You're free to your opinion on things man. I won't argue with you because there's no point. I'm going to continue to do this the way I do because it makes sense to me. I can see what you're getting at but your measurements seems too low to me. I don't consider my measurements an absolute but...

Yeah the canisters are a different story, I've tested the Aria, an HF6 with the newer motor and they do fine. But the uprights are just lacking. They've had those same specs of 90" and 103 CFM for a litttle while now I even have one of the newer white/red healthcare pros but I just still think...

I have a love/hate relationship with Lindhaus uprights. They are well built, quiet, filter well and have excellent power nozzles. My gripe about them is their suction motors. They just don't have a lot of power IMO. I still think they work pretty well due to the nozzle but I can't help but feel...

Very nice! Not only did you add the disposable bag option but you also did it with better bags, most of the Gs i've seen are super cheap paper.

Unsure about the bag's thickness but they added a muffler to the filltube. And they did....something with the cooling air exhaust too.

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4441198 Funny, I just recently got a 725 too and I just found this treasure trove of 3d parts. I cannot help but wonder if this was the work of BetaM64?

There's a fair amount of cordless uprights out there now but if we look at things like that new hoover, the tornado strike and the makita uprights you'll see that all of them have a pretty short simple airpath as opposed to the R27 which goes unchanged.

I don't think the design of the R25/27 is quite right for a battery system. Since battery motors aren't as powerful that longer airpath is going to really cut down it's performance, at this point it's best to have a short more direct airpath. I think they should have given it a new lid and...

Well at least two of the CXL/DXLs I've had over the years did have the 116884 motors in them, my current DXL has it.

Regarding numatic. I've had a few of them, only the older grey backpack I had used a panasonic motor. The newer Blue/black RSV130 used an italian ametek. There's the cordless backpack too. I've never needed to open it up but I've heard they use a cinderson brushless motor. The 2 older canisters...

Well that a part of the problem the available ones are ebay finds so I can't really compare them side by side to find out. It was a single fan. Yes I know, I've done a few of them.

Bought a Kenmore upright which has a burnt out/burning out Field coil and I've not found another motor with exactly the same code on it and I wanted to check, are the letters at the back just a production date code or something? I have found a few UDS1201's with other letters behind it and I'm...

Hmm....The most common motor bearings i've seen are 608 which are 8mm inner diameter, 22mm outer diameter, and 7mm width. Do yours have a rubber seal on them? When I can't read the numbers i'll wipe the seals off and then use my phone to zoom in on the text on them. But if that fails and I don't...

I've not found a substitute that would work for it. If memory serves the Royal J bag had the same outer collar size but the inlet was larger. Not that they make a Hepa J bag either..... I had a metro but ultimately let go of it. Having that 115923 motor in it it always felt like it should be a...
