Ingenuity Precision powder trickler

SDDasher said:
I purchased the IP system minus the thrower in August of last year to work with my V3. Everything worked fine until the motor on the Trickler froze up. Paul sent me a new motor and that’s when my issues with this system began. We spent the better part of a day going back and forth on the phone trying to figure out why. The Trickler kept throwing .05 over the designated weight. Paul finally said send the controller and all cords back to him and he would replace them. He called about a week later and said that I had forgotten to send the power cord for the controller. He said he ran the system with a new power cord and it worked perfectly every time so he was sending it back with the new cord. I received the controller and new power cord and set everything back up. Still throwing 0.05 over every time.
I ordered a V4 yesterday and don’t intend to use the IP as it has been frustrating to deal with and the developer can be a bit too sarcastic for this 76 year old man. I too was on the list from 12/2023 waiting for the “whole” system to be produced. I think there are better options with less hassle out there. JMTCW

Update on the IP Trickler, V3 and controller box. I have the system up and running after replacing the FX210i. I was also able to get everything working correctly with my old FX210i as well and can only connect allowing both the scale and controller box to warm up at least an hour before using.

Sorry, what is an FX-210i? Is that a typo? Or a different model than the FX-120i?

I’m currently a V4 + IP trickler user, and I’ve emailed Paul to inquire about purchasing the upgrade (my V3, my IP trickler, w/ new IP keypad, cup, stand, draft shield) to no avail. How did you go about contacting him to initiate your order/upgrade?

Have you tried calling him? There have been several times now where I’ve emailed Paul about something and then gotten a phone call back from him instead of an email response. I think he’s old-school that way.
