Geberit Type 01, Type 10, and Type 70 pneumatic flush buttons allow bathroom designers to position flush activation anywhere within a 5.5 ft radius of the concealed tank. In special construction situations requiring enhanced user comfort and accessibility, a Geberit remote flush is the optimal solution. Geberit flush buttons can be installed in bathroom furniture and solid wall or drywall construction. Geberit remote buttons are available in dual-flush and single-flush models and in a variety of sizes, colors, materials and finishes. Special collars and cover plates are available to conceal the flush opening and give a sleek look to the final installation. “The pneumatics of the Geberit remote flush buttons are stress tested for years. A gentle touch is all it takes to activate a Geberit flush button, thanks to the hydraulic servo lifter,” says Ronn Jefferson, Product Manager for Geberit North America. “Geberit remote flush buttons are perfect when a bathroom layout calls for actuation in a different location. That’s especially important when reaching behind to flush is difficult or even painful for the user.”

Geberit maintains a strong local presence on most continents, including North America, providing concealed systems for wall-hung and floor-mounted toilets and fixtures.

About Milwaukee Tool

When you’re on the job, you want your Oakley sunglasses to be handy — and you want them to be safe. Checking blueprints or scrutinizing permit paperwork? Better have those reading glasses somewhere you can find them!

Construction sites are hard on anything delicate or fragile — especially prescription lenses. We’ve all lost a pair of glasses from a shirt pocket when we leaned over just a bit too far… Or ground our teeth in frustration when a pair of really nice frames gets snagged and pulled apart. And lost? We believe every new building in the country sits on a foundation of misplaced tools, missing paperwork, and lost glasses.

According to the Vision Council of America, about 64% of adults wear prescription eyeglasses. According to informal polls, 100% of them have lost at least one pair. When you’re on the job, lost lenses can be more than just an inconvenience. Many construction professionals we’ve spoken to routinely carry at least two pairs of prescription eyeglasses — because they fully expect to lose one.

Inventor F. Thomas Godart realized the scope of this problem personally while working on new construction sites in South Florida. After the eighth or ninth pair of glasses fell out of his pocket, or off his shirt, or slipped off his head and vanished for all time, he’d had enough. He wanted to offer the world an answer, not just for lost eyeglasses, but also to protect against scratches and breaks.

After years of studying commercially-available glasses cases and testing them to destruction, Tom engineered the perfect solution to keep his glasses where they belonged. He added integrated BlueTooth technology and a GPS locator beacon for an additional level of security. He hasn’t managed to lose a single pair of glasses since.

After several years of real-world stress testing, Godart’s invention is ready to solve the lost-and-damaged-eyeglasses problem so many of us face.

He calls it EyeCarry.

EyeCarry is much more than an eyeglasses case — it’s a portable bodyguard for your prescription lenses that calls for help if you try to lose them. The integrated Gator Clip stays attached to your belt even after a fall off a roof (fortunately, the roofer only had minor bruises). EyeCarry pings your smartphone via BlueTooth if you get more than 100 feet away, like when you get an important call and start to drive off the work site.

Features

• Bluetooth-enabled case pings your phone if you’re more than 100 feet (30 m) away
• Gator Clip clasps your belt or purse strap and keeps EyeCarry secure
• GPS-powered find-my-glasses feature saves time and headaches
• Rugged yet refined, stylish enough for the boardroom
• Nearly universal fit (suitable for most styles worn today)

Just think how much more work you’ll get done knowing you’ll never misplace or lose your glasses. You’ll never have to squint at a contract or a work order without being able to see clearly. You won’t waste half an hour you really don’t have digging through tool belts or searching the floorboards of your vehicle for a pair of wayward glasses. You won’t walk past another slapdash installation job without noticing — not when EyeCarry’s at your side.

EyeCarry is available in a rainbow of colors chosen to blend in with your gear:

• Caviar
• Saddle
• Sapphire
• Slate
• Praline

A-iPower, a manufacturer of portable generators, pressure washers, water pumps, and gasoline engines, introduces its SUA15000EC portable generator with powerful 15,000 starting watts and 12,000 running watts. Pure sine wave technology delivers less than five percent THD (total harmonic distortion), producing clean power to safely run sensitive electronic and digital products.

Its high performance makes it an excellent choice for construction sites or backup for a commercial business or home. With a 680cc/24hp OHV twin-cylinder engine, combined with an efficient high-output alternator designed and manufactured by Senci, this unit delivers greater peak wattage allowing motor-driven appliances and tools to operate simultaneously. An intelligent automatic voltage regulator (AVR) helps minimize voltage fluctuations and delivers consistent power under load. A keyless one-touch button electric start provides an effortless startup.

Easy power connections are made through multiple front panel outlets. Weather-resistant outlet covers offer added protection from the environment and rugged working conditions. An eight-gallon, heavy-duty, all-steel tank with built-in fuel gauge delivers an average run time of seven hours at 50 percent load.

Other features include low-oil shutdown to automatically protect the engine from potential damage; a dual element air filter to help extend engine life, and a built-in DC Adapter plug with DC charging cables for battery charging or use with a USB adapter.

Outlets include two NEMA 120VAC 20A GFCI-protected outlets; one NEMA 120/140VAC 50A, 14-50R industrial-grade outlet; one NEMA 120VAC 30A L14 twist-lock outlet; and one NEMA 120VAC 30A, L5-30R twist-lock outlet.

For heavy-duty loads and improved traction and mobility over rough terrain, the SUA15000EC has four-inch, four-way, never-flat wheels. Wheel locks allow for safely parking the generator. A lifting hook is included for added security on the jobsite.

A 12V-36AH maintenance-free battery also is included.
