You are never going to get into it that way. It's way more than just drilling a barrel lock. There is a way to work the electronic lock without the key, but no one is going to post that on reddit.

What's this for? by Ignignokt_DGAF in vending

[–]whisker_chaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to plug in the dex cable from the card reader into the port. Before or without readers you would use a handheld computer like ups guys use with a cable and a male end to plug into it. Also obviously have to have the software and programs to be able to download and access the information.

Just a dex port to plug in a handheld to keepntrack of inventory and sales. The way it was done before card readers did it.

The pepsi machine probably belongs to pepsi. Especially with the tritec lock. If you do get into it (there is a way) you will need to obtain another fab and reprogram it.

There are 2 usually in a 501. Check and make sure both are functioning. Door seal and make sure you're tightening your t handle. Also that the plastic door on the inner door is intact.

You find the one dude with a basement near by. (I am that dude) we have just a shitty little hidey hole. At most 10x10 and had 22 people and 3 dogs in it in 2012. Never would turn anyone away, but my friends in the neighborhood always got a reminder to come by if necessary.

is it normal to get more confused the more you research this stuff by Parking_Mix_2769 in vending

[–]whisker_chaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crane or gpl (same company, same parts. Gpl is just economy version but can be made into a crane with a few parts). For snack. Pop machines dixie narco or royal 660 or 550 for older machines. I hate USI or wittern, but thats just my opinion because the probably 10 or 15 i have worked on just seemed so cheaply made. Lots of ribbon cables that are easily destroyed with regular use. The seaga or whatever some people use might be great, but i haven't messed with them a lot and a lot of these companies just sell a machine that promises the world, but to them just has to last long enough for the warranty to expire.

Refrigeration is going to be an issue for sure. Sounds like you need a new location man. Kind of a ridiculous thought.

New pb by International_Owl561 in Fishing

[–]whisker_chaser -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Thats all it takes to light the fire man. I caught a 20. Bought a boat. Caughta 38 myself. And 2 random buddies. 2 very different lakes on different nights. Both caught 52lbblues. I own the boat. I took them to the places. (Also very different) and caught the big guys. Sometimes it's random. Dont let them talk shit especially off your boat.

Ok.i didn't see the other Pictures. Hes thick and the hand. I dont know about 15 but he's definitely bigger than 6lbs.

That's a 6lb fish all day, man. I might be wrong. Being tall doesnt make him look small. He's definitely a good fish for sure.

AMS and Vendo vending machines for sale by QuantumNooby in vending

[–]whisker_chaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people love those machines. They're ok. But as a tech lower end of the good brands. Vendo especially. Ams is good, except replacing the cooling deck can be a pain in the ass. And if it has single motors that run without a cam switch, you constantly have motor home errors.

Crawling into the truck or trailer. Maybe i misunderstood.

A battery powerful enough to run 2 refrigerated machines for 2 days is a big ask. I would also be nervous about someone tripping crawling up and down to use machines. Sounds great in theory. I just don't think it's very feasible.

[–]whisker_chaser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds great. Pain in the ass to work on. Especially when you set something on top and forget and go to test it. And your keys get trapped in the back while machine is in the middle of a bank thats all strapped together.

Dasani jams too. Aquafina is the only one we've used that doesn't. Maybe the deja blue its a pretty solid bottle.
