Richard,

    What you write about seems fairly common with those who use the cheaper 
ultrasonic units. You need to purchase a unit designed for business, lab, 
industry. Look for the major brands and not cheap pacific rim manufactured 
units. A tip-off that a unit is not designed for sustained use is the timer 
device on that unit. If your unit does not have a timer capable of 30 minute or 
longer sessions, then it will probably over-heat, if over-used.

  Subject: CS>Homemade Liposomal Vitamin C


  Hi there, I've been having trouble with ultrasonic cleaners burning out when 
making liposomal vitamin C. I have been using various models all made by James 
products, not the Harbor Freight type. I have since found the Harbor Freight 
models on Amazon.co.uk and was going to try them to see if they are better. Has 
anybody else had this problem. I alway filled to the right level and never ran 
the machine more than 3 x 3 minute cycles without a long break. The last 
machine I tried was a £150 James 2200m Sonic professional cleaner and that 
broke the same day it arrived!. Is it just the James products, or is it the 
lecithin solution that's causing the problem? Any ideas?

  Regards
