Title: Gardiner pole Systems Super Zero system dissapeared from website?
Post by: [GQC] Tim on November 05, 2010, 06:48:32 pm
Something strange going on? I wanted to research their system for a new van setup in the future, but it's no longer there?

Do they still sell them?  (or......did they replace their systems with a trolley? ha ha )

As far as I know, the engineer who built them left with either little or no notice!

I don't know what the situation is regarding if or when they might re-start production.

Yes, it's even got a starting handle at the back.

Hmm, that's a shame. It showed great potential, hopefully they can get somebody else or sort something out.

I have one of them, and it's pretty good.

The knowledge that you have a tank that might not come through the bulkhead in an accident is quite rewarding.  I say "might" deliberately, as a sop to the doubters.  The normal argument on here goes that it's been tested in one van under one set of circumstances so the tests mean nothing.  I just think that a system that's had some kind of test is infinitely less likely to hit me from behind than a tank held in with a set of bungee cords that someone reckons should hold it.

Mine's a 600l delivery only system and it's been flawless so far, bar one of the connectors on the exterior ports. 

I had a twin pump setup because when one of them fails, I can switch over to the other immediately and carry on working.  The alternative is cancelling a day's work, going home, ordering another pump, waiting for it to arrive then fitting it.  At some point one of them will fail; I've just moved the purchase date of the replacement to the day I had the van kitted out.

Fitting was a delight.  Drive to Cornwall, drop van off, then pass ten hours on foot in St Austell without going mad.  Fortunately, my last trip was into a betting shop where I backed a 10/1 winner with a couple of quid which paid for the breakfast, lunch, coffees, cakes and biscuits that I'd eaten in a futile attempt to make the day pass quicker.  Next time, I'll rent a car for the day and pootle off somewhere.

The last I heard from Alex is that he's going to be giving this more effort in spring.  His focus will be on streamlining manufacturing the units to get prices lower.  I really do hope so, as I would like to build my expansion on vans fitted with his equipment.  I don't fancy paying the lunatic prices charged for other people's crash-tested systems, so I may have to wait.

The biggest factor for me is the integrity of the guy who designed and sold me the system.. I trust Alex with my life literally, cant say that about many suppliers

I am saving up for a new van and would love to see if they will ever come back. Atleast the tank and frame/fitting kit.
