Which pawn shop? I'm in Kalispell for work very regularly...usually in a large truck with government plates and good towing capacity... I also spotted a yard just off the highway on the way from Kalispell to Polson that has three of these in the yard, covered in weeds:

There's no way a 110vac shop vac can make 5hp on 15 amps. 110V at 15A is good for about 1.5hp
The marketing people are lying again and using the locked rotor torque of the motor to calculate hp. If tried to get all 5hp out of the motor, you'd let the smoke out.
This used to give me fits trying to explain to folks that there is no way the portable air compressor they just bought at Lowes is actually a 5hp compressor when it plug into an outlet.

Maybe the vac peaks at 5hp for a fraction of a second? After all, this is a graphic that says one horse generates 15 horsepower.
What the actual berkeley.
