Re: Something Better Than Repairs Is Coming

So you're doing the upgrade yourself and that isn't going as well as you expected. Without hearing the rest of the story I'm glad I'm letting them rebuild everything. I'm hoping to avoid "another story". I wouldn't know what to do with the "mod residue" anyway, so it would just sit in a forgotten ...

Re: Something Better Than Repairs Is Coming

My power pro 1 works well and I really like it. But sometimes the screen will go off and yet it is still on. Not a problem as long as I know what I set it last. It will reset if I turn it off completely, wait a bit, then turn it back on. Kind of made me nervous wondering if it would happen more ...

Re: 510 to 520 upgrade?

I agree with Dusty on the accuracy of the 510 and 520 system. I have one of each. The one thing I really like more about the 520 system is the knobs are easier for me to tighten and loosen than the rollers on the 510.
