The Bullet Blender™ works all over the world.

The Bullet Blender™ uses 24V DC supplied by a small external power supply that plugs into a wall outlet. Next Advance will supply the appropriate power supply for the local power and wall outlet configuration.

Speed

The Bullet Blender has 10 speeds, easily selectable from a front-panel control. This wide array of speeds allows the Bullet BlenderTM to be used for gentle vortexing, vigorous homogenization, or anything in between.

Time

The time of the run may be adjusted from 1-5 minutes. The time is easily selected from the front panel controls. Once you start the run, the Bullet Blender will automatically stop after the selected time.

Capacity

The Bullet Blender™ and Bullet Blender™ Blue can hold up to 24 microcentrifuge (1.5 to 2.0 mL) tubes. The Bullet Blender™ Blue 50 can hold up to 9 of the 50 mL BD Falcon™ brand polypropylene tubes. Other brands of 50 mL tubes may not work due to differences in height or diameter.

Use in incubators/cold rooms

The Bullet Blender™ can operate in incubators (up to 60°C) or cold rooms (down to 4°C) if the temperature is kept constant and the humidity is not excessive. Temperature swings which cause condensation will damage the electronics and void the warranty. In fact, the electronic circuitry includes additional heat sinks to ensure reliable operation at elevated temperatures.

Warranty

The Bullet Blender™ comes with a 30 day money back guarantee and a 2 year warranty. Accidents or condensation void the warranty. Next Advance is not liable for any consequential damages.

Dimensions

The Bullet Blender™ is only 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter so it uses only 8 inches (20 cm) of lab bench.
