Just to put some closure to the thread, I picked up one of the ones Chilero did at Harbor Freight today, $79.99 on sale for $59.99 plus a 20% off coupon...out the door for $51 and change after tax.

Dropped in one of the V GT Luxe RDs I picked up this week, one that I had cleaned to the best of my ability. I ued Dawn, warm water, and a little JetDry as a surfactant as suggested earlier in the thread. Turned it on and nearly immediately gunk started to come out of pivot points and such. I'm very impressed with it's ability to drive gunk out of impossible to reach places. Honestly, this thing will totally change how I rehab a bike. I used to clean and scrub...now, I'll clean all surface dirt easily accessible and let the ultrasonic to the rest. All my own parts/bikes will get the treatment too when I do winter teardowns.

Anyway...if you're a stickler for clean parts...this is for you.
