Who has parts for an Apollo DPV (Dacor) SV900. I need one of the run relays in the control system. I'm in Seattle


Did you blow the relay by gettting something stuck in there?

A relay is as easy as your local Dacor dealer... or remove the thing and take it to a friendly electrical contractor who can probably get you an equivalent relay at a far better price. If it's a dedicated relay similar to what's found on some tech scooters - best to have it replaced by the manufacturer.

I do not have a battery factory charger so I charged the battery with a motorcycle "trickle" charger. It was working fine but I decided to leave the unit on the charger for a couple more hours and that is when it quit working. Don't know if I over charged it of if it just happen to go out due to a fully charged battery. This unit is several years old and was a rental that bought pretty cheap.

If your unit & batteries are older...I would suggest getting new SLA's, a smart charger and hit up/source out the local Apollo/Dacor dealer for that relay. Again, it shouldn't be too difficult a part to get sourced by an electrical contractor. Why spend the bucks on a part that is probably not custom made and marked up 400%?

Ok, back to the original topic I once scootered through some ctenophores in the water column. I did feel bad about it, but probably not as much as the critters. A scallop bag in the props - ca-thunk!
