Anybody else is having the rupes ibrid battery lasting only 8-10 minutes?

Same question here. Although it wouldn't make much difference for me anyway, because even after THREE phone calls to autogeek today and a reassurance that my order went through and my gift certificate would be emailed by 8 p.m., I STILL DO NOT HAVE IT!!!

Gift certificates, please

I'm signed up on two emails and still don't receive the notification about the VIP sales. Was waiting for two months for gift certificates to go on sale and still missed it. :cry:

Please fix the VIP sales notification emails. I'm signed up on two different emails and still don't receive the notifications. (I've checked my spam folder also). So, even with checking the link in the original email that confirmed my sign up every week, I still somehow managed to miss the gift...

Wow, I've been checking both sites every day, and the VIP deals every week and I missed a gift certificate sale??? Ouch! :(((

The cosmetic issue on my Rupes couldn't be resolved since I already used it for those first 5 minutes that it was working :(. Hopefully, it at least won't have any future problems now that it's turning back on again. Hoping to use it this weekend.

"So, I just got a Rupes 21 Mark II. I used it for 5 minutes with a nanoskin fine clay pad, turned it off for a couple minutes to add more lubrication to a spot, and when I tried to use it again it wouldn't turn on. Next day it turns on again, but I'm not sure if it's working properly. With the...

Was leaning towards the ibird as well, but after problems with the just received Bigfoot Mark II, not so sure anymore... looking for another option. Something working off the compressor is a possibility, have one sitting in the garage too :).

Also, out of the box the machine had some washed out spots of white residue on the plastic, meaning it didn't have a flawless, shiny black plastic look that I would expect a new machine to have. Of course it's not thAt important, and my husband laughed at my disappointment reminding me that it's...

Any more opinions on mini vs ibrid? I want to be able to do every detail of the car (front bumper, etc). What would be sacrificed in performance if I chose griot's over mini?
