Mark, It's The Superior Shoes That Grant Testing super powers. All hail New Balance! Let the shoe Kowtowing begin.

VacLab Response Part 2 2)Vacuum Wars Erroneous Testing Unfortunately Vacuum Wars does not know how to perform proper scientific testing and he has posted many hilarious results showing near and well over 100% pickup. I have posted many rebuttal videos but ALL testers need to specifically watch...

6 Pairs of New Balance Shoes Here in the Lab VacLab Response Part 1 In 1982, I took my first advanced placement (re: College level) Physics course as a junior in High School. Many years later I submitted term papers and received an “A” in a graduate level (i.e. 500 level) Physics/M.E. lab...

Or your daily driver, etc., wasn't very good. Say for example, you obtained measurable proof that your longtime "go-to" machine actually performed no better than average (or possibly worse) in your home. 1) Would you care? 2) Would you change to a better machine? Twice a week, I grab a vacuum...

Overheating At Low Speeds Is A Myth Think of continuously variable speed canisters (or uprights). Some users run them on low speed for hours with no issues year after year. Generally speaking, a properly working electric motor generates less heat at less RPM so it should even last longer...

NYC Distributors Hershel, Via Kirby's website I found 2 Bronx and 1 Queens dealers. Not that far away from Brooklyn. Bill

I'm Sure In-Home Sales Have Been Decimated For the time being and some companies might go under. As far as a redesign, Kirby would have to be careful not to foul up the top performer that already exists. Remember the Porsche 911, Chevy Camaro/Corvette, and Ford Mustang? With some exceptions...

Les, You Obviously Can't Read And YOU even gave Ted positive feedback on the first video. From the description section of the first video: "First attempt at upgrading classic Kirbys to the newer HEPA filtration standard. NOTE: This item is being developed by "Ted" in California and is not...

Les, once again you have quite a faulty memory "Vaclabs did s video presenting the idea. I was made aware of this. I asked bill politely to not pursue it further." Les, you are wrong on multiple counts and I have your emails (and one other person's) to prove it. 1) "Vaclabs did s video...

Edgar, Both Of My H2L's Headlights Drove Me Nuts Until I had the chance to completely refurbish them and tightened up the headlight connections. In the past, the light might flicker for a few seconds then stop and return 10 minutes later. Anyhow, both are fixed now and I've run both for...

Alex, Now I Know Why You Act The Way You Do You are a conspiracy theorist and believe that the government is out to to get you. This isn't China. You really believe that the CDC and the FDA are lying and any info not approved by you, an uneducated high school graduate (did you even graduate?)...

I've Particle Tested Three Type C Bags 0.3 um Results: DVC 4-Ply Paper = 8400, V.A.C. HEPA = 1650, Perfect HEPA = 370 So the 4-ply paper is relatively lousy and the best is the "Perfect" brand HEPA. BTW, if you filter the exhaust (I've tried), you may manage to reduce the non-toxic carbon...

Here's Some Links And Info For Inquiring Minds https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/personal-protective-equipment-infection-control/n95-respirators-and-surgical-masks-face-masks "The 'N95' designation means that when subjected to careful testing, the respirator blocks at least 95 percent of very...

Take A Look And Tell Me What You See Rob, I don't see anything in the below videos to indicate something unusual, especially with the "lost cause" video. Can you tell if parts were upgraded? Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80 (Bill's Lost Cause) Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80 Teardown And Bathtime These...

I've Tested Two D80's And Here's My Numbers The first one was a wreck (never rebuilt), but still pulled around 5.0 Amps, fan only, no brushroll or light bulb. The second one Kirby rebuilt in 1990 and I refurbed in 2018. Motor Speed = 11,152 RPM (BR Spinning) 4.8 Amps, Low Speed, BR ON, Bulb...

Mmmmmm, "Got a D50 or D80 with a bad motor and want more horsepower and speed?" My fully refurbished D80 tests at 125 nozzle CFM, which means a CFM density of 5.61 CFM per square inch, which is extremely high. So high that pushing effort is unrealistic on medium pile or higher/thicker carpets...

Here Are Some Real World Figures Since we never have "unlimited" current to prop up the voltage under an increasing load, the voltage will drop. Said another way, since we never have unlimited suction, the CFM will drop under an increasing load. Take a real long look at this actual motor...

Mark, I Can See You Aren't Familiar With Ohm's Law You said: In a vacuum cleaner the voltage can be seen as the suction, the current as the airflow and the carpet is the resistance.So low suction (voltage) will mean a low airflow (current) through a given resistance ie the carpet. Proven by...

Wow, Alex You Don't Even Have A Basic Understanding Of Electricity or power formulas at all. Quite shocking really. Try learning E=IR and P=IE and their variants. ================================== But it's possible to have a motor produce multiple horsepowers without it consuming more...

Alex, You Perform No Quantified Testing And Promote False testing methodologies like "working water lift". You have no scientific/repeatable results that I know of. I debunked working water lift in thread a while back. No one uses it except you and it doesn't prove anything at all. A Kirby DS80...
