Maybe we need a cordless hand vac thread?

I paid $68 in 2015.
Now $103 !

This thing works great.
20V seems higher than most, despite being 5 years old.

I have a few of the 18v Ryobi One tools. Same brand but it's nice to always have charged batteries for multiple tools.

DeWalt gets some bad knocks for battery life and frankly most of the offerings get a big knock on batteries and quality.

So what's the personal experience here?

You can get adapters for most tool/battery brand combos on amazon.

Tool usage battery life or battery length of life before it is not rechargeable?

That little blower in Post #2 lasts eight or so minutes on high with the smaller 1.5AH battery. Good for cleaning under a couple of work benches or blowing out the inside of your work truck. That's it.

3.0AH battery ($45) is clearly recommended on the packaging but I was surprised how quickly it petered out.

It does scream with anger when it works so probably similar to the vacuums as to draw.

Isn't this supposed to be a Vash thread?

Who would have thought. I was only a couple of years ago when lesbians were plugging devices into the wall. Now batteries reign supreme. Well the 3.0AH ones anyway.

I bought a cheapo at Ocean State job lot names Turbolenz. I have looked everywhere for replacement filters but no joy. The filter is conical, semi round with one flat side and measures approx 3 inches across and top to bottom.

Anyone have a source?

That sounds about the same as the ones I bought for my 16V Lithium Black & Decker

Turbulenz/ Westerly looks like a pretty cheap vacuum. This is what pops up on a search.Says "Dustbuster" but maybe China rebranded?
