The 3W's are the same price as the 3A's...around $99. I had to replace one of my 3A's with one a couple months ago. I'm not doing the wireless thing, so I'm not sure what the accessories cost.

Sorry to get off the main subject.....the MAGIC Rocks!!!! Go MAGIC!!!

My 06 Magic has a body mister and aroma therapy. The spray is a little coarse, not a real fine mist like some of them. I have never had a problem with it in over 2 years. For whatever reason the 07
model didn't come wth it.

Is that good for the lamps??? Seems to me that the exhaust fans might suck some of that moisture in onto the lamps.. I would think over time that would realy hurt the lamp life??

[BIG AL]

The mist is not a real fine mist. It hits the body and stays to be evaporated by the fans. You may be right, I could have gotten 1200 hours from the lamps instead of only 1000 hours or so.

Ya I dont know... Ive seen a few beds coming out with that as a added feature and I have always been a little unsure about it.

Maybe it has no negative effect at all.. I just think combining water and tanning bed lamps and electronics isnt the greatest of ideas but what do I know..

It hasn't seemed to hurt any of the beds yet now in the last few years. Making problems where there are none is a sign of a pessimist.

[certan]

Im not making a problem I was asking a question to the people that actually use the misters on their equipment.

Apparently it doesnt cause any problems

Logically it just seems like it would but if it doesnt GREAT!

[Drew]

I think a mist of fresh water would evaporate as it neared the inside of the bed and be sucked right past parts and blown out.

It wouldn't be much different than a really humid area.

Now, salons within a couple hundred feet of the ocean may have corrosion due to salt.

[certan]

Sounds good to me

My stupid portable home humidifiers' mist deposits white powder-dust on everything nearby... especially TV's. Supposedly it is calcium or something in the water supply. Filters don't help much.

If the tanning bed misters don't do that on filter glass, etc, then you must have better (more pure) water than I have...

[BIG AL]

I use distilled water in the misters. Never had a problem.

[EliteMike]

I was told you MUST use distilled water or you will have this problem all the time

[SUNNYDAYS]

UWE uses triple distilled water.

[solarmeter®]

So I need to boil my damn city water first?

Or just go buy distilled in the grocery store for more per gallon than gasoline I suppose...

Nah - just wait for spring when the furnace shuts off and static electricity goes away.

did you buy this bed from San Diego? i saw it on craigslist and one of these forums. if you did, you may be in for some trouble.

I spoke to someone out in San Diego about a magic he was selling for 4-5k. He apparently had no idea what he had. After doing some research, I uncovered there was flooding at this location due to a roof being torn off the building. As a result, the insurance company and Sun Italia wrote off the bed (including all liability) and sent the owner a check to purchase a new unit. Instead, he fixed the roof, dried out the bed and then sold the salon. That's not the half of it.

After asking for pictures of the bed, it looks totally normal/ok, and operational according to the owner. However, there are three transformer boxes indicating the power in the that salon is considered a crazy leg. If you don't have a crazy leg in your 3 phase power, you will need to purchase a regular transformer for this bed.

Also, Sun Italia had the original owner sign off on all liability for this bed since it was under water.

I pray you didn't purchase this bed.

Wow, now this post is beginning to make sense! Could be the one from san diego and is why lavatroy was always hesitant to mention what he paid. Well, he will make it work...but might have to go for one of those low interest loans coming our way with all the interest reductions. I just passed on a deal too good to be true on an omega...once i saw the pictures...it was a basket case! All in pieces.
Well. i still wish lavatroy the best!!!

I have read this post with great interest and don't even have an HP! I have learned quite a bit and someday may use alll the info in purchasing a unit. Thanks to all! Hope this is not the same unit in a flood...
