I had cheap TTI hoover foldaway put on a lovely fireworks display today. i did leave it plugged in for longer than i should Boy did stink up the place.
No but maybe i should plug her back in on new years
I always found Ametek motors to last longer than YDKs as well, never really see the DC04 silver/lime blown up, but seen more clutched YDK ones with burnt out motorsDC01 Ameteks and DC03 motors are built like tanks they never seem to die
