The problem with the T-Rex is the vac slots are way too wide and with five of them you loose a lot of vac performance. The RX20HE has five smaller vac slots that focuses the suction for more making it a lot more efficient. It would also be better with just three, not five jets so that you get a better balance between how much moisture is being put down and how much of it is being picked up.

Have to say great video Russ, really should give up the day job!  Not impressed with the T-Rek on the grand scale of things! Like Simon said fixed head is a poope design and the fixed head even worse! RX20 wins again and kets face it they HM tried to top it with the RDM but just didn’t quite work for the same reasons.

 This guy seems to give it to the T-REX

Well the RX went over the area cleaned by the T-Rex at the TACCA day and it looked visibly better.

[John Kelly]

To be fair Simon it would do attached to your machine.

[derek west]

its a shame you didn't hook up the trex so we could compare both attached to the same machine. that would of been a fairer appraisel of rx vs trex. i think rx connected to 30k vs trex connected to 6k (i think) is a tad unfair if comparing the rotarys.

i was impressed with the trex regardless and a very nice looking machine.

Agree with the two comments above................It's a pity that a company has been showing a good product and been unfairly gazzumped by a machine costing ten times as much whether deliberately or otherwise

[Paul McHugh]

Just put my two penneth in, as relatively new guy to the carpet an upholstery cleaning business, I was impressed with the event and the experts showing us how it should be done. I also met some great lads and the help and support offered to me was just fantastic,
So thanks to all there who offered there knowledge without being cajoled into passing it over, In particular Morgan, Mark, and Russ,
and I look forward to any future training events.

Robert, it wasn't done on purpose just that people wanted to see Simons machine in action. Unfortunately there was only one suitable area of carpet to demo on.

whats un fair about completely different machines aimed at completely different customers, i really don't get this, if woodbridge have built there electric truckmount to compete for the titan market then there nuts . if they have built it to tempt portable owners into safely entering the truckmount fraternity then its proved itself at the show to be a worthy contender and ive all ready spoke to a couple of guys who are singing there praises.
simon showing off the power of the titan was a great spectacle to watch, just as seeing the t-rex in action was, just as Jamie and the multitude of encapping machines, all fantstic to watch, fantastic to have a go with and all aimed at different markets. The diversity of this day is what set it apart and what made it so enjoyable to all who came.
Robert please don't agree with me and then twist my words. Jim and James should have chatted to Simon and asked him to try out the T-Rex. The  TACCA event is a coming together, not a competition. we all use different chems, we all use different machines, we all use different techniques, and we always will.

I didn't think it was deliberate John, Simon has become a different person over the past couple of years and a great help to others and giving them the opportunity to see his powerfull machine in action.
It's been fascinating to observe the changes on forums and in some people over time. It used to be very defensive but it's changed dramatically with some of the best known names happily contributing their knowledge and advice to others.
Paul Moss is another guy who seems to have taken on a new calm persona and it was good to see him welcome Judy to the TACCA  day.
Me........I hate to admit it, but I'm now old and no longer able to work the way I could even a couple of years ago so I will have a grumpy day now and again.

apologies then robert.

[Paul Moss]

Robert your right us red heads are a fiesty lot    but once you hit 50 i think you mellow some what 
Me and Judy have rubbed each other up the wrong way over the years but i think thats only because we have not met each other properly. I was so much hoping to see her at the tacca day, but when i spoke to her on the phone she said it was her birthday that weekend and she may struggle to make it, and also we could have lifted the sofa up together and thrown it at Derek ( it was too heavy for me on my own )

All in all the feed back has been excellent from the day and i would say the best meet day so far.

[Richard Basey-Fisher]

I think the problem is the trex   in my opinion was not demonstrated very well don't think the heater was on on the etm well if it was its not very good  . I was very keen to see the etm as the concept is good the vac is good but would of been nice to see what it was like at 200 ft  not 50 ft tops.  No chmical feed which is odd and no real straight answer on if that would be added just a response to say it was not working prop so we took it off.  Has not put me off the concept but it needs time to develop I think

On sat you had a wide spectrum of cc s there and tbh I don't feel they made the most of it.

On the other note why should simon not fire up the titan glad he did as I don't think I would have much opportunity to see one in action otherwise and these are what these days are all about.
