool is the Yellow Jacket 60278. Simply works without fail every...

That wasn't an optional side discharge furnace??

A compressor tote is indispensable for sure. I think its a little off balance. I pulled the grip and cut my handle back 2" and it made the compressor more balanced when carrying it. I think most of...

Well I think the sensor connection would have better served on the bottom of the unit between the hose ports.

My inficon has been a workhorse for many years. I've contemplated the FP but figured if I waited something would come out I couldn't live without. The new Inficon might just replace the old.

My high side is giving me issues reading a negative pressure but not that far off. I contacted support. I was told possible oil on sensor. Put a few drops of denatured alcohol down inside and swish...

The older modules definitely had issues with moisture. All of what I see anymore are due to high static and power surges. Usually blown mov in the module.

Thank you Jim. I had sent an email but haven't had time during the day to call yet.

I have a 914 probe that's giving me problems. Do I take it back to where I bought it or send it in? The probe is just under a month old. I sent an email from the iconnect page a day ago and haven't...

4 sets of analogs all with 72" no loss. Great for rtu packs and slung over shoulder and across chest to let them know I mean business. Yes I do stand with the sun at my back as well. At 6'3" the...

Maybe we just need lighter batteries and then then the extra leverage will dissipate and it will be ok if the metal doesn't like magnetism.

On another note, my 914 just went melons up today....

I'd definitely find a way to keep it secure and harder to tamper with. Tamper proof screws and maybe even liquid nails if I got really annoyed and knew it had been messed with.

Most of the time my probes are on the grills. I got some magnets and bent some flat stock that I got at the depot but the probes are still touchy. I'm in the process of making some velcro straps...

If you stick the repeater to the side of a anything you are almost guaranteed it's going to fall with it's own weight without anything attached to it. I made a couple of metal brackets with magnets...

I personally am glad they're gone. The newer design is right in line with General Air and Aprilaire. The true steam was a PITA. The element/tank is replaceable and if it goes out or drops steam...

Sounds like oil or noncondensables. Oil being sucked back and pumped thru the system from the evaps.

Well I'll be putting an 8cfm on the priority list for this season for sure. Thanks MetalMan for the info from your usage.

I still have a Robinair blue for a backup. My superevac is 12yrs old or so now. Is the performance jump to 8 cfm worth making the upgrade over what I'm currently using? I know it is faster but is it...

Rardon has a video up on the tube doing a comparison of sorts. There are a few others out there as well. First hand I don't know I can only say the iConnect probes have been great so far.

With my setup I pulled a 20T carrier down in about 30 minutes. That was both circuits to just under 300 simultaneously. I know a larger pump would fair better but I'm not sure if it would justify the...

I've looked at that meter as well and would be interested in some usage from others. If Redfish is listening make a clamp meter and default to AC.

The biggest difference maker for me was adding a YJ tree to the 3/8 outlet of my pump along with 2 1/2" hoses and vcr's. I've been more than pleased with the results with just a 6 cfm pump. Granted I...

Maybe overkill but maybe an option of what to prioritize as we all might have different needs for different readings we need faster.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes priority for more of a realtime reading on pressures would be awesome. It is at this moment my issue with the system. ODA along with temp and humidity isn't an issue if it's not instantaneous but...

I've been using a YJ 6 cfm for about 12 years. I know there are better pumps out there but it stills pulls well.

It's faster without a recovery jug for sure😎

Magnet for holding in door switches and a big bag of Alpo Tbone treats.

Fluke 971 for years but I've moved to the Imperial 911 and my iConnect.

I've always used a 4' wide drop cloth and wrapped it around the c/u to check in cooler weather. Nothing is as good as warm weather but sometimes you just have to make do.

Well I gave up on the clamps a few years ago after breaking at least 1 a year. Took a loan out and bought the Flukes. Still going strong after about 5 years or so.

Well the G5 is definitely proven, I've had mine since 07 or 08ish. Haven't done a thing to it and it still runs close to as good as new. Pulling weight up a rope I can tell a difference between the...

I've been using the ZX-1 for a while now with great success. You have to be a lot closer to the leak for 410. It will not respond like it does for 22. It's a small learning curve trusting the...
