specs?


Resurrecting this thread to ask if anyone has specs for the Tristar EXL.  Things like airflow, noise level, and weight.


Blackheart said: "The new CS, which uses a brushless motor, is supposed to have about 42 cfm so it's very comparable to the EXl's flow."


This makes me think the EXL pulls around 42 CFM, which is extremely weak compared to the modern canister and backpack vacuums I have been looking at, which claim 100-150 CFM.  And yet the EXL and CS are praised here for their airflow.  Am I missing something?


This also makes me think there are specs for the CS and EXL available somewhere, but the closest thing I could find when searching was this thread!  I would really like to be able to compare the EXL to the other vacuums I am considering.


Some background: I'm looking at canisters which have a long 10-12 ft hose.  Tristar makes a 12 ft hose which is compatible with the EXL and MG, but not the CS.
