Nothing to do with Bags for (Lidl) vacuums

[Phil Pascoe]

I had a message expecting to be told they're out of stock, but it was just to say they'd been despatched ......... which half an hour after ordering can't be bad. I ordered bags for a Lidl and a Henry - I think they carry spares for just about everything. I've dealt with them before and its all legit even if the address looks odd.

Tomorrow, I expect. I've bought from them before. The prices were as good as I found before, though I didn't check this time. £8.65 inc. for ten. £12.99 for twenty Henry bags with airfresheners.

Interesting site and very carefully worded adds, all say "type" or "for" none are the genuine article and therefore do not have to conform to the manufactures specifications i.e. filter micron value of the machine.

[Phil Pascoe]

Certainly - if I were looking for that I would be more careful, but a bag is a bag.

 

[MikeJhn]

The bag is the first stage of the filter system of any extractor, it is not just a bag.

[Phil Pascoe]

It's a bag. It's a bag in a £50 machine that'll work OK without a bag.

 

[MikeJhn]

Its your lungs please yourself.

 

[Phil Pascoe]

An afterthought - I doubt very much any manufacturers bags at this level are guaranteed to filter to any specific level anyway. Besides which after half a million cigarettes I don't suppose a pinch of dust from the hoover's going to get me.

They turned up at lunchtime. I expected the Henry ones to be paper but they're microfibre, so possibly more efficient (obviously didn't pay enough attention when I ordered them )

Peter Millard did a few videos on the Aldi vac (a £30 rebadged Scheppach HD2P) which included seeing if he could improve on the filtration. From a quick Google, I gather the Lidl vac isn't the same rebadging, but the results he found would still apply i.e. a better bag gives better filtration (shock horror). Anyraod, part 1 of 2:

The long and short of it was he could catch more dust by fitting a (you'll like this MikeJhn!) Festool CT-SYS bag in its place. The vac also ran cooler IIRC and should live longer with less carp getting through to the motor. Having had an HD2P ages ago and the motor die in a matter of months, I can see a definite benefit in having (ahem) good bags :lol:

 

[MikeJhn]

My shop vac has four filters prior to the motor which includes a Hepaflow bag, so not news by any means, but common sense.

I have a cheap titan screwfix one. Cheapest one, bought in emergency. I can literally see dust coming out the vent when I hoover dust (plaster dust). The whole thing is a bag of sh*te compares to my henry that I used to use with paper bags. Sigh.

Do you use bags in the Titan?

 

[MikeJhn]

Do you use bags in the Titan?

If not cut open a Henry bag and put it over the container that will filter some of the dust before it gets to the motor and outlet.

Yes, the bag that came with it... My stock of henry bags don't really fit, so i need to buy more.

If anyone has found some genuine bags for the FOX F50-800 shop vac I'm all ears.

I'm filling a bag in a week just with two sanders. Four quid a bag doesn't sound much but it all adds up...

If you are filling bags that quick, get yourself a mini cyclone setup.

I haven't bought a bag or a filter in years since I got one.
