    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Anybody try these yet? They look good and should be quite a bit lighter than their regular racks. Since I am getting back into BP's, I just ordered one this morning. Price was right for me for a 6/12 hole rack with heat. I'll post a follow up when it gets here.

With this open sided design, wouldn't it be easier to create a photoperiod for your breeder animals?? :thumbsup:

Just wondering, because I'm planning on buying a rack this spring as well.
 
Rack just came in. It took under one hour to put all together. It's nice and sturdy yet light weight. It's made of the same material as the rest of their products so there was no skimping there. I personally like this design over their regular racks that I have seen. I will definitely be getting more in the future.

They have been holding heat very well.
 
Conrats on the new rack. :D

AP makes some great racks.
I recently picked up a 10/20 rack with their new rounded corner design.
These racks are well worth the money and the first thing I have ever bought where the holes ACTUALLY match up when you are putting it together.
 
They look good, Is there a web site where you can look at other rack systems they have.

They do jut as well as any other rack. It will be dependent on how many holes you put in your tubs.

That I don't know. I believe their site only has the one. I would give them a call and ask.
 
They will customize for you.

They did my 10 slot the way I asked which isn't listed on their site.

No they don't infact if you want flexwatt you have to buy it as they don't provide that but they reduce the price $25 I think.

They have flex watt. I had mine built with it. They installed and wired it for me.
