    Oneida Strikes Back...UPDATE

    Oneida Air Systems has decided to continue to ship the new Dust Gorilla 2hp cyclone systems with Baldor motors rather than use the Asian motors originally specified. While the motor will be a slightly different model than has been shipping with the yellow creatures, it will still say Baldor on the name plate. I am also hearing they are switching over to Baldor from Leeson on other systems, too.

    Wow, that's quite an upgrade....that would sway me in a heartbeat.

    I wonder if that's because leeson is making a lot of their motors in china now?

    Hi Jim, Did you get that message I sent you a week or so ago making that same recommendation. I really think this is a good move on Oneida's part.
    take care,
    John
