Hmmm. My info tells me that the mega mouse (different from the mouse sander) is a random orbit buffer. Should be the same as the porter cable, except that this is fixed at 10,500 OPM.

The PC site lists the 7336 as having 3.7 amps, and 2500-6000 OPM (not RPM).

So, the mega mouse spins faster than the PC, but doesn't have as much amps (power?).

It does have the velcro backing pad, and should accept the same size pads, etc as the PC. While is has less power, it does spin at a higher rate (albeit a fixed rate).

Is there a likeliehood that this would work in place of a PC? Unfortnately, with my experience I just don't know. Is the experiment worth trying, however?

If it works, it could be a cheaper alternative. If it doesn't...
