Light Bulb Changing Vacuum Cleaner Kit is a set of extras
that enables you to use your vacuum cleaner to change
lightbulbs.
The main piece of apartatus is a universal nozzle that
adjusts to fit on the end of all vacuum hoses. Extending
from this is a telescopic rod at the end of which are
the
simple controls that operate the actual device.
The device itself consists of a motorised slieve that can
be
rotated in either a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
A
selection of rubberised cups, that are fitted as required
to
the end of the slieve, completes the set.
To change a lightbulb, you must first select the correct
cup
size and type appropriate to the characteristics of the
faulty bulb.
The next step is to attach the motorised sleive and cup
to
the end of your vacuum cleaner hose then use the
telescopic arm to reach up to the bulb and press the cup
firmly against it. The suction of the vacuum cleaner
ensures that it stays in place as the motor slieve rotates
it
until it's safely released.
Replacing the bulb with a new one is a simple reversal of
the entire process.

Simple, efficient, foolproof, fulfils a real demand. [+] |
|
| |
how do you hold the electric cord from the ceiling steady? |
|
| |
A special cord holding nozzle attached to a second vacuum cleaner? |
|
| |
The potato is still needed. |
|
| |
//how do you hold the electric cord from the
ceiling steady?// Slieve cable runs along length of
vacuum hose. It needs mains power as batteries
would make it too heavy. |

My device is motorised; provides the suction needed to prevent the bulb from falling; AND it fits unto your existing vacuum cleaner. It's clearly a far superior apparatus. You can stick with that ugly gripper, but if you want the much better, halfbaked solution, then the Light Bulb Changing Vacuum Cleaner Kit is now available. |
|
| |
What if the lighting source is incandescent gas mantles ? |
|
| |
"How many vacuum cleaners does it take to change a light bulb ?" ... is this some kind of joke ? |
|
| |
This is awesome. Now I can get rid of my deadbeat husband.
That's really all he's ever been very good at since he is 6'3. |
|
| |
Yes, sadly it's the lack of the Trek capability that's doomed the fellow. Replaced by a soulless piece of electrical equipment ... we approve. |
|
| |
Yes, he can handle the noodles just fine. But only when he's
awake and not lazing around watching Dr. Who. Which is
never. (Forgot about the Vulcan thing, hahaha). |
|
| |
Sorry xen, please all return to the idea of the sucking bulb
changer. (Gross). |
|
| |
Can't the light bulb just Regenerate ? |
|
| |
Nice try, [CH]. That's a seriously deep pit you've dug for us, and those spikes look very sharp, but the covering isn't quite good enough to fool us into stepping onto it. |
|
| |
However, we are sure that some other unwary halfbaker will bumble along soon. We'll just set up our motion-detection cameras here, if that's OK ? |
|
| |
What will you do when she finds out where you hide the hammer, though ? |
|
| |
I think that there is a lot more potential in this idea. There could be a huge array of different attachments that fit on the end of a vacuum cleaner, for doing all kinds of useful tasks around the house. |
|
| |
For example, a special fork-ended attachment for lifting and moving shoes or slippers. A kind of bypass pot with a lifting and depositing nozzle for taking dried pet food from its container and putting it into the feeding receptacle. A vibrating holder for your toothbrush. etc. etc. |
|
| |
Why not redefine a basic, low-tech multipurpose domestic device capable of performing a limited number of simple tasks so that includes "vacuum cleaner" in its repertoire ? |
|
| |
You could call it a "woman" ... |

// Quieter activities (often requiring edged weapons), I leave to her. // |
|
| |
We consider that may prove to be a serious mistake in the long term, particularly the part involving edged weapons. Then again, if it's very serious, you may never be personally aware of it; only the investigating officers, the pathologist and the coroner will know the horrible details. |
|
| |
It's the crime scene clean-up team that get the worst of it - but at least they're well paid. |
|
| |
Brilliant! Although motorized isn't necessary, simply put a
selectable ratchet on it. |
