Could this mean the end of ultrasonic cleaners as we know them?

Came across an interesting if not skeptical piece (it usually is from indiegogo) .

Looks like all you need is a container.

Can't find any spec though.

Thoughts?

Or the beginning!

Heck no!  This IS just the beginning:)  I can see it now, use ANY container and just throw a little tablet device in there....so cool!

[HorologicalHobby]

Truely interesting! I'd love to throw one in the bottom of my cleaning machine and make it ultrasonic!

That said, watch cleaning machines normally cycle through different frequencies, because that goes from large part cleaning to small part cleaning, so you'd need one specialized. But, totally doable!

That sounds really cool.  I do wonder if it would work on watch parts.

I use an old electric toothbrush without the brush. I dip the tip in a stainless steel container with degreaser and the vibration does the rest. The idea is similar to this.

Well tickle me fancy... That electric toothbrush idea sounds ingenious. How did you come up with that? But isn't lighter fluid the correct solution to use or something like that?

Which sort of tooth brush?? Normal or Sonic??

That's cool. I suppose you're using water based degreasers, I think solvents would melt the plastic toothbrush. No?
