Inquiring minds want to know. Well, I do anyway.

Having not been to the Convention and still struggling to put names to faces to screen names I do not know who you are, guy with goatee in Nikes, shorts and a plum purple shirt.

If I figure this sequence correctly you were also running an orange bagged Royal against Evan's Filter Queen?

Please identify yourself...

so I can get in touch. Your XXX has me greatly intrigued. Now, I know how I'd go about installing a Lux power socket to accommodate a later Lux powerhose.

The setup you have there looks so right with the matching colors.
Sure looks like an Electrolux, or Miele, or even Hoover power wand and head.

Do tell, please.

I have a vacuumless blue Hoover DUROS powerwand, head & hose making eyes and potentially inappropriate advances on defenceless Electrolux XXX's...Yikes!

Nice looking serious Power Nozzle.

Are we talking off the shelf parts or custom paint job with two more turbine fan stages grafted to the motor with a shortened cloth bag. LOL

Oh, sorry, re-engineering fantasies again....

My idea of a monster vac is sleeper stealthy style.

Here's hoping you see this or a pal does so I can contact you.

Nothing against Hoover but the Hoover Duros minibag Vacuum canister itself is a pretty piece of cheap jellypod Crap. Nothing wrong with the wide headlight power nozzle and the wands & hose are neat looking. Large bore tubing sheathed in aluminum with that blue exterior power line detailing.

Yes Dave I did go against him with my 360. I did get 2 place though I was very happy and thats a domestic machine going against a commercial upright. I sitll love my 360 though.
 
Motor

It sounded like it had a different motor in it. Maybe a high powered Lamb motor? I was interested in that machine too, but never got a chance to talk with the guy.

That machine was a beast. Very modified. Kind of like putting a 350 Chevy V8 in a lawn tractor.

That was Charlie C...

From New York, Deer Park?

The cleaner was a Lux XXX with a MIELE motor, and a Simplicity hose/powernozzle.
It really was a true monster vac!
