our intentions are good. always good to have real-world thoughts. I know many here love theirs but mileage varies everywhere. for me if it wasn't so prone to stall I'd use it more. The insight given to me on it's use was that it doesn't require much pressure and that helps but it's such a PIA to manage holding it I find myself spending more time keeping it from stalling than actually getting the job done. Then where I find it's size most useful, the power is just not there and the ability to keep it perfectly flat isn't there so again, it stalls. Used as a rotary it's great. I'll do that around tight areas and just clean up any holograms or what not with the big buffer after. Case in point, around rear license plates where the resessed areas are always dirty. The Nano can clean them out and make them look new then just pushing the larger buffer in there removes the holograms.
If I had to do it all over gain, I would just get a smaller rotary and mount 3" pads on it.

Perfect analysis.

Re: Ibrid Nano
Sorry guys, I over reacted. This morning I was expecting a couple of answers to my question but instead saw what I saw. I've always had trouble with a DA and keeping it spinning, that's why I got the 3401 and last year got the PE-14. My whole complaint is I live in an apartment and every time I want to do some work, I have to throw a 100' extension out the window and carry everything down. I really want to cut the cord, but like you say, it ain't got the power. Thanks to both of you for the real world experience.
