I really wish marketing wouldn't do dumb things like this. I thought "smart" anything as a marketing buzzword went out a couple decades ago. Surprised they didn't go with the newer, and equally useless, choice of iMotor to refer to the PowerPro under new management's rebranding. Even newer refer to how "green" the manufacturing is, or what your carbon footprint is as a company. ;)

What if my conventional headstock motor identifies as a "smart" motor. Are there any intelligence neutral parts diagrams that represent it??? :)

Okay maybe I'm the only one having this issue with the new site, but I can't get the site to show any of my past orders so that I can check on the status. Any suggestions? I've tried both Safari and Chrome but it's showing "No past orders".

They don't recognize my email address. The old account info doesn't seem connected yet.

I had the same issue with my account. I had to just sign up for a new account. Although, I used the same e-mail address, the new account doesn't seemed linked to my old account at all and, consequently, my two pending orders do not display either. I think the only thing you can do to check the status of an order is to get on the phone with customer service.

New website at least looks better. Whether it is functionally better organized is TBD.
