Originally the Melrose Power
Station, invented by Joseph and
Max Berlin in 1981. The name was changed to Powerceptor so that it could
Trademark the name (Power Station could not be Trademarked since it was made up
of 2 common words). Soon thereafter several clones appeared, and one of
them even used the name Power Station...but the competition was no
competition.
POWERCEPTOR��S ARE SO UNIQUE, U.S. PATENTS D313,394 AND
U.S. PATENT D353,576 WERE GRANTED TO PROTECT THE DESIGN. IN ORDER TO AVOID PATENT INFRINGEMENT, THE COMPETITION
INTRODUCED IMITATIONS THAT ARE UNCONVENTIONALLY AND DISADVANTAGEOUSLY DIFFERENT.
POWERCEPTOR�
Each are equipped with heavy duty air line disconnect
couplers and connectors at no extra charge.
COMPETITION
Must
be purchased as an extra, the cost of which needs to be taken into
consideration.
POWERCEPTOR�
FRL is located near the bottom of the Powerceptor�,
a safe distance away ( 10�) from the electric outlets.
To avoid patent infringement each are located within 1 inch
of the electric outlets, clearly a potential hazard.
POWERCEPTOR�
Each have a full size, easily adjustable separate air
regulator to simplify changing torque of impact wrenches to vehicle
manufacturer�s specifications.
COMPETITION
Units are made with
less efficient less costly
mini combination air regulator/moisture separator, with
no reference to filtration capability.
