Electronic chain oiler for a tenner

[stevierst]

the flow line control etc.are you able to shut off or is it a continuous flow.
if thats the case would it not saturates the whole back end in oil.
if you turn the flow off this would burnt out the little pump ?
good idea nevertheless still would prefer a switch off etc.

Mine is just gravity/capillary action, and the solenoid closes with the ignition off, so it’s under no pressure and won’t burn out. With the feed nozzle being a scottoiler one with narrow diameter, and the hydraulic lock when the ignition is off, no oil leaks out at all when you don’t want it to. It’s simple and works incredibly well. No need for pumps or adjustable electronics imho, just more to go wrong, however I love their ingenuity! It’s the keep it simple principle which seems to work with most things, especially when I get my hands on em ?
