What ultrasonic widget are you using?

I've been thinking of buying one. Can anyone recommend a
make/model/price/source?

Is this a Lidl -Aldi type cheapie if so be careful of the duty cycle
I managed to burn mine out with repeated cycles without a rest
Then i RTFM ;(
Biological washing power works well as do the other suggestions, but make
sure that the coke is really flat otherwise you come back to a very sticky
bubble bath all over the work bench.

elcheapo one from Aldi or somesuch. a friend picked it up for me. Small,
mind, it holds just over a pint of fluid. handy for small things though. I
did me watch, took about 5 or 6 goes but it successfully degunged the
expanding metal bracelet with almost no effort.

tried the tea strainer, with mixed results. got to find out what fluid
dissolves tannin. coke might...
