  Its not as complicated as it sounds ...
 
  Might be of interest to anyone with two vacs on the one cord and would like to add remote control  , or even just flick the socket switch on/off .

 I put this inexpensive module in the Enforcer tonight  , I just put on one vac simply to save me tracing the wiring back for two ... but even if that was a hassle they are cheap enough to put one on each motor really , but one soft starting motor should be enough ...  will see .

 It is just wired inline with the motors wires ...
 I should probably put it in box of something but its fine siting on the bottom for now .

I thought these were already fitted to Storms/Enforcers, I'm sure there is one in the Storm but stand to be corrected. nice job all the same.

 Its an option on the Enforcer , probably have to get the remotes also .
 Storm come with it .. or perhaps its an option also .
 

[Simon@arenaclean]

Ah that makes sense, our storm has remote.

[john martin]

although the storm is a two cord .. so not needed ? or perhaps they included it anyway because of the big pump , not sure .

[Simon@arenaclean]

Two cord two remote buttons. 1 turns on the power to the machine through cable 1 for fans and such and vac 1, the other is for vac 2 and pump. pushing button one also isolates power to vacuums. Not sure how that works but there are relays and all sorts in there.

 must get complicated when there are two cords and one remote alright !

 I will try the generic wall socket remotes and see if they can handle it  ...
 If not i will have to get a 12v R/C switch and use that to switch a high capacity relay ..
 be good if the wall socket remote works !

why? first button run engine 1, second button engine 2 and water pump, but if first engine does not work then 2nd button starts only pump water.

[Simon@arenaclean]

Radek, your explanation is much clearer

[john martin]

I just meant complicated to wire   for that setup radek
