Improved E-Z Eye Bin Level Indicator
We recently unveiled a new, improved model. It won awards at both the Minnesota Inventors Congress at Redwood Falls, Minn., and the Western Canada Farm Progress Show at Regina, Sask., this summer.
We call the new bin level indicator the LevAlert. It still provides a handy visual color change to indicate the level of grain in the bin. However, the LevAlert installs completely from outside the bin by drilling a 1 1/ 8 in. dia. hole in the wall where you want to position it. It now features an activator, which rotates a black and yellow 1 1/2-in. dia. color tube as material pushes against it, instead of a pressure plate and fluid-filled tube. The LevAlert can be seen from 300 ft. away in daylight and is also reflective for easy night viewing. Can be electronically monitored. Sells for $99. (Tom C.
