- Will two vacuums be better than one or will it not make a difference, I run it through all the test

The aglet of your hoodie was sucked into the aerometer which destroyed the blades. Beyond that, great test!
So awesome when something is so strong that the meter can't take it!😂😂😂 So now that you've done this, I would really love to see what would happen if you hooked up two shopvacs close together but when they meet, connect a 4 inch hose. I use a Rousseau dust hood for my miter saw and it takes a 4 inch hose. I typically have it hooked up to a Rockler 650CFM dust right, and it does OK, but I'm curious if I could get more suction with just a 4 inch hose connected to two shopvacs. I also am in love with the Ridgid wet/dry vacs. I have the 6.5hp 16 gallon stainless steel model. So amazing!
YES! I've been wanting to test pipe diameter for a wile. It will definitely be my next test.
@@rightsidedownstudio Do this and you are approaching the CamVAC design idea of 2 high draw low volume vacuum that still move good cfm, This is why I run dual 6.5 16 gallon nxt's in my shop on 4" Dust Rite
Oneida Supercell and Record Camvacs use the same multi-motor principle. They are INCREDIBLY strong machines. You oughta look into the Record for your shop. They’re fairly inexpensive in the world of dust collectors and they’re AWESOME! Love mine!
I will check it out
For the noise issue, maybe use two of the DeWalt reduced decibel vacs.
A few other people have suggested that as well. I'm putting together a video now testing pipe diameter so I might get two of them for testing.
@@rightsidedownstudio I think that would be very interesting. That or one of those Rigid Motor on the Bottom vacuums.
Awesome test. Many things learned. Not the least of which, is as a man, ALWAYS pull those stoopid pull strings out of your hoodies!
Well said!
Awesome test my man!
Thank you! Cheers!
load recovery would change.. meaning on 10 foot hose you would have 40 cfm.. now you could get 40 cfm over 20 foot hose.. just doing the basics here.. good call on the 90's bruh
30 m a second might be necessary with hydro excavation, in fact, I'm watching this video because I'm planning to connect multiple shop vacuums for hydro excavating
The results surprised me, too. I'm wondering if two vacuums on a small pipe would put strain on the motors. Like getting cat hair hung up on Legos that you accidently sucked up and got stuck in the hose. Does an increase in the whine (small pipe reducing air flow-ability) stress the motor(s)? Secondarily, what is the decibel level with both running? Humanly bearable? Will the neighbors think they live next to a jet engine testing facility?
The noise is pretty unbearable, I'm putting together a video now testing pipe diameter with one and two vac setups. This time though I'm going with two of the DeWalt Stealthsonic vacs so hopefully that will fix the noise issue.
Love the content as usual! Keep it up 🎉
Thank you! Will do!
You won’t increase the cfm when you have the vacuums hooked together in series, but you will increase the suction power. If you had them hooked up in parallel, with a larger pipe diameter, you will increase cfm but not suction. It’s a give and take. I have two Harbor Freight 2hp dust collectors hooked up in series and the suction is insane. If I increased the pipe diameter from 4” to 6” I’d hook them up in parallel increasing my cfm but not suction.
completely agree, I am going to try increasing pipe diameter wile maintain good suction with shops vacs. I'm not sure if it's possible while staying practical.
I am still laughing loud at: Oh shit.......it broke it! 🤣
lol so cool
Maybe dumb question, isn't the duststopper connected backwards? I wonder if there would have been even more airflow with the suction going in its designed direction.
HOLY CRAP!!! you're right LOL! I was so preoccupied with setting up the shot it put it together backwards. Welp, I need to redo that test in my next video.
I want to see 2,345. 😂 nice vid
LOL,
I’d say, practically speaking, if you will, no one is gonna use more than three vacuums in their shop. With that being said, use no less than double that plus 1 makes 7 shop vacs
