Installers sucked indeed. Suncapsule has very good installer i think named Bill or Mike. Mine was installed by Jason - no complaints.

So you say it doesn't tan?
A. Buy a 5.0 meter, actually 5.0 and 7.0. $250 well spent. Your 7.0 meter should be showing 34 Meds while holding it with sensor pointing towards lamps in the middle of the booth.
B. Buy voltmeter in Home Cheapo.
C. Pull out the plug from side of the door in the stand up a little. Start the unit. Check voltage between flat prongs while unit is running. In order for it to tan within 7 minutes the voltage on the prongs should be 240-245 volts. Usual buckbooster is +32. Supersonic buckbooster is +38. So your buckbooster is +38 or higher - it must be wired to the maximum add on voltage.
PS. Black end mean nothing.
Good luck.
