BS! Buy a decent model, not some crappy 50 bucks version, and you'll notice no difference! Rubbish, they are all for the most part crap, regardless of cost, you almost want to spent £20 on a cheap and cheerful crap that you have to throw away every 6 months to the crap they produce today. My nans old Push you pull me Bizzel is 10 times better than the crap we get today... and no way do I think a 900w motor will be good enough for anything... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 44479563 United Kingdom 08/21/2014 12:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Anyone wanting to buy a powerful vacuum cleaner has only 10 days left to be certain of getting one - following new EU rules that come in next month. Quoting: unbeliveable 38049407 From 1 September, companies in the EU will be banned from making or importing vacuum cleaners above 1600 watts. The rules will get even tougher in three years' time. From 1 September 2017, all vacuum cleaners will have to be less than 900w. [link to www.bbc.com] WTF... sorry but no one messes with the power of suction re vacuums.... they will have us using straws next! I think i will have to brush up on vacuum mechanics and pimp out any new ones I get... LOL they will be selling them on the black market LOL... I really do despair! |

Quoting: Clarified Custard They have specialized nozzles/attachments for that if you buy quality brand vacuums! I've got the Mega Pet Fur Pro or something like that and it does a decent job. I was hoping to upgrade a bit more the next time it choked and died. |

Sungaze_At_Dawn User ID: 49897461 Canada 08/21/2014 01:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why is that a good thing. There is abundant energy, and they've been using the good clean stuff in their black ops since before ww2, (actually a lot longer and before Tesla, from Keely on). Pistol shrimps harness energy from cavitation. Why was Sweden going to replace all their gas pumps with Hydrogen, and backed down. WHY? Why can't I pull up to the pump and choose between hemp fuel, hydrogen fuel and methane, and why is our sewage, clean or treated, put in our water, not in our cars and furnaces? Back to cavitation. Nature does cavitation but we're too stupid to employ cold fusion, and keep selling the lie physics to little kids, oh and please once you learn that an all negative, invisible, weightless (and obviously non existent) electron ORBITS without smashing into it, an all positive proton magnet, well, here's your sucker little baby, and I've got some swamp land to sell you.... By the way, cold fusion is not about colliders. Its not about radioactive harmful energy and smashing things together, its about HZ, friction and causing molecules to release their energy.

Mind you, cfls are hazardous waste but i'm sure none get broken and all are disposed properly. Mmmmhmmm! Ban the oldskool lightbulbs! People still using them are terrorists! Report them to your nearest police station. :hitler: like i said the EU IS the Flying Circus. They fly from Brussels to Luxembourg and their policies are jokes. |
