Thank you for replying. If you say it's good, then I'll get it. I was looking on Amazon etc, and some have different watts and other specs. I just had no idea of what to look for???

It looks good except - "Ultrasonic Frequency 36,000 Hz"
You might want to look for one at 42,000
Disclaimer -- I don't know Jack.... except what I read here. People smarter than me recommend 42k.
This is the one I have. Works well so far

This just arrived for me. I had an Amazon gift card and wanted to replace the old uc with a 3 minute timer I have had for years.
It is the same size as my old one but has a smaller capacity than the models many others have listed. It does not have a heater but I found with my old uc that a heater wasn't really necessary - the action keeps the water warm. It just did a great job cleaning my Iclear 16 coils/wicks and on my rebuilt coils. I have some juice steeping now - I don't do any large bottles so I really don't need the larger capacity.
It is so much nicer being able to select a 30 minute cycle and walk away.

Good ratings and cheaper but looks smallish. I wonder how deep it is. I guess if you are mixing up small batches it would work good. I just got the one listed above from Danny and it does what it is supposed to do. 2.1 qt capacity.
Yes, the capacity is quite a bit smaller - the BlackHillsGold uc holds 600 ml/approximately 2 1/2 cups. The volume of the 2.1 qt/2L (8+ cups/2000 milliliter). The depth to the max fill line is only 1 1/2". It works find for small bottles/small batches and is great for cleaning other small items. The bonus for a small uc is the 30 minute timer - sure beats 3 minutes. If you are working with larger bottles/batches I think the larger size uc would be preferable. Just another option depending on your needs.
Agree. The 2.1 has a thirty minute timer as well. Just got an idea... what if you forgo the bottles and mix straight in the UC? AOL, that would be some good juice.

I have always wanted to do that. But ... since we use the UC for making liposomal Vitamin C ... my wife won't let me. She doesn't want our Vitamin C "tainted" with my e-liquid. No matter how well I clean out the UC and have explained what "parts per billion" really means. No dice.
But that said ... someday I'll have a 2nd UC and I'll give it a try. I assume I'll need an efficient turkey baster type deal to suck out all the juice from the UC tank but dayum ... I bet it'll cut lots of time off UC steeping by going direct.
Take pics. It would be epic. Might order a liter of nic tonight just to be the guy who did it.

So both the black hills gold and the iSonic P4810 are good/decent units? The Black Hills Gold has been proven? Looking at getting one of these soon. At the moment the smaller one would work but I may need something bigger down the road. Hopefully . I would search more through the thread, maybe tomorrow. Been along day, I should have already been in bed, wanna go flying in the morning.
Thanks WileE for pointing me to the thread.

I just measured how much liquid it takes it hit the "min" line in the tank:
600mls.
Here's The Recipe:
150 ml of nic
210 ml PG
180 ml VG
12 ml flavor
I've got 12ml of 555 flavoring, 1/3 of a liter of 100mg nic I bought over a year ago, a half gallon of PG and a quart of VG ...

Ah I didn't see that. So in problems in doing that? How long do you let you let it run at one time?
I run it at least 5 cyles of 30 minutes then let it sit a couple of days before trying it.
Thanks . Looks like I NEED to pay attention . Been a long day. Hoping to go by HF tomorrow if they have one in stock I'll probably pick one up.
