Canreef Group Order - Fishbowl Innovations

[christyf5]

Ok so a little while ago we were talking about RODI solenoids and where to get them.

http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/sho...light=fishbowl

Untamed posted a link to fishbowl innovations and I emailed them to see if we could get a group discount as there were a number of people who seemed interested.

Here is the reply I got:

Because you are in Canada I need to ship each order individually, I would be prohibitivly expensive to ship them together (and they make it difficult to ship large orders). The benefit is, your members can by at their leisure, and there is no time limit.
All I need to know is how many members I can expect to purchase from, and I will setup the discount code.

So instead of just posting this in the local forums we can offer this to anyone on canreef

So anyone interested?? I'm in for a ALC+ RODI solenoid package.

Christyf5, thanks for doing the work of getting the group discount.
He says that he will give us 15% on the level controllers. I then assume that we do not get this discount if we only buy the solenoids?
Thanks

can these solenoids be used with an aquarium controller? trigger with a float switch and then powered by the power bar?

no idea, but all he's looking for is a number right now. It took him about 2 weeks to get back to me so once we get an idea on numbers I can email him back and ask. or conversely you can just try ordering it with the coupon code he gives

Put me in for 5 for pricing. BUT, depending on price he comes up with, I may have found them cheaper.

Ebay has some 12v ones for $15.99ea and gives shipping discount.

If you're going to be adding quick fit adapters to that you get pretty close to 25 bucks anyway.

I'm a little more concerned with his description of the solenoid heating up to the point that it could damage something nearby. I don't know if that's normal for 120vac solenoids or not but it seems like a pretty good case for using a lower voltage coil. I've switched the 24v solenoids in sprinkler control units with anything from 12vdc to 24vac and they don't get that hot.

Pretty much all 120V coils get warm. Some may say they are HOT. I guess on your deffinition of hot. But ya, with the quick connects, I guess the price will go up quickly
