I have had one that looks very similar to that for 5 years and still going strong - from Waterfed Pole System Ltd (no longer trading).

Puzzled as to why you can buy it from WCW but not seem to from Polarbrite.

I have always worried about having a digital flow controller as people seem to often get problems with them. Which one do you have?

Why have you stopped making them?

Do you not think they are more reliable than the digital ones?

I've had one of those Polabrite controllers for about a year. Never let me down and less to go wrong than the digital ones.

I've had a digital varistream for about 3 years & it's worked perfect every day. ;)

Couldn't be without it.

We were having them made for us, to our design, very simple and very reliable, however the price from our supplier kept raising, so we could not compete, so now we only sell the crows digital which are very good. I don't think WCW have any of our non digital controllers, so 1 left only!

Try a diferent supp;ier?

Surely there must be enough of a mark up for someone as it is a very simple design, especially in this economic climate.

(just make sure its a crowe controller if you buy new one)
