That's a pretty cool kit, I've always wondered what they looked like, and what the mounting kit looked like, I want one... :P | ||

Wow that is cool! I saw those little things before but had no idea they attach to the vacuum. Are you the guy that bought the Heritage II brand new? That is a beautiful machine. | ||

Wouldn't that be neat if the Split second hand vac could charge in its holder while the Kirby was plugged in!That way it would charge in between uses while you used the Kirby.for many jobs the Split Second would be easier than putting the hose and tools on the Kirby-of course the hose use is more powerful. | ||

@tolivac - I would think it couldn't be that hard to make a little adapter to go between the power connection on the vac and the power cord. With some velcro stick the Split Second AC adapter on the back of the vac handle. | ||

That looks just like..
my old Oreck carvac! The Oreck had a cord though, but it still was a neat machine to use!

@ KirbyLover
Dave,
Yes I did get this Kirby NIB in January. In the pictures it looks like there are a few scratches on the vacuum handle but they are from the flash on the camera - this vacuum has never even been bumped against the baseboards in my house :) I do need to clean it though - fingerprints and nose prints from the dog being curious.

Here is a video I just did a while ago - you can definately tell there was a decline in the quality of the motors on these late model hand vacs. My Sentria one sounds horrible.
Anyone else have one that sounds like this? Maybe I got a bad one? CLICK HERE TO GO TO vacfanatic's LINK | ||

You're not the only one to think the motors are cheap, when I first got my SSII, I thought the bearings were shot, but, it seems they're designed poorly so sound awful, I have a video here: CLICK HERE TO GO TO twocvbloke's LINK | ||

How many Split Seconds are there?? Wow considering how expensive the Sentria is (especially this day in age when people do not want to pay alot for a vacuum) they really could have come up with something better than that. And it should be standard equipment too. A little aluminum or chrome looking plastic, PLEASE! | ||
