    lol

    If I went with the 12mm machine I could buy HDO pads just to be safe but they are double the cost of the SDO

    Just thinking out loud at this point

    Re: Lake Country HDO/CCS

    I know this is a Lake Country thread but the B&S Uro-Tec pads are well liked too though I usually use those with the Flex CBeast so not exactly the same but I’m sure there are a lot of users with regular DAs using those pads. Just throwing that out there in case prices are a little better than HDO.

    Depending on where I look they kind of split the difference between HDO and SDO, pricewise

    I have seen and read good things about them plus they make them down to 1"

    Two reasons I've actually been considering those pads for long throw work.

    I ask because I am considering a machine with a 12mm stroke and that number seems to really blur the lines

    I think most people agree that a 9mm is short and a 15mm is long so there is a big middle ground
    SDO’s would be what I would use. The Rupes duetto didn’t have the power that LHR 15 has so it’s not as violent.

    I see it when I use the SDO and HDO on my Rupes.

    My Swirl Killer mini is a 12mm but a 3” it like the BOSS pads better than the lake country flats and CCS. I think it was due to pad being thinner just ran smoother.

    Not sure if that helps on a bigger system but thought I’d throw that out there for the mini user’s

    I agree. I’ve actually blown up a few LC Flats on my Mini Swirl Killer. The little Boss Pads seem to really benefit from the center cooling chamber. Plus I like the tapered edge.

    I use a SK Mini at work!

    I use the 15 and the Mini and I actually, really enjoy using them.
