Vibration Hour Meter

Great hour meter. It's setup is 'interesting' as one has to 'cut' a wire in order to activate it. (I guess that's not a bad idea!). The vibration sensitivty is advertied as most sensitive when mounted face up. That's how I used it. I'm using it on my PCP high pressure air compressor. Actually, my compressor does not vibrate too much, so I was initially worried that this would not pickup the vibrations. It did. Impressive. The only comment/complaint I have against this is: The instructions advise the user to either use 'double sided tape' or 'screws' (which are included) to mount the meter. The screws are included. The double-sided tape is not. Good thing I had some on hand. I do like how it reads hours in 1/10 of an hour (i.e. standard decimal notation) instead of trying to display HH:MM. Anyways, great meter, low cost and does the job!

Great no holes assembly. Works off generator vibration thus it can be wrong; traveling in vehicles. Etc. Good to monitor your service cycle on generators, etc if they stay home. Otherwise, still a proactive assistant regardless if home or mobile.

I got the Aimilar timer for my 30-gallon air compressor to help me keep track of oil changes. Read on for our evaluation -- MEDIUM SENSITIVITY WORKED FINE: Since the timer has to be installed vertically, it's in the medium sensitivity mode but did not have a problem sensing the air compressor pump running as shown in the video. -- MOUNTS WITH 2 SIDE TAPE: The back of the unit is not flat. So I had to use 2 layers of foam 2 side tape to make sure it held well to the air compressor pump. I used 3M foam 2 side tape to attach the face of the air compressor pump. -- PROVIDES VIBRATION SENSE FEEDBACK: The timer worked well and sensed the compressor running and there is a small area of the display that activates when the timer is running to give you some positive feedback and it working. -- NO TIMER RESET: It would have been nice if it could be reset, say at the oil change, but there is no ability to reset the time that I can read anywhere or find on the device. -- INCOMPLETE PACKAGE: The delivered package had a large empty blister meant for something but it was empty...not sure what that was about ....maybe a screwdriver? -- NEED TO SNIP THE WIRE LOOP: Luckily I read the instructions as you need to snip the wire loop for the unit to activate. -- OPERATING LIFE: The webpage says it has an operating life of 2 years and I'll report back especially if stops sooner than that.

This our meter works well for its purpose. I would buy again.

Excelente calidad 100% recomendado para las hidrolavadoras

Works as advertised on 5hp compressor base plate. It stopped recording at 19 months and the battery can't be changed. I really need something more permanent and that can be maintained. I'm looking at options for a replacement.

I have this mounted in the engine bay of my truck where there is plenty of vibration. It's been there for a little over 30 days and has not logged any time so far. Just to note for others, you do have to cut the little wire sticking out of it for it to work according to the directions. I guess these are just hit and miss cheapos, I'll find something better on the next purchase. I wanted this to work. Most people don't that changing the oil in their vehicles by mileage or date isn't very accurate, and if you commute a lot you are probably not changing it often enough. When it comes to mechanical equipment like engines it is recommended to change the oil every 200hrs. If you can find one of these that is actually worth the money you pay for it, it could also save you some in the long run.

Siimple, works well

I requested to return the product, till this time it is not pocket up.

I wanted to know hours of operation of a heater and research (incorrectly) indicated that this device was senstive enough to do that. It's not. Works fine where there is a reasonable sharp tap or vibrate but needs more that my fan motor does.

I bought this item back in 2024 for my mower. It is now on its second year, and , does not work anymore. Trying to return for the warranty of 2 years. Hopefully i get one. The one with the wire to the spark plug wire works much better
