Introducing Horst Miracle Probes

HORST MIRACLE PROBES

An inaccurate level reading from either your fresh and waste water tank is annoying and frustrating for the Caravan and Motorhome enthusiast.

But, now, direct from the USA,  Premier Leisure Products in conjunction with TankBlanket can offer you Horst Miracle Probes.

This is the probe that gives you accurate tank fluid levels time and time again!

 The Horst Miracle Probe 



supplied in sets of four

Remains accurate - even with a 'sludge film'  build up!

&

it's easy to install!

&

It works with your existing electrical circuit and control panel!

All you have to do is simply insert Horst Miracle Probes next to your current probes and swap the electrical connections over!

Why do they work?!

• They have a special Teflon coating that eliminates false electrical readings.

• The 'Sludge film' that builds up in every tank does not stick to the Teflon.

• Teflon is not conductive. So no false electrical circuits are established.

• Traditional probes do not work after a while due to an electrical circuit being made between the 'sludge film' on the inside of the tank and all of the probes. As a result, a false reading is transmitted to your control panel.

The Miracle Probe Set up

• The three probes on the left in the above photograph are positioned to sense the water levels at 25% 50% and 75%. They are designated as +ve in the electrical circuit.

• The single probe on the bottom right is designated as the -ve.

• When powered, electrical current flows between the metal tips of the probes connected to the +ve and -ve sides of the leisure battery.

• Because of the iron content of water as the probes are submerged an electrical circuit is made and the relevant indicator on the control panel is energised.

Installation

• You can simply install Horst Miracle Probes yourself. Although if you do not feel confident then....

• Any Motorhome or Caravan Dealer with an approved workshop can install Horst Miracle Probes.

• The simplest way to install Horst Miracle Probes is to mount them next to your existing probes and simply switch the electrical connections over.

• The Horst miracle Probe needs a 9.5mm [3/8"] hole. You then insert the probe and tighten the first nut to make a firm leak proof seal. 

• Connect the electrial wires in the same sequence as your current installation using the second nut provided with each Miracle probe to secure the electrial connection.

TankBlanket's Impact!

TankBlanket’s Impact!

TankBlanket: The Campervan Motorhome & Caravan Tank Heater Pad

 

From TankBlanket’s assistance in ‘raising the bar’ to Nick’s statement that he was ‘happy to share a secret’ there is no denying that TankBlanket has made an impact and is growing in popularity since its UK launch in 2013.

 

Since its inauguration TankBlanket has evolved as a brand, received positive Press and developed a strong social media presence. So we thought it would be a good idea, to take stock, share some of the articles in one Blog and create a reference point to look back on as TankBlanket continues to expand. 

 

Over the last few months TankBlanket has had a presence in Caravan Industry & Park Operator, Practical Motorhome and the Motorcaravan Motorhome Monthly magazine. And during the past few weeks, TankBlanket has linked up with World of Motorhomes and Motorhome Facts.

 

In the ethereal world of social media, TankBlanket has developed a strong Twitter community with over six hundred followers which continues to grow daily with the most popular tweets being #tankblanketinterestingfacts.

 

So, please follow the links below, puruse and enter the ‘World of TankBlanket’:

Following positive feedback from our social media community here is a collection of TankBlanket’s  ‘Interesting facts’ about ice, frost and wintery weather!

• Water in its liquid form is less dense than ice! 
• Water covers 71% of the earth’s surface!
• 1.7% of the planets water is in glaciers and ice caps!
• 1.7% of the earth’s water is in groundwater!
• 0.001% of our water is in air vapour, clouds and precipitation!

• 96.5% of the planets water is in the sea & oceans!
• Only 2.5% of the earth’s water is fresh!
• Less than 0.3% of the earth’s water is in rivers, lakes and the atmosphere!
• Only 2.5% of the Earth’s water is freshwater and 98.8% of that is in Ice and groundwater!
• Less than 0.3% of all freshwater is in rivers, lakes and the atmosphere!

• Ice covers 10% of the Earth’s land mass!
• Ice forms 7% of the Oceans!
• Trapped air bubbles make Ice seem cloudy!
• Water expands as it freezes and freezes from the outside in!

 

 

 

• Hot water freezes faster than cold water. We still don’t know why!
• Water does not always freeze at 0°C. It needs something for its molecules to latch onto. Ice crystals form around a nucleus such as dust. If these are not present then water can be frozen at -42 °C!
• Icebergs are born on land!
• When a piece of Ice breaks off a glacier it is called calving! And depending on its size it could be a growler, bergy bit or iceberg!

 

• You can start a fire with ice! How? Carve a piece into the shape of a lens so it acts as a magnifying glass and concentrate the sunlight on a single point!
•  A frost day is a period of 24 hours in which the minimum temperature is equal to or below 0°C!
• If the temperature remains below 0°C all day it is known as an Ice day!

 

•  The average number of Ice days per winter for much of England and Wales is 1 to 5, while Scotland records 2 to 6!
• The winter of 1962-63 recorded 17 Ice days!
• Air below 0°C is defined as Air Frost, measured at a height of 5 cm above ground!
• Hoar Frost, the fluffy deposit of minute ice crystals on grass and brickwork, occurs on calm clear nights when condensation takes place after freezing!

 

 

•  Black Frost is a thin sheet of frost without the white colour usually associated with frost!
• 1620-21: Frost Fair held on the Thames which was completely frozen!
• 1644: Late January snowfall lasted 8 days!
• 1657-58: Snow remained on the ground from December through to March!
• 1674: March snowfall lasted for 13 days!
• 1742 Ice blocks are in the Thames!
• 1930-31: February saw 2 feet of snow fall in northern England and Scotland!
