I guess it depends on where that measurement comes from.

Could be 6 or 12mm difference in diameter...

Like throw some wax on the car while keeping them both stationary so you can actually see the coverage difference.

You won't see it from me because I'm not that curious about it. I'll base my satisfaction of the performance on the actual results I get from the machine. The minutia and side by side comparison stuff, well frankly I don't have the time or the patience for it. There are so any other things to do with my time.

It's a beast isn't it. Have you had a chance to plug it in and fire it up?

My G15 arrived today and it certainly is a beast. Anyone who was a skeptic will change their mind once they get their hands on one. Smooth as silk even with a Buff & Shine pad. Fit and finish are superb and I can see the variable speed trigger saving allot of time.

Worst thing I can say is the tee shirts run small--should have gotten a large.

BTW: Has anyone figured out a good way to mark a black backing plate--black permanent marker line certainly isn't going to work.

I put my GG 21 to the test today, I don't think stalling is going to be a concern. I was thinking the same thing you were. But I put it through it's paces on some curves and sloped panels and it didn't phase it.
