Some feedback from Eric on the equipment:

I have no idea the story on this as of writing this I do not have a model or wavelength.

No clue if they work.

> - Any idea what's wrong with the heat blocks?
The heat blocks are duplicates just with frayed cords.

Sounds like Eric is planning to look into the spec some more, so it may or may not be available after all...

Duane I know you feel passionally about the shaking incubator but unless it is repaired it cannot stay no exceptions on this one. sorry.

Centrifuge (In working order but works stops randomly)
Shaking incubator (Needs repair)
Shaking water bath (Heating element dangerous)
Apple computer (Needs repair)
Hitachi Spectrometer (Needs repair)
Gas chronograph (Needs repair)
HPLC (the recent acquisition and the old HPLC) (Needs repair)
Tecan Spectrometer (Not working) (No Photo)
1970's balence Functional maybe but have not checked
NEW -20 Needs a good home works but as is has a defrost cycle (Blows every 20 amp fuse in our building If we want to use it we need a higher amp breaker)
Deconstructed machines in office
Laser from Q-PCR machine (looks Functional but cannot tell powers up but need on/off control signals from computer)
2 printers (Non-functional)
A couple of non-functional heat blocks.
