Belt-Drive Whirlpool Videos

[geoff]

Over the past few weeks I have been hearing MANY people talk about never seeing a "winged" Surgilator or not hearing the sounds of a belt drive in years. I have had my 76 WP for quite a few years and finally a few weeks ago got around to making and taking videos of it in action to send to a member. I just attempted doing it through upload picture but they are far too big to add that way. If anyone can give me any ideas on how to get them onto the site, By all means, let me know. I would love to share them...

The above sounded kind of crass didn't it?? Sorry, My intention is to share them with all of Applianceville, not just one member LOL

File sizes

Robert,

The file sizes for most of the videos range from 3MB up to 12MB with 2 being over 12MB. CamMURRAY, I will gladly send them to you, I just warn ahead that if you are on Dial-up, it's going to take a LOOOONG time to download them.

Regards,

Geoff

Email address-

Hi Geoff, I work for a cable company, and I'm kinda embarrassed to say how fast my cable connection is. I have a corporate account, around 8 Mb per second download. It would be interesting to see how long it would take to download some of these. But I think there is a limit on the email size. I forget what that limit is. You may have to compress some of these files. Let us know if you work something out with Robert. In the mean time, you are welcome to try to send me some vids. Thanks, Matt

Great-looking washer, and look, there's the tub-mounted filter!

I'd definitely like to see the videos--my email is [email protected]

 

[Compwhiz]

Geoff please send them to me too i just have been dying for washer videos!

 

[Unimatic1140]

Geoff, if you pick out one that is 3mb and send it to me I can post it. The larger ones will take too much bandwidth to post, so for those email would be the best bet.

 

[laundramatt]

My email address-

is [email protected]. The larger files will need to be compressed using winzip or other such compression tool. My ISP has a 10Meg upper limit on file sizes. I'll bet most ISPs have max file sizes.

AOL max file size

I am not sure, but I think AOL max file size is 16mb. Thanks in advance geoff!! Tom

OH MY LORD LOL

I never expected such an overwhelming resonse LOL. OK guys, I'm running at 10MBsec Download and 1000KBsec upload, so this will take some time to zip, (most already are) and send them out singly to everyone. I will try to have most of them out by Christmas (Merry Christmas to Applianceville, you've all been such good little boys and girls LOL . Robert, I will send one of the better 3 Meggers to you to post just let me know which address to send them to. Anyone else while I'm at it?? let me know so I can start the sending list.

While I am sorting everyones E-mail address and gathering everything to send, here's a picture of the mighty bohemoth.

 

[DADoES]

The washer looks like an LFA-5800. Yes? No? LFA-something.

 

[geoff]

GOOD Eye

You are 100% correct!!! It is an LFA-5800.

Neighbors had an LFA-7800. They ran into trouble with it having excessive vibration sometimes during spin. The local appliance dealer where they bought the machine (and where I worked during high school, but was no longer working there by this time) couldn't find anything wrong. I checked the machine a couple times myself, being that they were neighbors, and it didn't exhibit the trouble. So they ended up calling a dealer in a nearby town, who replaced bearings and all sorts of parts that I didn't think could possibly be bad. An accessory balance kit was also installed, a weighted ring clamped to the top of the basket . . a service kit that had apparently been released to deal with this exact problem. They didn't have any more trouble with it after that.

I have a pretty fast download speed at home (though I drool over y'all's 8MB and T3 circuits!, so I don't mind downloading from the site.

However it would be really appreciated if videos on the site were also available in Quicktime format or something else that was cross-platform. Not all of us use WindowsMediaViewer; at least two of us here (me & someone else) use Macintosh with Quicktime.
