Thank you!
As you know it's not just a cheap bag of wires with flaky instructions. It is very well put together..and it works

Its simple but effective and well well thought out.

Ashas been said other types are available but I think Bruce's may be the pick of the crop

Hey Bruce, you really don’t need to do any advertising, just let the lads do the promotions for you & success is a fore gone conclusions.
Asda are looking for a chief executive, with your track record in sales, the road may be wide & straight for you to walk right in.

Thanks for all of the generous comments.

As it happens, I picked up the original idea from a post here on The T Bar.  The original poster was never interested in pursuing the idea but I made myself a prototype before refining the alarm into a saleable item.  I tested the market with help from 10 members of this very forum who provided some enormously useful feedback before I started selling them on eBay back in 2019.

It was never my intention to make a load of money.  I never expected to sell more than a few!   It was started more as a hobby and to help out fellow owners of MGF and TF cars.  I still make them on my dining room table when I have some free time!

They have found their way to every corner of the UK and Europe.  There are quite a few Down Under and even some in the USA and, of all places, Russia!

There have been numerous refinements over the years.  Fortunately, they have been very reliable, as I dread the prospect of needing to provide more than the very occasional support I have needed to provide so far.

As for ASDA, if I were to make them any money, I'd need to double the price at least 

Thank you to everyone here who has bought one or recommended them to others :-)

Have you thought of selling them through Mgfntfbitz or Mike Satur. A coolant alarm is conspicuously absent from their sites

Sorry, I’m sat having lunch on the summit level of the Leeds Liverpool canal & I can tell you that there’s no low water problem here.
It is dead calm here, with every wind farm moribund & costing us money to do nothing.
I am going to coin a new word for these conditions; Millibund after our illustrious energy minister.
