It doesn’t matter what was said. A marketing person messaged you. Not the owners or opperators. Thank you for understanding.
Our goal is to have professional companies with experience in the industry vending this product. It would be a embaressment to me if we chose inadequate or careless representatives to properly educated and resell those products. It’s about ethics, honesty, and quality. Customer happiness and product quality is important to me.
I appreciate the offer, but That’s not my bag. Was just looking for someone close here in Michigan that could vend it.
Me not being that vendor.

they are the only chinese glass company that I can recommend.
Laboy and many others over there use soda lime glass. Tried to modify the neck on a Laboy flask once. Shit started popping like a sparkler. Tell tale sign of soda lime glass composition… Just remember that a ball jar can hold deep vac too…

I guess you sell glass or are on the side of a glass seller.
this stuff is used by many in sciencemadness and others i have known.
have you ever tried to put soda glass under high temps.
thermal shock comes to mind yes.
Not while heated unevenly by a mantle. When I was 5-6 yo I tried to boil some water in a jar on the stove, mom was hella mad!
Hey Q-tip, look up class B borosilicate and educate yourself
that still does not prove anything.
I have had so many chemicals in there glass as have others.
I have had it under hard vac and over 300C
never and I mean never had any of it break.
and now you wish to add some more to your specification that is a long shot from
soda lime glass
I have used a lot of glass schott chem glass pyrex kimax heaps of chinese brands.

Our producds are made of borosilicate glass 3.3
go ahead pay a couple of hundred bucks for something that is worth 20
@spdking just call your sales team and tell them you told me to call? Or what
So @david offered to send me another one for free or offered a refund.
So ya I was pissed off it happened and it put us back a week. But that’s a stand up response. I definitely applaud the customer service. On top of the fact his are only like 200-300$ instead of the 750-1200$ from our USA options…
I know if they’re coming in bulk from glass suppliers at like 50-100 at a time the MOST they could cost is like 350$ and that’s expensive. Crazy mark ups.
But that’s pretty normal.
Lab societies temp gauge readout box that hooks up to thermocouples to read your vapor temp they want 1100$ for a single readout and 1400$ for a dual read out.
Straight from glass col they are 350$…
Moral of the story ORDER EVERYTHING direct from glass col.
A 400% mark up ?? That’s some shilock loan shark margins there. Just messed up.
I believe the LS controllers u are referring to are mantle drivers and monitors. The GC unit is only a temp monitor. Also, I believe j-kem makes them for both companies.
I have a really bad ass temp controller that is remote controlled, one touch recipe software for free and will not over shoot. Hit me up.
David uses the same valves as every other Chinese manufacturer and they usually have the PTFE wrapping around the oring which prevents a good seal. You need elastomer material to seal and it needs to have a specific amount of compression to seal well and last. These are the little things that actually separate the domestic options from Chinese. The glassblower has to buy those parts from somewhere to fabricate and usually the quality of those parts and materials are not as good. The errors and problem that stem from that build up and the more complicated the work the worse it will turn out.
The cost for the parts alone is over $100 domestically not including any labor so not sure about the others but you can see how with labor and over head a $500 price tag is very reasonable.
I’ll build you one
