Re: soltron beds

Jk Soltron becomes Sun/Ergoline after aquiring Sun Industries, which then becomes Ergoline (which used to be a bed model of JK's), Which then becomes Soltron and at what point will they add back the JK to complete the circle? Making them once again Jk Soltron.

Re: soltron beds

Our local distributor is Tan ME and they are located south of Minneapolis Minnesota. They have sold Sundash Beds since day one. Soltron are nearly identical to Ergoline Products but Soltron has different colors and logos. There appear to be a few Soltron Models that are slightly different than Ergoline. The touchdown does not have facial lamps where the Ergoline 350 does. The Ergoline 350 has 120 watt lamps top and bottom where the Soltron has 120 watt lamps in the canopy and 100 watt lamps in the bench. There are a few other unique Soltron Models but I have not seen any in the local area. PatParadise

Wait until the software is not available to even the hunchbacks.

Re: soltron beds

We have never been able to get anyone to service our tanning beds. Once in a while the programming gets fouled and we have to re-address a bed manually. JK has instructions on their web site to perform this task manually and yes it is difficult. A laptop with their software makes fixing easier. But most the time parts they break are easy to spot, broken wires, failed starters, bad lamps, bad lamps, and a failed ballast. He have replaced timers and electronic boards. The last boards we replaced are easier as JK now has only one replacement board for all beds. Tan Me our distributor has provided great technical help and are happy to sell us parts and trouble shoot break downs. Try looking at the bed wiring and part diagrams they are useful for making repairs, PatParadise

Re: soltron beds

We have 3 salons and have a soltron equipment. Yes the acrylics have been an issue but I have decided to use Sun Corp for replacing them. At $360 a piece, it will be worth the try. Easy units to replace lamps and have not had very many problems in 3 years with them. They have been a money maker for us.
