I bought the Rhino Pro 5000 and never could get it to make good heat-shrink labels. Spent a lot of $ on labels too, some of which were too wide to use on this labeler

PM or email me if you're interested in buying it . I'll sell it for a very good price.

...model with the hard case at $52.

Makes the kit with the case cheaper than the labeler on its own ($69).

Unfortunately, the heat shrink tubes are not on sale...

The link is for the 3000 (not 5000). Is there much of a difference?

Edit... Duh, I just saw the title on Gil's post above.

Default I think 3000 almost = 5000

awesome deal! I think it's the same as the 5000 but can't print 3/4" wide labels.

I just bought one, and they sent me a notice that they shipped within 2.5 hours of when I placed the order!

Default BradyID

We use a Brady IdExpert and a Targus 200 at work. We get high quality, but use bazillions of them. Labels at both ends are required as far as I am concerned. In aircraft, I'd be inclined to put additional labels periodically in longer runs.

For what it's worth....

Default Can anyone help me out?

Hi team,
I am interested in purchasing the RhinoPro 3000 on sale at Labelcity as per the link above. From their website it appears they do not ship to New Zealand and my email enquiry regarding this has gone unanswered.

What I'm looking for is someone who would be kind enough to let me have it shipped to them (in the US) and then take it to the post office and send it to me. I will pay all incurred costs upfront via Paypal.

Interestingly, this is the first supplier I have found so far that won't ship to me in New Zealand. Everyone else - in particular the big 'RV friendly' tool suppliers has been most helpful.

Thanks in advance,

How do you guys label the small diameter wires? The smallest Rhino 1/4 heat shrink tubing, with it's 3:1 shrink ratio, won't shrink enough for the 22awg 0.050", 20awg 0.060".

Should I have to remake all my electric system, I will use short pieces of white shrink tube and then write by hand directly on it. Very quick and effective.
