Oh boy! Vekta.5 discontinued

[Haric]

I’m hoping it’s because of this Covid bullshit that they stopped production and will resume after.

Been seeing a lot of businesses have to close up shop. My uncle used to get some ac supplies from this small outfit. He got a call about 2 weeks ago from the owner asking him if he wanted any more refrigerant at a severe discount. So my uncle asked him what was up. Wasnt deemed essential, and they lost too much revenue to stay open. They were selling off all assets and closing shop. Lots of struggling business out there.

Dang that sucks! If that’s true it’s time to stock up on parts big time before they become extremely hard to get or super expensive ??

From what i heard ddm has taken over the kraken 5? just like losi 5b
Bet best person to ask would be steve @ DDM

 

[Haric]

That’s probably what’s happening.

 

[John Parks]

Yes, DDM too over production for kraken and all the parts.

 

[misterleon]

Ddm is like my grandmother. Looking over our best interests and making sure we have whatever we need. Grandma hit me with the shoe when I stepped outta line though. Maybe Steve needs to do more of that

That's crazy. Exactly what I do and we're absolutely swamped with work. Booked into 2022 already

I've been dealing with all the back orders and or zero inventory. I hate to say the T word, but can you believe they have zero stock on their 2.5 and 3.3 nitros!??. Was doing a powerup motor exchange from an ancient 2.5r, they have zero stock
