You can see that material is moving properly through the cyclone as
opposed to being stuck at a clog someplace.
Plus it looks real cool.
It looks to me like the buyer supplies his own chip bin.

I don't get it... they've made everything transparent *except* the part that
really *needs* to be transparent: the chip bin.
What's the point?

I dunno... I have a metal-bodied cyclone (Oneida 1.5HP), and it seems to me
that most of the noise that it produces is due to large volumes of air moving
at fairly high speed. IOW, it sounds more like wind than like a machine.
In any event, I don't think the noise level from my dust collector is
particularly relevant: the TS, RAS, planer, and routers, at least, make a
*lot* more noise than the DC, so I'm wearing hearing protection all the time
anyway.

Yeah, well, I don't need a transparent cyclone to tell me that material is, or
isn't, moving. I'm too busy watching the tool I'm working at to pay attention
to what the dust collector looks like. If it's full, or clogged, I figure it
out pretty quickly, when the sawdust starts pouring out of the bandsaw, or the
chips begin to fly out the front of the planer.

Yep. Where can I buy a transparent chip bin for my Oneida DC?

Not sure about the one you listed , but check out

around. It may provide a useful comparison of quality and features.
