Schmetz makes many different needle styles/sizes. I have 3 different style families on hand - one for domestics (3 sizes - 11/70, 12/80, and 14/90), one for sergers, and one for my longarm (2 sizes, 16 and 18). They are not interchangeable, but all are Schmetz-branded.
Just to clarify for the OP, are you saying you are using 130/705H style Schmetz needles in a Juki TL-series machine?
I use the regular (i.e. 130/705H) Schmetz size 90/14 or 80/12. The same needles I used in all my machines. Its a 2200 QVP Mini as stated in the portion of my post that you quoted above.
