| Dec 28, 2021 at 22:48 | comment | added | JACK | @user45623 I agree with your comments and have used whatever vacuum was handy to cleanup a work area. Your question dealt with how a particular vacuum might respond to load of no load. All vacuums run under some load because of the filters and vacuum bags. Other operating conditions that could damage a vacuum would be stated in the operating instructions. Anything here would be a matter of opinion. | |

| Dec 27, 2021 at 22:45 | comment | added | crip659 | Would think less air resistance would be good for a vacuum. More air resistance, like sucking your hand over a vacuum hose will damage/overheat the motor. Even the brush motor will not over speed, but keep a constance speed. | |
