I think Panasonic makes those floor brushes for Centec, along with Hayden, Kenmore and several others. The same head was sold with Panasonic branded vacuums. Mine is made in Mexico. Outer skins vary a little but underneath everything is the same. They are identical underneath to a couple of decades of the Kenmore Powermate.

So the low voltage lines operate a relay that switches the vacuum motor on and off and there is a separate circuit that I take it is always hot to power the floor brush? Hmmm. No way to adapt that to a canister vacuum. Bummer. I was looking for ways to make hoses for my old straight hose Kenmore canister vacs but this isn't going to be the solution.
 
Devin, I don't know about all of Canada, but I can say they are rare here in Ontario. The only Royal Metal upright I have ever found in person is my 670CA commercial model, & I know of 1 vac shop in London, Ontario that is selling a late 90's model with the Chinese motor. There's also a vac shop in London called McHardy Vacuum that sells new Royal Metal commercial uprights. But everywhere I have called looking around, most say they haven't seen one on their bench in over 20 years. So yeah, that would make them kinda rare LOL.

Well...

The royal uses an attachment system similar to older Filter queens (attachments or wands fit inside the hose end) so i cannot attach it to the central vac hose.
 
Just an FYI

Due to an accident at work i'm unable to effectively use one of my hands for about the next week, which would make packaging very difficult or impossible. I will be unable to package any items until late next week.

The following vacuums are already sold and shipped
NSS PIG
Numatic Henry
Electrolux Olympia
Patriot Nozzle

The tristar CXL and lux upright (awaiting reply) are currently spoken for.
