Software
Easy Jobber is creating a sense of relaxation for jobbers all over the country. It is a hard task to keep up with 10 stores, but imagine if you had 100. Three main concerns for jobbers and their staff are: time consumed in daily reports, inaccurate data and lack of consistent communication. In an industry that still relies on daily faxes and phone calls, human error is common, and dishonest reporting can be easily overlooked. Easy Jobber offers a one-stop solution for sending and receiving reports, data and information. The online software allows jobbers to simultaneously communicate with and collect data from five or 500 stores with a simple log-in. A free 30-day trial of Easy Jobber is available online.

Gas monitors
RAE Systems Inc. introduces the ToxiRAE 3 family of single-gas monitors and the AutoRAE Lite bump test and calibration station. ToxiRAE 3 features a stainless-steel front cover to withstand harsh environments and is currently available in three models: hydrogen sulfide and high- and low-range carbon monoxide. All ToxiRAE 3 monitors have end-user configurable operating modes as "operating days remaining" or "gas concentration" display mode. The detectors feature multi-phase alarms for short-term exposure limit, time weighted average exposure and high/low alarms. The AutoRAE Lite bump test and calibration station is small enough to be installed where needed, even vehicle mounted, and provides a fast, 12-second bump test or a full calibration in two minutes.

Pipe and cable locator
Improvements have been made to the Pipehorn 800 Series high-frequency pipe and cable locator by Utility Tool Company Inc. The Pipehorn 800 Series features the same high frequency (480 kHz) performance as the Classic Pipehorn. It works on the toughest conductors: cast iron, un-energized power (street lights), tracer tapes and worn-out tracer wires, short side services and fiber, and it sweeps areas for unmarked utilities. New simultaneous conductive transmission of high (480 kHz) and low (9 kHz) frequencies provides better performance in congested underground areas. A new fast-response signal strength meter and sharp audio tone combine for precise pinpointing in all conditions. The transmitter features a new all-weather/high impact ABS housing. Audio tones indicate "transmitter on," battery strength and good connection. The Pipehorn comes in a new lightweight, space-saving carry bag.
