Seen around town …
This message came from Drew Smith:
I was driving by MPC Lighting & Communication today and spotted an old military vehicle outside being worked on. I was told it's a MRAP, built around 2007 or 2008 at a cost of $648,000. It saw service in both Iraq and Afghanistan before being decommissioned recently. From what I heard, the Department of Defense has an oversupply of these vehicles, and keeping them in storage is too expensive. So, the first 12 were given to local law enforcement SWAT teams, with NIPAS being the only Illinois recipient so far. The vehicle is heavily armored, all weapons have been removed, but it still retains many useful features. One notable difference is that it runs on a 12VDC system instead of the older 24VDC used in military models. It also has a large front-mounted winch and a rear ramp with stairs. I was told that NIPAS plans to paint and letter it to match their fleet. Additionally, the federal government performed a full maintenance check and even installed new tires before handing it over.

Also, Rutland-Dundee had a new engine on site for some installations.

An electric Spray Bottle is an advanced version of a traditional spray bottle, powered by electricity or batteries. It is designed to dispense liquids such as water, cleaning solutions, or pesticides in a fine mist. The main advantage of an electric spray bottle over a manual one is that it requires less effort to use. It can continuously spray with just a press of a button, making it easier for tasks like watering plants, cleaning, or disinfecting. Some electric spray bottles also allow you to adjust the intensity of the mist according to your needs.Plastic Spray Bottles
