Go to central vacuum.com, they sell a Dustcare generic grey power nozzle available in a two prong old style, or a three prong hose connection cord. It is the old Eureka Express style with the steel vibra-groomer beater bar brush roll. It has an on off foot switch. |

Apparently the cord oon the Lindhaus is 3.5 feet, not sure about the ebk340's cord. I think Ricccar has a universal power head with a cord as well, but none of the dealers here seem to know about it, and I'm not going to pay the high retail price on their web site. Is that dustcare nozzle any good? |

The Dustcare model I am referring to is the grey 700, for a bit more than the entry level model in black. |

You can find used pns on Ebay for $30-60 with shipping.
You'll need a hose cord for about $15, too. And hose cord straps. The wands should be the locking type, with a button release vs. friction fit wands that will come apart when pulls back on the power head when vacuuming. |

Those would work. Not the Express type I was meaning. I needed that burgundy color one for one of my 1980 Eureka brandywine canister's. The add said Sold. |

I thought the cord was built in to the power nozzle itself. I wouldn't think you would need another cord if you have an electric hose already. |

Mike, if your hose already has electrical wires in it, than NO, you don't need a hose cord and straps. You made it sound as though you have a standard hose, but you happen to have a pn plug on the vac, which would be understandable. I can't understand why the manufacturer would sell a straight suction vacuum (with no pn), but include an electric hose. It would be nice, but not cost effective for them. Do you have pictures of what you have? |

A bit small to tell, but we can look at backpack vacs or hoses online also. |

There are different degrees of blindness a person can have. Mike hasn't said what his level is. It could be that he is just "legally blind", but not completely blind. My ex Craig was legally blind, & with the right glasses could see well enough to vacuum, cook, clean & use his tv & computer, but he did need a seeing eye dog to help him when walking the streets.

I've always been blind in one eye, due to a wandering eye when I was a child. Cosmetically it's been fixed, but it ruined the eye. I really haven't liked to think about it, but in the last couple of years I've had to face the reality. I can't really drive at night, and with age, my vision is becoming more compromised. Without corrective lenses I wouldn't be able to read. It's depressing. |

I was also born with severe eye muscle weakness in one eye. I recall seeing double. At age 3, I had surgery. My vision was spared, but that eye still wanders especially when I am tired. |
