Hey guys I’m looking to buy a battery powered vacuum to use for my car or small projects,which is the best brand to buy and do they make them in a 20v
Legacy909
Milwaukee has the most power but dewalt’s has an option to be corded or cordless. what tool line up are you already in?
I have 2 dewalt 20v Ac/DC vacuums. They are plenty powerful and last forever with a 4.0ah battery. The cord is nice in a pinch, but I barely ever use the cord.
I have heard the milwaukee is very powerful, but the battery doesn’t last too long
I would wait a few weeks to see if the Milwaukee vac gets updated the Milwaukee event is pretty soon. They might have an updated model. The vacuum is sold as a bare tool anyways so it would be best to buy into what ever battery platform your with.
Petew im in the dewalt line up but will to try different brands..paule and dr99 thanks for the input, I love dewalt but gonna wait to see if Milwaukee updates there vacuum..thanks again guys
The 20v vac is the DCV581H.
Javier did a great job on that review petew both are great vacs Ille take either one but if Dewalt had the power of the milwaukee with the same runtime it would already be in my collection 😉 I had the 18v vac from dewalt that held up good but sold it when I upgraded to the 20v line
I have the current Milwaukee. I’m happy with it but was hesitant to purchase it because it seems long in the tooth compared much of th Milwaukee line up. If they reveal a new one in 10 days I’ll upgrade and hand the old one down.
