    Anytime AG has a gift certificate offer I always grab one up you can use the gift cards on everything which is cool. If your into detailing you will never run out of products to buy.

    I wish someone would come out with a small rotary like this that plugged in and had a little stronger motor.

    Flex has the PE8, a small rotary that can take 1"-3" pads. It is plug in, is almost as powerful as a full sized rotary (800 W), and will accept extensions. Some have issues wtih it belmg a rotary (only, no DA), and that the minimum speed is 1300 RPM (which if you think about it, really isn't that bad, as the pads are small, so 1300 RPM on a 3" pad is the same speed, at the edge, as a 5.5-6" pad at 650 RPM). Its a lot less than an iBrid, but don't know the US prices off the top of my head, as I live in Canada.

    Forensic detailing does have a video review on Youtube, and has other detailing videos where he uses it. He also has a video on the iBrid.

    That's pretty cool, same principal as the Dremel.

    I personally think it's a tad shy of power for headlight correction.on light correction to moderate I would say maybe.for heavy probably no.
    I've used it with the AC adapter and found it has more power and runs cooler for long periods of time.

    Good to know - I'll have to try that out. I've yet to use the AC adapter with how quick the batteries charge.

    When I want power out of the iBrid I switch to AC. Give it a try and let us know your results.
