I know it would be easy but expensive to add a updated Type B bag to an older vacuum like my 886 but is is only available in black and would ruin the coordinated look with the blue trim it has today.
I also know after market Type F&G HEPA bags are available but not widely distributed like Royal Type B. Can some one who has a type B publish good pictures of the Type B riser tube as well and make some basic measurements of the height of the rise and the outer and inner diameter of the tube that fits into the Type B. A Type A example is below. If we could start with this end of the bag and work upto the Type B interface with good lighting people may be able to convert to type B with the existing outer bags. I captured one image from this youtube video showing the riser tube below. It is a good walk around of the current model. Regards, Matt |
