Need convincing that OP/ VLM works?

[Nate The Great]

Has anyone tried the new battery powered Vibe? I might get one just to play with. That would give me 2 Orbots and 2 TOPS, and 1 Cimex.

Why didn't I think of strapping a solar generator to my pad machine? It's only 1/2 the size and weight of my machine!

He is probably the inventor of this tricked-out race car!

How can I hook up this turbocharger to my OP machine?

It seems a bit extra but I suppose it would at least be worth trying in a situation where the core would be a pita…f you happen to have an electric generator laying around

 

[Ever-Fresh]

I could say that this is innovative, but Tesla owners have beat him to it!

Not a bad idea, but why strap it to the machine when you could just run a cord like every other generator?

Because he is trying to avoid using the cord around all the gym equipment

This is my solar generator setup. It might be too heavy to strap onto a jiggler.

I’d like to see one on the Raptor.. More head weight = more clean……..!

 

[Kenny Hayes]

That ranks up there cleaning the Bane Clene way And I like it! Rig it baby!

 

[Mikey P]

Are you fellas aware that Orbital equipment is categorized separately than Oscillating in the Janitorial world?

 

[Kenny Hayes]

No

It’s true. You know, putting some pressure on a scrub pad when cleaning a nasty frying pan? More pressure the better.

Good thing that I'm not a janitor!

 

[Ever-Fresh]

In some cases. The potential for fiber damage escalates as contact pressure is increased. I remember when some machines had add-on weights, usually for VCT stripping.

I’m underwhelmingly bewildered by which he speaks

I’m not talking about that level of head weight. The Obot without weights has 38 pounds of head weight on a 15 or 16 inch driver. That’s less head weight per square inch than an Oreck Orbiter.

Orbot doesn’t recommend the weights on carpet because they use pretty weak motors.

I've cleaned hundreds of thousands of Sqft of CDL with the Vibe without weights and with weights. The motor is anything but weak. Not sure why you are stuck on that. Maybe you got a bad one. Or are you trying to ride it like a Lark Scooter?

Not weak on commercial.

Ok, well padding encap in residential is too risky to cause blooming and other damage.

Yep, with a 3/8 machine like the Orbot.

no rust to be seen on mine

Maybe mine was pulled from a sunken sea container. And whats with the redneck upside down lock nuts.

Used it today to clean an upstairs unit. Going to treat the rusty stuff with wd40 to keep it from getting worse.

 

[hogjowl]

Now Damon … you KNOW he’s going to say that you left it out in the rain.

Maybe I should wear a lab coat.

 

[FredC]

At least they are stainless (?)...

 

[Meter Maid]

It does suck that the hardware gets rusty. I just spruce it up with some WD-40 every few months.

Can you say "Made in China" ?
