More Airflow Tests Part II

One more for now

I'll have to get my stuff out and do my metal Royal prince vac too. I figured I should get this posted as this machine is going to the thrift store. It's just....annoying sounding, and the hose is nearly useless.

A few things.

Running off old notes can be a problem. After suction testing this machine I was very confused as to how it could surpass the higher amp dirt devils. I'm going to guess the 6 I got from the 103 was a nozzle suction number re-testing both dirt Devils the 103 scored 14" and the 3 amp M08100 scored 20"

As for the difference. Well, compared to the 103, it's metal, the exhaust airpath is much more open, it's rated for 1.8 amps vs 2, the bags are an open mouth design, I think the cord is longer but I can't be bothered to measure it, the baseplate removes without tools the 103 has two screws, the fan design appears to be different.

Now on the testing portion I was thrown off that the hose airflow surpassed the nozzle airflow, I tested the nozzle multiple times and attempted to rebuild the brushroll in hopes that it would raise it's number The highest I could get with the brushroll on was 1634 FPM, I tried taking the belt off and it went up to 1830 FPM The hose was an even 1800 FPM, I don't really know what to make of that but *shrugs* it is what it is.
