Thanks for the quick response re. the PD...I was unable to access the site for a while due to computer issues 
You were right, the power supply was not bad, it was the end piece...I have another power supply I am using now as a temporary replacement.
also, followed the suggestion using a screwdriver and the rattling noise stopped; great!
I appreciate the tips offered. Have a nice day.

Can you describe the suggestion regarding using a screwdriver to stop the rattling noise? Thanks.Soulmaster420 said:Thanks for the quick response re. the PD...I was unable to access the site for a while due to computer issues

The retaining clip that sits at the top of the heat exchanger can be reseated easily with a flat bladed screwdriver.
If the unit is dropped (and hits head down) the 100 gram mass of the heat exchanger can slightly dislodge the clip from it's position. The top disk is sandwiched between the clip and the inner SS sleeve.
Set the PD on a solid surface and place the flat blade on the clip. Give it a tap and move around the clip, repeat tapping it back in place. Shouldn't take much effort and it will be back like new.
Yes we have made Red Oak PDs and they worked well, but the Oak was sent to us for a custom unit, we do not stock Oak.
Nice shots of your PD Devo, thanks for permission to use one on our site.

No problemo.... you should have a page on your site of all the pictures of PDs from around the world that you have collected...Purple-Days said:The retaining clip that sits at the top of the heat exchanger can be reseated easily with a flat bladed screwdriver.

Excellent idea guys. 
Never thought of it. Actually making the Customer Photo Page now. I'll gather up a couple more pics to fill out the page. Then get back here with the URL.

I wanted special permission on that deck shot of Devo's cause I am using it in other places on our site.
Josh I'm gonna use that angled picture, it's pretty damn cool. Gonna gather a few other favorite customer shoots. Quite a few on this forum I think.

so, From France, I give you these posted pictures Tom; hope you'll like them. It was in a post I made back from holidays, it is #346 in the "picture thread" :Purple-Days said:Excellent idea guys.
stopping by a little moment to give you some fresh french "PD is on vacation again" news
I took my PD with me for holidays... one week in august, in a remote mountainous part of the country, in an old country house. I could take these pictures of my PD everyday life when on holidays.
sitting in the old fireplace at night
and when sun came up ... going down the stairs
to get back to this very special spot to get this view on the valley.
letting the od fellow rock warming up with the sun; resting here all day and relax.
I'll post more of it later.... if available

Thanks Ben, I love the PD on vacation theme.
Devo, Cocobolo is too dense for a PD, very pretty though. That piece became a pencil holder.
All three dark units under the Custom PDs section are Walnut. Sold to me as 'figured', but some like these few were obviously way beyond that... Very few of those pieces in the stack and I think 'all gone' to some very nice customers. The rest of the 'figured walnut' has figure like the maple (the light wood picture), a tiger stripe effect, very nice. Also some plain-jane walnut in the group but that is sold as 'plain black walnut'
I think this is the one you like
and just added this one, also Walnut.
Any pictures of PDs? Send them in or post here. I may not be able to use them all on our site, but would love to see some of the PDs I never got to appreciate. Fun stuff comparing all the variety. PD on Vaca... PD Vapor Path... etc. be creative if you feel like it. And thanks to all the contributors.

Funny PD vacation pictures. I was waiting for it to be wearing a little bathing suit or top hat or something.
I close on my house on Monday (unless it gets pushed back AGAIN due to errors and missing paper-work). I have been thinking for weeks sometime after I move in i'll take some PD pictures. I want Where Is PD pics kind of like Where Is Waldo books I read as a kid. Sounds fun to me, but with all the work related to moving and renovating it might be a while before i get around to doing it. But everyone always ooohhh's and ahhhh's over PD pics, so I know I just can't go wrong.

OMG The PD is georgeous in that figured walnut.

Hey does anyone have any idea how long a pd can run off of a car battery without running the car? I want to take it car camping, but dont want to have to keep running the truck to keep it charged. I've left it in there for a couple of hours at a time with no prob, but wonder how long I could get away with leaving it in before I wouldnt be able to start the truck.
I've taken the extreme before, and it worked great cause it only ran when we were using it. I want to take the PD and SSV this time, but am worried about discharging the battery too much.
