Have you guys seen this new compact dust extractor from WOC 2019? Looks super compact and I think would pair awesome with the new cordless trim router coming out soon.

Will be interesting to see the power ratings.

^ this.  The fact that it’s 20v and only $249 vs. the Flexvolt’s $349 makes me think it’ll be lower powered and / or not have auto filters cleaning.  Then again the Flexvolt is a beast of a DC that has more CFM that some corded models (The new Makita hybrid only does 125 when plugged in I believe.)

Personally, I don’t need it.

That’s only 12 cu inches. The product details sheet says it has 45% more capacity than the DWH302DH, which looks like it’s the same dust box that’s on the DWH161b.  Either way, this looks like a very small, portable vacuum D/E for point of use and not a big, haul around tool.

That could be very useful. The power should be good for dust… basically took a dwh304dh and added a battery instead of running off the tools battery…

DeWALT is not following the standard model number naming scheme for cordless tools.

Where did you get the CFM rating from. I spoke directly to the product manage who said that spec wasn’t going to be available until closer to release as they tweak the product.

One of the younger Dewalt’s rep gave me that information. He asked someone else. Also was told it was only for overhead and vertical drilling
