Recoil owners!&nbsp; </DIV><DIV>&nbsp;A while back Locko called me and we had a great discussion. He is smart</DIV><DIV>and knows a lot about portables . It has become an obsession for him.</DIV><DIV>Particularly when it comes to vacuum. He likes his Recoil but just wants</DIV><DIV>to put in different vacuum motors and make a few minor changes.&nbsp; I have</DIV><DIV>decided to leave mine the way it came which impressed my son and my wife</DIV><DIV>who used to be my partner in our carpet cleaning as well as our retail</DIV><DIV>distributorship. She felt that this is the best one yet! I considered putting</DIV><DIV>the same 3 stages that are in the Mytee M5 but decided&nbsp; not to ge that</DIV><DIV>route. I know they are powerful and I also know they are very loud! So</DIV><DIV>I will use the stock vacuum motors which are quite powerful when used</DIV><DIV>together . I have used on my previous Recoil 3HP which had a different </DIV><DIV>primary vac motor on the same cord as the pumptec. The new one</DIV><DIV>is quite a bit more powerful and when all 3 are going it is noticably more</DIV><DIV>powerful.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp; </DIV><DIV>&nbsp;I mean the Recoil3 XPS second edition</DIV><DIV>is what it is ! It can be set up in a van or trailer as a base unit. One does need</DIV><DIV>heat however and most of us prefer propane.</DIV><DIV>I just got my first CA Recoil 3XPS second edition . I will use it both as in</DIV><DIV>getting my son off to a good start in the carpet cleaning business and I</DIV><DIV>hope to take some videos that will help demonstrate that it is capable </DIV><DIV>and effective when mounted in a van. I also recieved my 2HT Little Giant</DIV><DIV>yesterday. Tomorrow I plan on going to a plumbing store&nbsp;for all the brass</DIV><DIV>etc that I need to make an adapter kit. Already picked up the hose necessary</DIV><DIV>for this as well as Quick Disconnects. I went ahead and got the cart system</DIV><DIV>so I can take it into bldgs that require security and no open doors. Still</DIV><DIV>will have the great performance.</DIV>]]>

The guy merely said that they should not be using so much hose with a portable and he even complimented Mr Ed's commentary flair. If I were alexaz, I would call the Recoil, the&nbsp;<FONT color=#cc0000> Cross American <strong>Regurgitator XPS3.</strong></FONT> <DIV></DIV><DIV></DIV>After all, wasn't this the machine that left a certain hispanic janitor from tmforums with a soaked customer's carpet? Now I admit that I have never used a Recoil but I feel that Locko "the janitor" (so named by Mr Ed) cried a river on that fateful night. For some reason, he has recently changed his tune and is blabbering about how good the Recoil is. I am more than a little bit suspicious that some Coil Cult members may have roughed him up and shook him straight into the Coil Cult membership plan. <DIV></DIV><DIV></DIV>You Coil dudes are a rough bunch but lets not forget that it was alexaz who scrapped you up so bad at the tm forum that they had to ban him for your protection. I laughed through the whole ordeal. That Rich Tank guy got in a few haymakers as well. Those were some funny times.]]>

I am certain that it has some distinct advantages over a wand. I am just not so sure that it is more desirable on every job. The industry has needed a wand that can clean in both directions, for a long time. The Sapphire Scientific one is dreadful. I tried it and didn't even complete a room before I told my assistant to take it out to the van. This one looks much better.]]>
