: : I read about this in HERE by Custom Arcade about this Radioshack product Virbrating Detector but I can't find it anywhere. I went to Radioshack.com type the part number, Search and also I went ot a local Radioshack give them the part number and NOTHING.....Nothing I tell you... Where Did CUSTOM Arcade get there piece from? Or is this just a hipe from Custom Arcade?
: Well I clicked the search on the left hand side and then typed in vibration and found this at the top of the list:
: http://www.arcadecontrols.speedhost.com/arcade_vdt.shtml
: It even includes a photo of the device in the Radio Shack package.
: I searched for the part number on the Radio Shack site and found no match. Since any part has a name as well as a part number, I then searched for part of the name (vibration). I quickly found:
: http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F006%5F003%5F001%5F007&product%5Fid=980%2D0823
: Apparently Radio Shack has given it a new number (980-0823). I am quite sure Custom Arcade could not forsee the future and had no control over how Radio Shack renumbered their own products.
Thanks Mike....Even Radioshack sucks ONLINE. I thought just the sales people stinks but when I type in Search: Vibration Detector, it displays two choices, Where can I purchase=Metal Detector
Where can I buy.....etc....Thanks for the link, and of course my LOCAL RS don't know what I was talking about cause this product says its not on stores (that a nice way to sell them, none of our local store has it) maybe they are going to get rid of local stores and just buy everyting online....hehe no more silly sale person to talk to cause they don't know what your yalking about anyways...Well maybe my local RS at least I feel that way and may your LOCAL RS might not be as silly as mine.....Thanks again....Now on to ordering and how about some comments if anyone tried this at all...
