I am always amazed when looking at videos like this, HOW much lack of attention with their products most/some people have. I might be over careful but some people are really not interested at all about their properties. Exactly what a consumer based economy wants
Ok VINCE, this has to be my FAVORITE video of yours, although I love them all... You really had me smiling at the end with them all goin at once.. Keep doin what you do, my hubby n I love watching your vids... Much respect from California, USA...
Yes! My six year old son and I have been checking your channel every day since you said in the comments that you would fix and turn them all on at once - thanks it had us both laughing hard at the end. Cheers Vince! Our Favorite channel.
So I lost to you on that joblot on ebay. When I lost the lot I was angry at first but now I know I lost to the mighty VINCE who makes these awesome videos I'm not angry any more. Keep up these wonderful videos dude :)
Thanks Vince. You inspired me to do some repairs myself. Just completed my second real repair of an instax camera. Only gave myself one big electric shock. Learning all the time.
Awesome!! My vacuum makes a grinding sound and watching this made me realize it is still under warranty so I sent them an e-mail. I'm glad you did this video and let me see the inside of the vacuum.
Can't beat a selection of donor parts, I used SPST switch from an old stairlift I stripped 13 years ago to repair my son's electric scooter. he wasn't even born at the time and was amazed that I had done this.
Vince I love your videos always have. Well done getting them all working. Loving the modified wheels. The end of the video had me in stitches literally.
Vince you should get a 3d printer! I got one and i've already used it to fix a label printer for ebay, cost me £20 untested and one of the holding clips wasnt holding anymore so I printed a new one and now it works flawlessly. Saved me at least £30 if not more, it will pay for itself. I suppose the only hard part is designing the models, I have a friend who does it for me but some common parts can just be downloaded.
George Brooke big difference between making a clip and making gears, you need to know the math to calculate the proper involuted angle to profile the teeth, its waste of money to buy a printer for hundreds of pounds when you can just buy the parts from the Shenzhen market for pennies.
Have you ever made gears on a printer? No maths, just count the amount of teeth and there will be a way to generate the gear you want, I got a printer about 4 years ago for 150, that's the price of 10 of those gear parts he mentioned. Still working to this day perfectly. Saves you pissing about crossing your fingers hoping you don't die of old age before the parts arrive from China.
I think Vince surprises his self sometimes when he's trying to fix something lol the ending was great that livened up the video more that it was already
I worked in the vacuum repair industry for over 6 years. We had a graveyard of donor vacuums from Electrolux, Hoover, Miele, Advance, Kirby, Sanitaire, Rainbow, and more.
Thank you, mate. I enjoy your videos. And most of my comments. I say before the video is finished. And then I noticed that you have fixed stuff that I've already sent.
YES!!!! A huge job lot =D Awesome job =D 10 minutes later Ben : "Where have the wheels gone from my F15?" Vince : "The undercarriage is tucked inside the plane!". Loved the ending there - you should have set them all off as the wife came home and said - "these are the ones that will keep the kitchen clean, I've got 10 more for each other room in the house, just step over them and you will be fine!". The noise lol!!!!
I would place a couple of small rubber bands on the worn brush end for a tighter fit to save buying a new one. I dont like spending money LOFF. Great videos mate. 73's M6APJ
Grab yourself a set of needle files Vince, they`ll work a treat for taking little amounts of material off things... Good video again, even though you won`t leave those parts alone when soldering lol I keep shouting at the screen "don`t touch it" ! :) Don`t get me wrong here, I`m not a critic. In fact I really enjoy your approach and take a lot of what I do from what you are showing. Even though you don`t blow your own trumpet, you will be teaching people these skills without even intending to. We all learn from others and I commend what you are doing :)
"feel like in being attacked..." 😂 😂 😂 "i need your clothes your boots and your crumbs on the floor" vince-net the new skynet rise of the mac-leans lol. It reminded me of robot wars 😂
I really enjoyed this! The aircraft wheels fix has to rank up there as one of your best ever, simple and effective, well done :) Oh and that ending had me smiling from ear to ear, it's worth keeping them all just to do that when people come round :D
To a degree, but I doubt the time needed to design the gear in a CAD program would be all that cost effective, not to mention just learning the CAD program in the first place.
@@Pillock25 9 times out of ten someone's gone to the trouble and uploaded it to thingiverse or others , I needed one for a project last week and thought I doubt someone's uploaded it, to my shock they had, but point taken if it's not already on the site, it's hardly worth the time.
@@Pillock25 Making gears in fusion 360 takes about 20 seconds. There is a plugin, you just input the number of gear, modulus and pressure angle and software does the rest.
@@Pillock25 no, it will be worth. The skill he obtain will be used for next fix. For me having 3D printer is advantage for fixing stuff. Plus, 3D printer had large community. Searching a gear template with adjustable perimeter is just a matter of second. So yes, in my opinion it worth having 3D printer and learn CAD.
