Since I just started mixing my own Juices I’m thinking of getting an Ultra Sonic Cleaner but I am on a strict Budget and would like to try one out.
So with that being said does anyone know where I could get a Really Really cheap priced one that will do the job until I can invest in a better one!
I just got one from harbor freight and hacked the the thing with an arduino board to bypass the shitty timer(only had 8 minutes runtime) and temp control…
Specification:
Ultrasonic Power:60W
Frequency:40KHz
Power Supply:AC110V 60Hz (w/ US standard plug)
Tank Capacity:1.3 Liter (0.34 gallon)

Transducer Quantity:1 set
Tank Size:6"L x 5 1/2"W x 2 1/2"H

I have the one below . I’ve had it over a year now and it’s still going strong. I use it up to 240 ml batcher

I’ve got this one
Awesome @GPC2012 that’s more in my price range and I could even clean the wife’s rings lol a bonus excuse to get it
That looks just like the one I have… only it cost less. Good find!
Yeah my wifey got me one for my birthday. Needless it mixes it steeps it cleans a buttload of jewelry.
Is heat really necessary?
Nope… I use warm tap water to start. It will say warm as it operates.
I mix large batches in a 250 and 300 ml flask and decant into a 8 oz Amber bottle. It’s wider than my 8 oz bottle and the liquid level sits closer to the water line in the USC. I’ve had 12x15mls bottles in a once.
So I take it that it’s not necessary to have the lid on when running it?
One of those 2 USC listed runs at 60k and the other runs at 42K which would be better for juice?
I have stoppers for the flask, but I don’t plug them for the 2 hr USC heat steeping. Once I decant I do seal them tho.
Have you cleaned attys in this? If so, what kind of solution did you use?
I don’t see what you are referring to. The 60 I see is the power supply.
My bad… one is 40K and the other is 42K… my eyes are getting old lol
Top one is 40,000 hz and the bottom one that @Pro_Vapes has is 42,000 hz which I would think is the better of the 2
