A search gives me quite a few hits on "Ecogate" from this group. Hope my questions below haven't been answered before....
Are there any competitors to Ecogate
One post said the vibration sensors aren't very good -- use the toroidal sensors, instead. Hmm. According to Ecogate's web page, the toroidal sensors only work on machines with motors no larger than 2 HP. My Unisaw is 3 HP. Does the Unisaw have enough vibration to allow the vibration sensor to work.
I have a vacuum system to my Unisaw, a 2 HP bandsaw, and a 6 inch Jet jointer. ANy wods of wisdom on using Ecogate (or their competitor) on these tools? BTW, my other tools are hooked up to a Fein Turbo II - I move them around a lot in my tiny shop.
