Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Here’s something new from the Dyson family, as in Jake Dyson, son of James.

Fitting into the interior lighting category of products, it proclaims to be the world’s first uplighter with a variable angle beam – much like you can twist to adjust the beam of a maglite torch from spot to flood.

 

As well as being manually adjustable, it has a small motor which can cycle through the beam angles.

Available in a range of colours, as part of a limited run of 500 units at 495 GBP.

 

Personally, I’ll be waiting until the day they sell a lower range, mass market version!

Another bright idea from the innovative person and company that produced the wheel barrow with a ball [that tipped over with a load] and then tried two times to adopt to vacuum cleaners, a contra rotating washing machine that sold 1700 units in 2004 before it was pulled of the market in 2005, a restroom/home hand drier that's so expensive to buy/sell that it's almost extinct in usage even in the UK; a hand held cordless vacuum for $200 that can't run more than 5 minutes at a time and a miniature canister vacuum with a 9 inch power nozzle for $800 that may never make it to any market except the Japanese.  What's next on the roll out for laughs?

This is even cooler -- a 13 watt LED lightbulb with lumens to match a regular 100 watt incandescent bulb. Expensive for now ($80.00) but longlasting and they work. This is what the world needs.

Again twisting HS.  Like it or not dyson has had more than it's share of major retail flops in its short life cycle in the USA.  You and others who work/promote dyson's products on the consumer forum boards can't get around these facts anymore with fancy foot work and words.  It's too late.  The jury is no longer out.  It's in. And the verdict is not favoroable for dyson.

Mornin' retardturtle1,

The LED lightbulb is a great idea but needs to come more into the public awareness -- just about the same as the flourescent compact bulb. It not only casts bright light but saves money. However, at least I think this is the case, its makers are trying to make as much as possible on their investment up front.

Apparently there's been further thought about this as the site the link leads to had this bulb at a substantially higher price when I last looked. No matter how wonderful something is it equals zilch if no one buys it.

Best,

hi venson...,,,,      ur right...its all about the money in the end.....but i gotta say i like the color of the light the led puts out...not too fond of the flours..kinda reminds me of a long overly lit secluded hallway in a hospital....but i have been thinking of getting a couple of those led  mr series floods  and putting them in my vacs....and let them guide me on my quest for clean...hmmm.
