CT22E weight reduction.

Are some of you guys charter member's in the piss and moan club?

My cord wraps up just fine whether it is 80 or 8 out on those things on the back.

a piece of electrical tape will stop the pigtail from coming off.

3 years of heavy use and my vac plug is just fine.

I happen to love the long cord on the CT.  Nothing worse then a tool with a short cord on it.

they are tools not surgical instruments.

Someone had to say it, but then again I've got the euro version and had no such problemo.  Maybe they figure that folks that settle for an inferior standard of measurement can also settle for other lil' inferiorities....woohoo! lett'er rip!!!

Side note- I HAVE used my CT for a surgical instrument- splinter removal, after a few days in fester, cut off the dead skin and suck the bugger out, works great

You must be a person with a lot of patience then. When I get a splinter that bothers me (or even if it doesn't bother me), if I  know it's there, I dig it out right away, pain be damned. I'd rather deal with a momentary pain than a long drawn out irritation.
