Dandy Products Omega Auto Trickler question

I have one of the tricklers mentioned in the title.


I have one question for those that have and use one. When I press the button to start trickling, it vibrates momentarily at a higher speed, then slows down for the remainder of operation till the powder scale beam shuts it off. When briefly on high speed, the powder bounces around quite a bit in the tube, but starts trickling once it has slowed and is running. Is that normal operation?

Yes, normal operation - The auto-trickler uses full power to initially latch the relay so it continues to run until the photo-beam is broken.

(I designed and made the prototypes of the auto-trickler for Dandy)

Thanks! Right from the horse's mouth. I bought mine used off of eBay, so I wanted to check that out. I wish this model was not discontinued here. I probably would have bought a second backup unit in case of accident/failure.

We've not been able to buy either the basic Omega two speed trickler or the Omega auto-trickler here in Europe for a year or two now, so have been persuaded to developed one of my own - also have an auto version in the pipeline.

I have the basic Omega and happy with it but I might be interested in your automatic version...Unless I find an automatic Omega sooner.
