I Tested my jerry-rigged ETM today- 100 ft hose run.
Impressed with Hg but not CFM and dry time. But I didn't spend much time with extraction passes.
I need to do more testing--
but I'm thinking about sending a letter to CARB and The Governor explaining WHY their upcoming ban on small engines is bad for the environment when it comes to carpet cleaning.

My jerry-rigged ETM vacuum system was an air hog booster (one 3 stage vac) in series with an M-5 (two 3 stages in parallel).
Add a generator, and my earing will be destroyed faster than @Mikey P Vortex. (I never ran my V at the RPM recommended by Shawn York)

All this is making me feel like a Broke dick CC :dejection:-- I'm just trying to do what the govt wants and go all-electric.
Did I mention that the 'Lab coat" guy is designing a "Tesla TM" and I might do the same?

Your 370 will run cleaner than your generator most likely.

really Marty, you dont know that mytee products are garbage?


either you're a liar or just real f'n

my first portable was called A Bumblebee….exclusively made for a local company here….it was a Mytee disguised in yellow and black. That thing kicked ass vacuum and the heat was pretty decent for a portable….150 psi. sold it when I got a tm. Til this day regret selling it. Hands down the best portable….light weight as well.
miss my ole friend 😢😢

I have lots of stories about fires in customers" homes caused by malfunctioning equipment.

The worst one:

A guy in Colorado was dry cleaning furniture with a flammable blend of products, his machine fire caught the furniture on fire, and he had to jump out of a window. His customer was elderly and didn't make it out.:(

Oh and we sold some of those Bumblebee units way back when....

Actually I was fortunate Diana was with me that day. She noticed it before me of course, unplugged it and rolled it out before I knew what happened. It smoked up the house pretty good, but we were able to blow it out.
I think the story is somewhere in the middle of her book😬

From Tag’s site?
Did Mikey approve you to go to that site?

yes. Avast always alerts.


I did a virustotal that came up clean today but the last one wasn't

could be false positives but since other folks sell the same stuff no reason for me to chance it....ymmv

to be more specific it attempts a connection to the skimmer domain "iofrontcloud"




verified from different PCs including my wife's office to rule out local infection of some type

iofrontcloud virustotal results




you guys can let Taf know.....it's been like this for a loooooong time



used to come up as having "cardstealer" but now just "mal:url" in reference to this url.
I don't know if it is functional.....just that the script is there, malware programs alert to it, and the url is associated with card skimming

for genpop this means at some point the site has been compromised and now when you go to the site it tries to load a script (lu.js) from another site (iofrontcloud) in the background intended to steal info


the good news is the virus/malware programs I checked all blocked it so it's unlikely your info was compromised by this at least since it was added to protection databases
