:iagree: ... I can tell you (at least with the other two Flex Cordless tools) that it is bliss working without a cord. Especially on something like these big things.

Aaryn, I have to ask you...... What is this machine, and what does it do?

Looks like a combine?

Hey ya PaulMys.

This Pellenc machine is a Grape Harvester but can be configured for leaf plucking, spraying etc too.

I live in the heart of the wine industry in NZ & local Savignon Blanc are well regarded around the World. If you’re a wine drinker, next time you’re at the store look for a Marlborough Savignon Blanc.

Nice, thanks Aaryn.

Yeah, here on the North Fork of Long Island they have replaced 95% of the farms here with vineyards. So I am familiar.

There isn't ONE of them that has anything CLOSE to that machine though. Lol

NEW FLEX XCE 3401 Corded and Cordless Polishers!

Mike now that the cordless full size polishers and dual action machines are out, is anyone talking about a cordless polisher the size of the Griots Garage 3" polisher? I have the Rupes iBrid but there are times you need a bit more power. Right now I'm using the cordless Flex but if I want 3" machine with some power then I need the Griots so it's back to the cord. It would be nice to have a polisher the size of the Griots 3" polisher but cordless.

How hot does the shroud get?

You mean the new plastic shroud?


I don't put my hand on it when using this tool so to me it's a non-issue and I couldn't tell you if it gets hot or it doesn't get hot again, because I don't put my hand on it.

My guess is it doesn't get near as hot as the aluminm shroud. And just to note, if you've ever used the traditional 3401 with the aluminum shroud and you noticed the shroud was hot - that's because you've been buffing like a MAD MAN and getting whatever job you're doing done fast.


No trade-offs in life.

That's a great idea and I know I've been wanting a tool like this and a LOT of other people have been wanting a tool like this for a LONG time.

For me, now that I've used the Nano since it was introduced for all types of detailing duties, the way I use it for 99.99999999% of my work is in rotary mode with 1" foam cutting pads, sometimes microfiber cutting pads and once in a while foam polishing pad.

I rarely if ever us it in free spin mode with either the 3mm or the 12mm orbit heads.

I should of stated the current model. I saw in another post someone was saying it got a little warm. I was hoping on talking the wife and daughter on getting me one for Christmas, so I was wondering on the current model or holding out for the new model after reading this tread about the new one. I'm sure either way I can't go wrong.
 
Have they said if the price point will be the same on them?
 
Thats awesome! Finally an updated 3401. Been a long time coming.

I love this design layout. Works so well with the PE14 and XFE
 
I can’t wait for the Super Beast!!!! Not that there is anything wrong with my 3401 tho. The new ergonomics are gonna be awesome I feel!

And if the video I saw is of the new Super Beast, it's more quiet.

Saw some video on Instagram.
