    I'm looking to buy a 30L vevor . However there are two models . One for jewelery and one for "cleaning". Each comes with slightly different accessories and the tank controls have a different looking panel/faceplate. I did an online "chat" with vevor and after a bit of probing it seems that the tanks themselves are essentially the same. It seems a bit weird that they would have two different control layouts with the same function. Your unit appears to be the "cleaners" version but you got the jewelery version accessories (the little mesh ball thing etc). I've just noticed that the jewellery version is made from 316 stainless but the cleaners version is in 304 stainless. THe jewelery version is $10 more but if it is all 316 then it is worth it. I will be cleaning engine parts so I will have to go over the specs with a fine toothed comb as the tanks also appear to be slightly different sizes. ALL vey confusing. If you can shed any light on this it would be most appreciated. Possibly you have a contact at Vevor who can clarify things? I just want to buy the best model for my application.

    I know you said you don't typically use tap water because of impurities, but do you use deionized water? Can you actually clean electronics with deionized water and not worry about corrosion afterwards if you let it dry well? Also do you typically have to change your cleaning solution after every cleaning?

    @IlfStoyanov Před rokem +1

    Vevors work, till the transducers randomly detach from the container, because the transducer bolts are poorly attached using a questionable spot welding method. Once it detaches, you have to either braze or TIG weld a new bolt and replace the transducer. Otherwise the electronics is decent, it properly grounded, which is a big plus from safety standpoint and the form factor is quite nice. You get what you pay for with cheap (although lately not so cheap) Chinese stuff, but YMMV

    Does anyone know if there are ultrasonic units manufactured that are wide, but otherwise shallow? That is, ones that would be specifically geared towards PCBs, which could then be laid flat in the basket, rather than at an angle. Besides saving space vertically, such a cleaner would also save a considerable amount of water, as well as the extra energy needed to get said water up to temperature.

    I am looking to build a laundry sink US cleaner as per your recent video as the 30L vevor will unfortunately not be quite large enough for my engine parts. I notice that you did not fit a heater to the laundry cleaner. I presume that you don't need this for PCBs or are you going to fit one later? I will need a heated tank for engine parts and will probably fit an immersion type inside the the tank or maybe a heat exchanger with a pumped circulation which would give better agitation of the liquid. Would the liquid flow reduce the effectiveness of the ultrasonic action?

    • @BranchusCreations
      @BranchusCreations  Před rokem

      Because the laundry sink cleaner has a hot and cold faucet, I can just fill it with hot water rather than using the heater. Pumping the water would probably be fine, as long as it doesn't aerate it at all. That would reduce the cavitation efficiency.

      There is the risk of unwanted erosion if things get cleaned for too long, but an old board like the one I used is fine for a long clean. With newer, more delicate boards I would definitely try and limit the ultrasonic cleaning time to 15 minutes per side or less (30 minutes total).

      So the instruction manual on the vevor website just says running it empty will damage it. The 2/3rds thing is only if using the heating element, but doesn't specifically say it will damage it. So it may just be you need it 2/3rd full for it to accurately regulate the temperature of the liquid and you might be fine just using an external thermometer to monitor the temperature and offsetting the temperature setting accordingly when using less water.
      This is all conjecture, and the manual is in poorly written english and has numerous others errors. So, grain of salt, try at your own risk and all the typical disclaimers.