nice set of fixes. I would keep all 11 and have 1 in each room. Set them all to start cleaning at the same time. Could also add some flails to a couple and have them as the overseers to keep the others in line.
Keep in mind a lot of the chain run products use off the shelf parts Example: 28.50 those rollers are just like the rollers used in ink and bubble jet printers paper guild trays, Meaning more stuff you take apart and squirrel away parts, the more stuff you can fix for less money later down the road.
You made that look easy....but i can tell that you it isn't. the mosfet replacement is not for the faint hearted...but achievable if you have the right tools and materials. That is a learning process that has been long and painful for me. Anyway, great work dude...absolutely love it...peace.
A version of this video could go viral Vince - maybe you should make one with just the robot vacuum war at the end, or make another with them playing football.... they'll need jerseys though. Odd number? Make one striped as a ref.
This is neat; now I know more about how to disassemble and repair my own. These are actually pretty good vacuums considering the pricing - and as always, a little maintenance goes a long way.
isn't it amazing to fix your own stuff? in an age that everything is disposable. love tinkering and fixing old crap i get for cheap online or find on the side of the road. has become a legit hobby for myself :)
Check into baking soda and super glue for making gear teeth. It is amazingly strong and can be used for all kinds of repairs. After setting it can be filed to make teeth.
Haha great video vince. I think you did a great investment on that job lot. Great profit. The last part was so funny watching all the vacuums going, looked like huge bugs haha. Really funny ending for the video
Your videos are so relaxing! I’ve been repairing these things for over 10 years and it’s nice seeing other people attempt it too. Please do more of this style of video. Keep up the great work!
You really need a 3D printer. Plastic parts like the flattend tail wheel is perfect to be replaced using a printer. With a bit of tinkering you could even print new gears in ABS. It is even perfect for improving devices during repairs since you already know why it broke you can strengthen parts. However it needs some learning, but - well- you already learned so much in the process.
Hey Vince after watching the ending again I noticed one of the cleaners had tendency to bear to the right. It's as if a wheel is jammed up, watch it back the top of the screen there is one that isn't going straight.
Vince these have six motors in each. 1 Brushroll motor, 2 side brush motors, 2 wheel motors, 1 fan motor. If you do a project with one of these, make it into an RC vacuum. Also you can try gorilla glue on the broken gear teeth.
Yeah, it's so frustrating that manufacturers use plastic instead of metal for critical parts like gears. I bought a couple of vintage film projectors hoping to combine parts to get one working -- but both had broken plastic gears. So I ended up with a couple of door stops. :-(
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ THE FUTURE IS NOW ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ My whole opinion of these devices changed when I watched 10 swarming! I was elated and terrified at the same time. Is there nothing that MMV can't fix (in a entertaining & educational fashion) ? 🇺🇸 ❤'s 🇬🇧
Hi vince I’ve got 2 charging docks for Apple products that charge 2items at once, both the front chargers have failed, do you fancy giving it a go to fix them?
Hello, I have a RoboVac 30C, the board looks the same, I have the "low battery error", I checked the charger and the battery have 16.8V. I guess it is any faulty componet in the board, but there is none visible exploted or burned. Any sugestion to fix it ? Thanks in advance.
Best fix of the lot is that tiny wheel. Great use of a cheap broken toy. Nice repairs Vince. Fair play these seem really well designed. Id happily buy and use one of these, are you thinking of selling any? I know you said you giving some away to family and friends Love that ending haha
I took a leaf out of your book and spraunced for Denon hifi for a tenner, its one of them high end mini hifi's complete with speakers for a tenner as getting a bit bored with watches lol Under fire by daughters from when I said I only had 65 in my collection and 34 of them Soviet ones, the click of the nag muscles setting to stun was audible down the fone so send out search parties if I disappear hehe I'm visiting Watford in a couple weeks, on way back from the land of the sweaty sock I am visiting my uncle who lives in one of the alms houses in the centre of town, haven't been back to Watford since 2000, I know my old local the Hertfordshire Arms is now a McDonalds, I used to be one of the assistant managers at the Garston one as well as senior nurse at Abbots Langley/Leavesden hospitals before they got closed down.
Hey Vince I’m thinking superglue with baking powder can be used as a small amount of plastic replacement which goes rock hard, alternatively could you try a resin mould but it would mean making the mould, milliput might be another option but don’t know how hard wearing it would be
you can fix a gear using J-B weld first use a needle file to straighten the gear teeth that are still intact then clean the gear with alcohol to remove any trace of oil or grease then coat the gear it will mesh with using grease then mix up the J-B weld and apply it to the gear in the area that is missing teeth place them on their shaft slowly rotate them and let the grease coated gear press into the J-B weld it will form new teeth remove them carefully and let harden you might have to use the file on the new teeth to remove excess , I have used this method to fix plastic gears but I always use the five minute J-B weld

