tooldini Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Does anyone use battery powered LED lights to draw attention to your machine in locations with multiple machines. I am pretty sure I seen these somewere but can't remember were. Sounds like a good idea to me just thought I would ask you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooldini Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 I would think they would work great in crowded locations. I hope I never have to deal with that but I think I would try it if it comes to that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidsurvz Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I think Kelly was asking about this recently and someone put a link up where to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mage Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I think Kelly was asking about this recently and someone put a link up where to get them. This was the thread: http://VENDiscuss.com/forum/index.php?topic=7150.0 And this was the link: http://www.flashingblinkylights.com/index.php Even though I haven't bought anything from them, it was the first link I bookmarked after I signed up for this site. Edit I figure I should have the link to their homepage, and not a product page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dperry Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 That flashingblinkiylights.com looks like an awesome place to get some flashing jewelry for some leader items. I may buy a set and put some in capsules and put them in some slow selling items. I think it would be kewl to have some of those flashing lights on the display as well as it would have the same effect of catching the eye.

Some of those pins and jewelry items are not intended for children under 7 years of age. Click on what you like on the website and the details give you the age restriction (if any). Just as an example: The Rudolph Reindeer pin and the blinking LED rings are not for the under-7 group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mage Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Since they sell the batteries @10¢ each, (plus shipping obviously,) at that price you could keep changing them each month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlock Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Location was averaging $51.00/4 wks and today I collected $57.50. So I guess maybe the lights helped, who knows. Was hoping for a bigger jump, but its all good. Assuming the 12 flashing lights will last a year (30days ea): If you increase your gross by $6 per month on average and it's probably due to that LED light. Keep doing it. After LED purchase/shipping costs are accounted for, you just grossed an extra $48 a year off that machine ($6 x 12 = $72 minus $24 LED cost). May not sound like much, but considerng it takes only a very little extra effort, kudos to you. I'm going to keep this in mind if I get a location with dim lighting.

tooldini Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 Seems like something everyong in a busy location could at least try. I know I will if I ever get that busy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Coast Vend LLC Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Kelly, The LED lights sound hopeful however you need to have about 4-6 months to really tell if they have any affect on your volume. Maybe it would have been a lower than average month and the lights actually brought you up even higher than you think. Like you said, it would have been nice if you had seen a better increase. Thanks for running a test for the forums. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPVendCo. Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 theres probably a watch battery in there.....if you can get to it without damaging everything to get to it.... was the LED on when you got there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havending Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Cardinal is not very good at updating their site.. They often have products that dont make it to there site. its good to call them once a month or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
