Remote Start and Stop

Anyone have any suggestions on a good remote start/stop supplier for pressure washers? Our last supplier seems to have disappeared...
We switched the last one out with a generic wireless module for a car, but the wiring seems weak and gets a little too hot when starting from cold.

I got mine from US carburation, around $80 or so if I remember right.

Tony, Is it still working out for you? Would you still recommend them??

Thanks

It works great if you isolate it from the vibration. We did that by wrapping the receiving unit in cloth and laying it in the control panel of the skid. There are lots of ways to reduce vibration.

I used it more for shutting the unit off and turning the heat on and off more than turning the machine on.

When we switched skids I took it off to put on the other unit and forgot about it. I only remember it when I'm on a roof and need to shut the unit off. I'll reinstall it once the heat breaks here.

Wow, hits the choke and burner too! That's impressive. Did you ever post the detailed instillation? What is the moving part that toggles the choke?
Is it still working well for you? That remote looks a little small like the cheap substitute we are using. Our old wireless solutions one was like a small brick! A little larger than the new "folding spring loaded" key/remotes. The guys did get a little too confident, tossing it on and off the roof...

Call Russ at Southside Equipment 888-243-6506 I'm sure he can help you out.

Here is the installation video. The only bad thing is your are forcedto choose between choke or burner. There's not enough buttons for both. Fortunately in our climate we don't need choke after the initial start on the 20 hp honda.
