The motors are the same dimensions.

By "humming" do you mean the famous DC07 Dyson motor howl?

I have just read a pre copy of Angus Black's new DC07 workshop manual and he covers this in there. I dunno if I should tell the trade secret.

We put the buggers up for sale and promptly sold them all.

We are waiting on another [bigger] box coming hopefully this week. Damn DPD couriers have erroneously returned another box to sender too - hence why we ran out.

That's a pretty cool tip eh?

We share most info here - but that one, in light of the book launch, was one little trade secret I was a bit cautious about revealing in public so as not to steal any of Angus's thunder.
