What would he and I possibly have in common... Who knows - Sharon wants to go to FLA one day - maybe our paths will cross.We all understand the frustration of feeling like you're being jerked around. No matter whether it's real or imagined it still feels the same way. Nevertheless, I do believe your word might just apply in this situation.

Whatever you send, I'm happy with. If that person didn't like the controllers, sell the damn things and buy new ones. And... a little secret, they're rated for 15 amps with a max capacity of 20 amps too.As my saying goes... you can teach ignorant people but not the stupid. I know where that person goes.As far as the controllers go, I can't wait to get my hands on them. That was one heck of a deal you were offering.If I need to open all cannons, I can without any problem. Plus, several others will back me 100%.EDIT: addI for one have had nothing but a pleasurable experience with Robin, I recieved 2 controllers very quickly and they are in great shape and the way most of mine look like with the SPT cords and plugs. Even on the last sale of the lights he has he was quick to let me know he didnt have what I needed available so you couldnt ask for better communications when dealing with him as long as your not wasting his time.And to set the record straight William I will stand right behind you I've got the fuses for the cannons.

shfr26 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Crap!!! Go to bed early and miss all the good stuff! I have never met Robin, but I did get a few emails from him about some lights that I wanted. He was very kind and honest as far as I could tell. The only problem I had was I was doing a tile job in Cape Coral and the men in green decided that they needed some of my profits for Lee county, hence, my purchase of lights took second place to them. Robin answered all emails very fast and gave complete details on when and where to meet with him. If I can I will buy from him in the near future. Too bad I missed the B&R thread.

Greg Young Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I don't know the specifics of who the individual was who has issue with Robin, nor do I care.The price he was selling the 16D blue version controllers for, enclosed in a weather proof box was outstanding, even if no electrical cords were included (which they were)! Perhaps the person complaining should have asked some questions before making the purchase...If that person really wants cords that are thicker (due to more insulation, not necessarily a larger wire gauge), then I think he/she should either purchase a new complete boxed controller during the LOR sale, or given the price he/she saved by purchasing from Robin, order the cord sets LOR sells and install them himself.Geesh!

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Come to think of it...the arches I bought from Robin were only 6 segment, and I was hoping for 7...I can't believe he didn't know that, and address the issue in advance.And I paid a whopping 2 bucks/arch for those..thats 12 whole dollars I spent.I didn't have the pleasure of seeing the emails, or the post re the issue, but it does sound like it is the kind of person who you want to encourage to find another hobby...

Robin Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 OMG it is freaky seeing so many of me! Make it go away!Actually, thanks guys but we have beat that dead horse enough. George the way strobes are they can work today and not work tomorrow.My daughter helped me with the strobes but I had to do all the controllers myself. Real pain.Anyway, thanks for the love and now I need to change my signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightORamaDan Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I agree that we no longer need to beat the dead horse. It is apparent to me that Robin advertized 20 amp controllers in enclosures and wired. BearNTrish expected the controllers to be wired to handle 20 amps per side.The controllers did have cards that could handle 20 amps per side BUT were not wired to do so. One controller had 14awg power feeds (about 15 amps per side) and the other had 16awg power feeds (about 13 amps per side).Condensed version:Robin offered to take the controllers back.I believe that the advertizment could have been worded better but I do not believe that Robin intentionally tried to snucker anyone. It is fairly common to describe the CTB16D as 20 amps per side but the wording in the advertizement could and did lead some people to believe that the controllers were wired to handle 20 amps.I believe that BearNTrish has the right to warn people to be careful because at least with the controllers he received from Robin the power cords could not handle 20 amps.What I would like to see is that people in this forum try to keep form getting overly emotional about such things. Being a basicly calm person I do not know exactly why people get so emotional but I see it happen every day from riots after ball games to things on this forum.Thank You...
