A 12 amp power stick is probably quite different, although they might have sourced the motor through a division of Ametek. The most powerful version of the PN motor I have seen is in my 3.5 amp Dirt Devil Broom Vac.
Belts and cones should be easy to find. PN parts might be quite hard and you might almost need to find a parts donor from someone who has a PN of that type with a different problem.
Spin during startup is based on many factors and can't be a good determination of a cleaners power. I think it has to do with torque, inertia, mass, and accelerations. Many variables which makes for a difficult comparison between units.
I have one of the brown PNs and the top is plastic. I think it is an ok design. I think it gets the job done and thats about it, but I have never really had a chance to use it for any real length of time.
