Quick Learner
I need two channel balancers and the metal part of the balance measures 33 1/2 inches in the windows probably 16 to 20 pounds

We can supply this balance, but before I can make a suggestion I will need to see a clear picture of the metal clip at the end of the cord. I will also need to know how many balances you wanted to buy altogether.

Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the clip, it has been lost, but it is just the normal looking clip that are used. I need two but depending on the price I might get four?

I'm afraid that we can't proceed without that clip. There are about six different styles, all of which look more or less like a standard hook but none of which are interchangeable. I know it seems like a small detail, but it's very important. If we don't get you the right type then the balance won't install in the window properly and will probably pop right out of place.

Do you have an identical window in the house that may still have all its hardware intact?

Perfect, thank you! I will email you a purchase link and price quote right now for four of these balances. 

Just one last thing you might want to triple check: according to the manufacturer, a stamp of "33-4" indicates a metal channel length of 33-5/8", not 33-1/2". I feel pretty sure that's the size you really have but it can't hurt to check, just in case.

Lastly, the balance we'll be sending you will have little tabs on either side of the bottom nylon fitting. It will still work exactly the same as the original, though, so don't worry. I just didn't want you to be surprised when you opened the box.
