My ebay order from MV arived today, so when I got back from swimming I got to work and made the MK1.





The tool holder is a bit of a lose fit in the dc16, a bit of foam or a rubber o ring should sort that out, and the dc07 tube needs a good clean, but It works extremely well.

I have a new ebay toy  ;)

IMG_20160331_145422 by Madrat, on Flickr

£15, brush works, charger is knackered (not sure about battery yet)  So I am after another dc16 charger  :grinn:  getting like hens teeth, a car charger will do.  UK chargers are labelled as 100 - 250 v so is a US charger the same? Cant even find a 28 volt charger listed on ebay, loads of 24 volt  :D  Top seal for the bin is a bit past it's best as well.  Can anyone help  :grinn:

I've never seen a 28V car before, only 12 and 24 lol.
What part of the charger is broken? Couldn't you make one up?

Probably a dead cap in there. I've had to hack open many a (non-vacuum cleaner) wall charger to fix them.

I'm sure you can either fix that one or attach another adapter to the wire.
I've done that before.