Motorised Nintendo Switch that follows you around the home 😂
you won't see the Switch that often, because it has to drive to the charging dock quiet often&long ;D

Im so glad you turned them all on in the end lol, that was awesome to watch hahah
Brilliant Vince, a nice laugh in the kitchen. Well done that man robot.
Your skills are getting better and better every time I watch!!! well done bro!
Well done Vince. Best bit was watching them all scamper around your kitchen floor. Hilarious
If you have a split gears take them apart with a blade and replase the small one glue them together! Love your fixing Yoda fault finding skills!

10 robots in 1 kitchen - little bit overkill :) Fun to watch. Nice job.
can't wait to see the carnage, when they all decide to have a break for 6 hours on a single charging port!! lol

I was hoping for the robot army thing to happen all video long. Did not get disappointed 🎉
I've watched a couple of your videos vince and found them interesting.
I forgot to like them so I shall do that.
Great video mate 👍🏽 👌

Just clicked on the video but i really hope you let all 10 run wild in one room
I found this interesting and entertaining. Thanks, Vince. Maybe I'll get one someday, now I know how it works and some fixes for problems.
Loved this one, and that ending lmao... it was like you had a bunch of pac-men racing around your kitchen floor
I love these videos Vince. Very interesting and entertaining.
Haha great video vince. I think you did a great investment on that job lot. Great profit. The last part was so funny watching all the vacuums going, looked like huge bugs haha. Really funny ending for the video
Now that was an epic Robot Wars episode!
Hell yes! Sell me one of the fixed ones. It HAS to do it more frequently than my wife.
Keep up the good work fella!
Vince's Vacuum Army "that's a good one"!
I bought a graphics card from ebay that was sold as faulty for £3.30, changed the thermal paste, it now works great.
This is robot vacuum war !! Thanks for the video !!!
Your videos are so relaxing! I’ve been repairing these things for over 10 years and it’s nice seeing other people attempt it too. Please do more of this style of video. Keep up the great work!
Try get your hands on even more of these before you give these ones away and set them all off and fix them if they are broken. BTW great video vince 👍

Recreating a plastic gear is not difficult. Do a little research.
Great upload, I have a Rowenta serie 60, it gives a purple/pink light after I put it on, do you know what it can be? I have cleaned and checked it.
Great vid Vince !

Question I have replaced side brush gear and put back together and now it can't line itself back up on the charger any idea what to check?
haha the end is the best ! Nice army !
how can you disable the fall sensor? mine is faulty so it stops randomly thinking it is at a drop despite there being zero drops in my house.
What did you use to widen the hole on the airplane wheels?

The ending just had me in splits ! 😂
From 12:48 to 13:51
Me screaming to the screen: "The little gear has a missing tooth!"
Samee
very nice repairs
If youtube doesn’t work out you can always clean up after the Robot Wars 🤣

I’d love to know your wife’s thoughts on your purchases Vince! Loved the video 😂
Great ending Vince. Do a follow up video, see if you can get ten cats to sit on them. Come on you like a challenge!!
Vince playing around with the SkyNet army ;)
I love that you took the time to fix all these guys.. I enjoyed watching all of them scoot around 😁
Great job vince. Add some flippers and a axe to them your have your own robot wars
Trust you to get backed up into a corner when they were all going
super cool the army of robots!
Wow watching all these roaming around the kitchen is kinda unsettling lol Excellent video tho!
you can fix a gear using J-B weld first use a needle file to straighten the gear teeth that are still intact then clean the gear with alcohol to remove any trace of oil or grease then coat the gear it will mesh with using grease then mix up the J-B weld and apply it to the gear in the area that is missing teeth place them on their shaft slowly rotate them and let the grease coated gear press into the J-B weld it will form new teeth remove them carefully and let harden you might have to use the file on the new teeth to remove excess , I have used this method to fix plastic gears but I always use the five minute J-B weld
I want one of these, but can you get smaller versions?
Using leaded soldier invalidates the RoHS compliance. Enjoyed the video.
I'm having my third vacuum robot now (Bought my first 2008) and I have taken parts 3 so I can can do something smart with those parts someday...
