Hi all, does anyone use an Ltd3 with 2" hose at 150'? Thanks, David.

Haven't used an LTD3 but ...

In the states , where the LTD3 is designed  , the LTD3 model uses the 'regular' powered 1400w electros .
The LTD5 uses the more powerfull 1600w electros .

What ever chance you'd have to use 150' with a LTD5 i think youd have less with the LTD3 .
And then ...  woodbridge dont seem to even list eletro motors as spares on its site ... but it does list its own generic sourced brand ' powervac ' ... so are they putting those into the Mytees ... who knows .
The UK would seem to be an after thought for Mytee , you are best to stick with machines that are designed by competent UK manufacturers like Ashbys  Alltec or cleansmart  .
Having said that if you already own one im sure its a decent portable.

It uses 1500 watt 5.7's in parallel.  The motors are attached directly to the underside of the tank. I use similar motors in series and get ok results at 66'.  I want to know if claims of 150' are realistic in parallel.  Best way to find the answer is to ask someone who uses one. D

 and what will they tell you ?  ... you can use it with 150' ... you can attach 150' to any machine , it will still suck to some extent ,its totally subjective as to what is still acceptable at the end of the hose .
It uses two 1500w motors ...  What ? 1500w motors ?  if you know how many airwatts they produce you can kind of predict the performance .   The 1500w motor is likely around 450 airwatts  ...   the machines that are usable at long hose lengths are using the 1600w newer motors with around 600 airwatts ..

Thank you for that. That is why I want to find somene who uses one. They'd know the if the performance is acceptable. Thanks again, D
