I want to get a small Extractor ( 3 or 4 frame ).  Which is better, side handle or top handle.

Electric......

   Side handle is easier on the person cranking, but thats just my opinion.

not all of us have unlimited funds or desire for more than two colony's.
there for only slaves will do.
we have a side crank so the pulsating pressure is problematic.
go with a top crank. this may be easier to convert to elect when all the slaves run away
