cordless shop vaccuum?

Tired of seeing everyone tripping over cords on the job. Myself included. Near the end of the job, we keep the place really clean after big vacuums and mopping for days. For the little things like shavings or sawdust from drilling for door handles, I like to get a cordless vacuum from one of the tool mfgs. anyone use them? Battery run time and how much it "Sucks"? Thoughts?

Without a doubt my most used batt hand tool. So handy, perfect for the cars and in the house as well. It sucks down a 2 AH battery very quickly but has decent run time on bigger batteries.

Its not for big jobs obviously but perfect for some minor clean up after a job or misshap.

I am happy with the Milwaukee M18 0880-20 vac. Batteries are expensive. Since I already invested in other Milwaukee M18 series tools this was the best option. Check out cordless vac reviews with Project Farm on Youtube.

To cut down on clutter it makes sense to settle on as few different battery types as possible

After a start w/ Dewalt 18v I got pissed at Dewalt and switched to Bosh

I settled on Bosch 18v and Ryobi 40v

for the Bosh I started w/ their 1/2 drive Impact for track wheels, then branched to an 18V drill, 18v grinder, 18v circular saw, 18v reciprocating saw then18v vac finally(for now) 18v work light. They all are outstanding performers.
