Epic fail

Oh yeah, the jammed shite access hatches are pretty dope!

Also, it runs standard gague hose fittings, which means the assortment of vintage crap under the stairs fits, giving me nozzle flexibility, as well a rotational suction device inter-operability.

Bit like SPDs on all your bikes really.

That sentence is clearly lifted straight from the Dyson website....!!

Oh do fuck off! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Dyson's airblades are not as efficient or as hygienic as those paper towels are.
so thats a win 2ce over.

all kind of air hand dryers are shit. FACT.

Handy air powered shit dryers are great though.

I was bowled over when I first encountered the airblade. Had to call up a mate to tell him what Id just seen. Turns out he had used one before though. But still, a BLADE OF AIR! Its fucking cool

TÜV Produkt und Umwelt study:
Drying method..........................Effect on Bacterial Count
Paper towels and roll..................Decrease of 24%
Hot-air drier............................Increase of 117%

University of Westminster study:
after washing and drying hands with the warm air dryer, the total number of bacteria was found to increase on average on the finger pads by 194% and on the palms by 254%
drying with the jet air dryer resulted in an increase on average of the total number of bacteria on the finger pads by 42% and on the palms by 15%
after washing and drying hands with a paper towel, the total number of bacteria was reduced on average on the finger pads by up to 76% and on the palms by up to 77%

hence why hospitals use paper towels

both are relatively small samples though so I'd expect the error bars to be decent

As much as I don't much like Dyson, the airblade doesn't use warm air so that argument is pretty irrelevant.

the dyson is a jet air dryer.

mentioned right in that paragraph with a increase of bacteria of 42% or 15% dependent on location on hand.
then again acc. that article- states that the above study is carried out with support of hte paper towel industry.

Just saying- potentially at the end of this year i may have an exam in correct clinical hand washing, and nhs hospitals will always use paper towels as they are significantly more hygienic.

Rock

Yeah. Paper towel is best but Airblade is better than a normal dryer. Do you think the fact that a lot of normal dryers are now cold and not hot (i always just assumed they were broken) is related to these stastics? There's no normal/cold group so this is more speculation than anything else.

did you have the pointless osce rusty?

idk what that is?

kinda Dyson jelly cake... on the subject of food, this is typically Dyson.
Me like...

Give that 10 mins to be covered in greasy butter and marmalade smears.

pessimist :(

To be fair, if you can switch off one of the elements, looks like you could lay it on it's side and use it for making cheese on toast...

now I didn't think of that, definite winner.

I think they had the fan up a bit high?

Im 4ft1 on a good day

Me...
*midweek I organised a training ride for early sat morning.
*Friday lunchtime I remember that the indexing on my training bike is waaay out. I've no time to fiddle with it myself so I rush it to the lbs who promise to sort it... Great stuff!
*Friday evening get home from quiet pint and check bike over... Indexing still fucked.
*2300 spend hours trying and failing to fix indexing.
*0115 eventual success... reassemble bike and have quick test ride on turbo
*0130 shift from small chainring to large... CLUNK... Chain snaps and gets wedged in derailleur.
*FUCKSHITARSE... Chaintool is at my parent's.
*0145 move mudguards/bottle cages/SPD pedals etc to fixed gear beater... Pump tyres ready to ride tomorrow.
*0215 bitch on Lfgss

I love tinkering with my bikes (the main reason instarted reading this forum) but I'm evidently not a born mechanic. Normally i figure its good to learn from my mistakes but tomorrow the only thing i'm going to learn is how painfull 100km of corswold hills are with only 1 gear.

Balls.
