Hybrid Vacuums
Original Message Sep 7, 2009 2:27 pm

Not sure if this was mentioned yet:

Is there really a market for a plug/battery vacuum?

Not sure how I feel about it yet. I mean who hasn't cussed the vacuum when the plug fell out but worth additional cost....

Hi turtle1,

Also, I've hated teeshirts since I was a kid and in a household of one I never have enough old and used ones around to make for a steady supply of dust cloths.

Hi Venson:

Old socks with the tube part cut off and put over your hand/lower arm work pretty well too. With dusting/painting etc. I am OCD.

Electrolux has dabbled in cordless vacuums since the 1205.

They also had a hydrogen powered prototype in 2000.

Battery technology is still not there for full, long-running, fade free power
