Can anyone tell me anything about a chronos bed? I am thinking about buying a 2006 whitesun chronos- my nerves are telling me to run away but I'm like a moth to the flame because the price is so low for a bed that has quite a bit of wow factor. something has to be wrong with it. I could probably fix many problems but I can't even find anything about servicing this thing. It has about 1800 hrs- is 33000 watts, etc. I'm worried about servicing/parts of course, does anyone know a supplier for parts? I can't even find a manual online or get a manual from the reseller- and I've talked to the owner of the closed salon that it came out of. He can't help me with a manual either. He says that it worked "fine" when the reseller/repo removed it from the salon. This was probably oriiginally invoiced at 28000
Any solid info would be a great help- thanks greg judson@hotmail.com |

Chronos parts are no problem.It uses the same glass and lamps as the magic,ballast and ignitors no problem .Acrilics all available.Tantech can supply you with all the parts and advice you need on this machine.I own 2 of them,very popular beds.6,000 plus hrs and counting on one 3500 hrs on the othor.circut boards are very reliable.Sun italia originally desinged the board,so you don't need to rely on white sun.

thanks uv2021- you don't have an owner's manual for this bed by any chance that you could email or copy or anything? I've talked to patryck, he is actually familiar with the exact bed that I am may be buying. I am concerned because the salon owner of this bed bought a second chronos to use as a backup for this one. The bed he got for parts is now missing a small circuit board. He removed it to put into the bed I am buying. Patryck is having a hard time obtaining a circuit board for the second bed. The quality of this more recently made bed is in question. I think that it might have to do with a statement about whitesun that he told me. He stated that whitesun used to make a better product than it has in recent years.

I've had two in the past. They Tan very very well. Some parts took a little tracking down but I always found what I needed 5K is a very reasonable price. They are very impressive during tours and the results rock.

I own one of these monsters and love it! My customers love it too. Its a great money maker. We did have to bring in additional power for it though. If the HUGE transformer box is NOT included then I wouldnt buy it. Make sure its included in the price.
If you got or can get the power for it its a great deal. |
