This looks just like the metro vac & blow.. main difference I see just by skimming the page is that it's a 3hp vs 4hp

Anyone ever use this?

So let us know the specs on the other vacuum too and that they have been verified.

You know the sell 3HP table saws that could never run at that load as well.

Anyone try it yet?
