Product Information

Twins Francis E. Stanley (1849–1918) and Freelan O. Stanley (1849–1940) founded the company, after selling their photographic dry plate business to Eastman Kodak. They made their first car in 1897. During 1898 and 1899, they produced and sold over 200 cars, more than any other U.S. maker. [1] This Brushless String Trimmer has a large 33cm cutting swath for fast and effective trimming. There is gear-drive transmission for increased torque and more cutting power. The Stanley Motor Carriage Company was an American manufacturer of steam cars that operated from 1902 to 1924, going defunct after it failed to adapt to competition from rapidly improving Internal combustion engine vehicles. The cars made by the company were colloquially called Stanley Steamers although several different models were produced.

KIT CONTENTS: One 18V STANLEY® FATMAX® V20 Cordless System 4.0Ah battery, and a 2A charger are included At the start of the year I found myself in need of a new strimmer for the allotment, my old Hyundai petrol one having given up the ghost. I had decided to go cordless this time, due to a couple of factors: weight and the ever-rising price of fuel being two of the biggest ones.Glaskin, Max, Steam-powered car breaks century-old speed record, August 25, 2009, retrieved August 26, 2009 The V20 range of batteries and power tools is actually really good. I have the cordless drill, impact driver and multi-tool and love them all. The batteries use high-end Samsung cells and last a long time.

During the mid to late 1910s, the fuel efficiency and power delivery of internal combustion engines improved dramatically and using an electric starter instead of the crank, which had been notorious for injuring its operators, led to the rise of the internal combustion powered automobile, which also was much cheaper. The Stanley company produced a series of advertising campaigns trying to recover the car-buying public away from the "internal explosion engine," but it was unsuccessful. Their advertising slogan was, "Power – Correctly Generated, Correctly Controlled, Correctly Applied to the Rear Axle." These were early examples of the fear, uncertainty and doubt advertising campaign, since their aim was not to convince buyers of the advantages of the Stanley Steamer but to suggest that internal combustion automobiles could explode.Just a nice little safety feature to have and means you cant start this without really meaning to.

Stanley Fatmax V20 Cordless Strimmer Strimming With more than six decades of experience in state-of-the-art carpet care, Stanley Steemer is well positioned to provide you with the best carpet cleaning service available. We are the biggest carpet cleaning service in the nation, and our iconic yellow vans are a familiar sight in neighborhoods everywhere. Today, we know that our success as the best carpet cleaning provider in the country is based on a few solid principles that we enthusiastically endorse: Early Stanley cars had light wooden bodies mounted on wooden "perch poles" with full-elliptic springs. Steam was generated in a vertical fire-tube boiler, mounted beneath the seat, with a vaporizing gasoline (later, kerosene) burner underneath. The boiler was reinforced by several layers of piano wire wound around it, which gave it a strong but relatively light-weight shell. In early models, the vertical fire-tubes were made of copper, and were expanded into holes in the upper and lower crown sheets. [3] In later models, the installation of a condenser caused oil-fouling in the expansion joints, and welded steel fire-tubes had to be used. The boilers were reasonably safe since they were fitted with safety valves. Even if these failed, any dangerous over pressure would rupture one of the joints long before the boiler shell itself could burst. The resulting leakage would relieve the boiler pressure and douse the burner with very little risk to the passenger. There is not a single documented incident of a Stanley boiler exploding. [4] [5]
