Cimex Upgrade

[Shorty]

I believe that one is only limited by one's imagination.

When I look at new (& my old) equipment, I constantly think of how i can improve these items.

This is my latest addition to my Big Yella.

Living in the tropics, much of my commercial work is done after hours and with NO AIR CONDITIONING ON.!!!!

So today, I saw & purchased, this Ryobi BATTERY OPERATED fan.

Battery will last up to 16 hours, &, if I am doing spot work, I can use it plugged into a GPO, (power outlet).

There is also another model which can mist water via the fan, but this cannot be used with the electricity supply, is larger & slightly heavier & I would also need to mount a 1/2 gallon water bottle on Big Yella, so not really suitable for me.

It is held on with a simply bungee cord, (color coded to match the tank),

which makes for K.I.S.S. removal when filling the solution tank.

Just ordered two x 18amp batteries & charger as they do not come with the fan.

Why two batteries?? so one can be on charge should I need it. Lord Baden Powell taught me "Be Prepared".

Do your lips get chapped and do you need to wear biker goggles?

You don't need an extra tank for the mist just siphon it out of the cimex tank :-)

Nice! Brought to you by the man who first came up with the idea of putting larger wheels onto a Cimex! The man's a genius.

So Rick when is the pallet of Ryobi fans arriving ?

LOL. I'm still waiting for the iPad tank-mounts to come in.

I mount a Bose speaker on my Orbot. I would do the fan thing if I had room.
