the Best Ultrasonic for $150 or under (2 Viewers)

[BigSlick4523]

Yup. It's the sweet spot with a salad spinner that fits and keeps the chips fully submerged 95% of the time.

do you think a 10l would be better ?

do you think a 10l would be better ?

Not necessarily. 2 barrels at a time is reasonably efficient and not unwieldy.

 

[BigSlick4523]

Man I cant make up where to buy it from I guess amazon cause its prob the easiest to return if I get a DOA ultrasonic

I just read so many bad reviews I just bet anymoney I get a messed up one lol my luck

 

[BigSlick4523]

so I finally pulled the trigger on this one

https://www.vevor.com/products/vevo...l-stainless-steel?_pos=2&_sid=13b6c19cc&_ss=r

its a 15L I got it for $179.99 after a $10 off coupon

I just hope I get the one thats in the picture I was reading reviews that alot of times at vevor.com they send you the wrong one

 

[BigSlick4523]

Splurge and go for the big one: https://www.amazon.com/Tek-Motion-S...rds=ultrasonic+cleaner&qid=1629176804&sr=8-15

You can do a rack at a time with one of these and don't need to make any special salad spinner or wear gloves. Just fill with 2 gallons of water + chemical and shake the basket like you are panning for gold.

are you suppose to use distilled water in the Ultrasonic when cleaning ?

 

[BigSlick4523]

15L, wow, small bathtub

id rather clean 100 at a time then 40 and I got a 15l for not much more then a 10l

95% of the time, I'd say yes. It all depends on the water quality in your area, whether there's a lot of dissolved minerals and stuff in it.

I happen to live in an area where the water quality out of the tap is probably some of the cleanest and best in the world, so I use right out of the tap.

I don't know about "best". But I've cleaned probably between 20,000-30,000 chips with the metasilicates (non-phosphate TSP, Red Devil brand from Amazon, others use Lundmark), so I'd say it's very reliable. I've probably used 3/4 of my initial 4 lb. bag.

Red Devil over TSP

1lb bag of red devil is like $2 then a 4lb thing of TSP that sucks lol

 

[MrWitti]

Is this ok? https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B007Q2M17K/

Would not waste money on any of these. I recommend any brand that is also used in professional environments and has lower budget lines. For example I use a EMAG Emmi-20H EMAG
I saw its bigger sister at an opticians business. Works very well for me, but different to others I clean barrel by barrel. Magic Eraser one while the next barrel is in the ultrasonic. The cheap ones I killed already 2, they usually don’t last long

You were not kidding got this 15l the other day havent used it yet this thing is a beast lol

 

[12thMan]

I'm finally going to take the plunge and get an ultrasonic, I'm done hand cleaning and have a bunch I want to do. I'll read through the various threads to get educated on how to do it, but I have a quick question just to get me started: What is the size I need to get to do a good amount of chips without having to use the salad spinner? Or is the salad spinner always used?

I'm hoping there's one where I can just dump them in and let it go to work, I don't even want to spin the salad thing i am so over cleaning chips. Lol

 

[allforcharity]

We recommend the salad spinner (or some other way to stir/agitate the chips) because if you just dump the chips in the detergent, they will stick to each other and not allow all surfaces to be exposed enough for the scrubbing action, or at least markedly decrease its efficiency. You don't have to constantly spin or stir it. I give it a quarter-to-half spin every 10 seconds or so.

 

[BigSlick4523]

I got the huge 15l so I will just be shaking the cage in the ultrasonic I can see myself buying a 6l to use the salad spinner lol no clue yet it shouldnt be rocket science to use this ultrasonic but I think im just making it harder than it should be

Thanks bud, appreciate it. I'll go read up now and assemble my Amazon list.

non-phosphate TSP you think this works just as good as the lundmark tsp cleaning paulsons ? horseshoe clevelands ?

I figure I will get this instead of real TSP

Have you not looked to your gematria calculator yet? "Ultrasonic" = 132, and 1+3+2 = 6. 132-6 = 126!!! 12 & 6 represent up and down on a clock. So, clearly, the answer is to agitate the chips up and down for 126 seconds in the ultrasonic.
