Doesn't seem to stop people on here raving about LEDs.

I'll not use any lamp that gives an inferior performance to tungsten

Neither would I. However since I have found some LEDs that out perform
their Tungsten equivalents, I am happy to use them.

But then I'd not accept an inferior performance from a new vacuum cleaner
either.

There is probably a workaround that lets you buy a dust collector with
more power anyway.



My Bosch GAS25 vac doesn't need 2kW to do its job and its somewhat
better than most 2kW cylinder vacs you could buy a year or two ago.

I bought a Miele 2kW vac in the clearance sales just before the "ban"
and I seldom run that above minimum and that is all of 600W. Anymore
than that and it starts lifting the carpets.

You really don't need 2kW to power a domestic vac despite what the
brexiteers claim.

If its a factory you are cleaning you can still buy a 2kW vac, probably
not at currys though.
