Hi Guys, Going to finally re-motor the CS tomorrow with the EXL motor mount. My question is Amps and draw on my breakers in my 1952 home. It looks like the Lamb 119800 around 11.2 amps will be ok to pair with the power nozzle of 1.2 amps. My preference is to stick with Electro Motor as they...

Hi Guys, Found a new CS on Marketplace for $60.00 so I bought it. Put the 6500-293/Aerus 45350/Tristar 70204 in it or the Ametek 115293? Personally i like the Ametek and I can get a 70205 EXL motor mount. The Johnson is fine in it and the tank is spotless when you wipe with a white cloth...

Hi Guys, A little time last couple of days for some spring cleaning. I had not used the Rainbow SRX for a long time and decided to put the updated separator in my machine. While they look similar there are differences and in my machine the noise reduction and overall sound of the machine are...

Hi, The cover and elbow kit to replace T1078 locking mechanism on the SRX PN3 nozzle is now avail. This update removes the lever lock on the power nozzle and replaces it with the PN12 style of the E2 Black that is less troublesome for those interested. Brian

Hey Guys, Figured I would take a few minutes and share some thoughts on the SRX. First its a nice vacuum that needs a bigger motor. Compared to the E2B, the loss in water lift 80 on the E2B and 60 on the SRX is noticeable. I like the quality of the machine, especially the hose connection...

Here is the Red Intelligence I was talking about in a previous thread. It is listed on Ebay.De and there is also a white and bluish purple color scheme as well. Brian

Sorry I forgot the 10' hose images. Both are Plastiflex-made and the braided variety is about 12" longer than standard Aerus and both are conical like a Silverado hose was. The faux braided hose is like a Riccar hose with a braided cover over it and has strain reliefs. The accessories are...

As promised here are some pics of the Euro setup I changed over to about a year ago. Significant performance upgrade over stock Wal-Mart wands and elbow that ships with this unit.

Hi, Having lunch with an old friend today who just happened to upgrade a customer from an worn out Riccar into a new Lux Legacy. I was surprised to see a new cord material that was much more flexible and rubber-like than the previous Unicable cords they were using. Also noticed a...

Hi, I have a Riccar Impeccable purple canister vacuum used a couple times with original packagaing and all attachments, including the Riccar compact electric petite power nozzle, all attachments (bags) including full size Riccar power nozzle with chrome roller. Pictures avail if interested and...

Hi Guys, Interesting to see the Aerus Fresh Era has been replaced with a Tacony 9 pound vacuum and it looks pretty nice. It would have been great to see the metal brush roller assy. but the wood roller is good as well. Definitely a step in the right direction adding the best light weight...

Hey Guys, There is a new Kirby Heritage in the appliance section of Craigslist Maine if anyone is interested. I think he is looking for five bills. Machine is located in Fairfield. Brian

Hi Guys, A couple weeks ago I pulled out the Platinum for a quick touch up (third use) which was subsequently involved in a crash that left me with a dent in the front cover of the machine. Happened to be playing with the German Shorthair when she came around flying around the corner in the...

Hi All, I was at the fair this morning chewing the fat with some of the lux guys I used to work with. The going rate on the Lux Platinum is $2499.99 and the Fresh Era lightweight upright is running between $800-$900 (just outrageous) though discounted at the fair a bit. It is interesting to...

I am looking to sell my Lux Platinum serial S00416C with less than 10 hours of use with NO scratches, dings or dents/dirt anywhere. All attachments included. I purchased this to demo to see if I wanted to go back to Lux where I worked part time for 12 years. The evaluation period is over and...

Hey Guys, I have had a guy bugging me to procure his very slightly used Rainbow E2 Black machine for a few days. Went over last night and it turns out it was new in May and has the side-drive nozzle and pooer also. Used about three times by a nice young couple in a double-wide. Made me an...

Hey Guys, I was in the "Granite State" this afternoon and had a chance to see the newest Rainbow. A very interesting machine for sure. This one was quieter than those I have seen in the past.The quality is very good and I like the materials the unit is made of. The new power nozzle looks...

If any of you guys have a NEW Electrolux green power nozzle brush roller you would like to part with e-mail me or call 207-402-5020. Brian

Anyone know where the pic went with the top cover of the Lux PB-1 power nozzle removed? It seems like this was a recent post. Brian
