Exactly the review I needed to see. I've done that exact demo clean up many times in my career. Now I just want something 20v max with plenty of power to clean up my vehicles and around the house projects. This bad boy is perfect for my needs😎 Thanks for your professional opinion!
I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomSEx3 There are some huge trees around my house and the leaves and pods drop all over my deck. Having to move furniture around to sweep has become too big a chore. This blower was the answer. It is light enough for this 70yr old lady and powerful enough to blow all the tree droppings off my rather large deck. Thank you B&D. Be aware the cord is not included. I use a 3 prong outdoor cord 25' cord for my 12' x 20' deck. The cord retainer works very well, but don't try to pass the plug through it. That is NOT how it works. You just have to loop the cord and it works great. One of my best purchases. Very happy.
I've been waiting for this to come out even emailed Dewalt. Seeing I have 20+ batteries for work and in season perfect for around the fireplaces and wood stoves. Doubt it will be destroyed by the wife and son like the others I've had. Excellent thank you for the review.
I like mine pretty well except some stuff clogs it up easily. The nozzle is only 1 inch inner diameter. The rubber flap valve at the entrance to the dust tank clogs instantly when vacuuming wood chips around the wood stove. I might try cutting that flap out.
Nice…thanks! Since we have like 50 DeWalt batteries for various tools… thought I might buy one of these to use inside my home for those times I need a quick picker-upper so I don’t have to pull out my annoying, clumsy canister vac. Just might be the ticket…easy to hide in a closet or cabinet, too!
For the uses you are putting it through, a foam filter sock would provide longer run times between washing the hepa filters. Aftermarket ones are easily available from online retailers.
Yeah buddy! Straight to the cart with this one, thanks for the link. I have a few door jambs and casings to sand, gonna make in not quite as fun as fishing, lol.
I’m so sick of tripping over the cord and hose of my shop vac to pick up a tiny bit of dust from a customers home. Plus half the time in older apartments it’s never easy to find a free outlet to use. This looks like the perfect solution. Looks like it’s a bit more useful than the dcv517 with the attachments.
Wish it worked like the Dyson handheld cordless vacs where I can dump the contents without splitting it into multiple pieces. Does it support that DeWALT AirLock or whatever they call it or do I still need an adapter to use it as a dust extractor with my DeWALT DCS438? Didn’t see any mention of DeWALT’s proprietary vacuum connector but it seems kinda silly to market a dust extractor function without that.
Only just came across this. Thanks for the review. On a purely suction power level, how does it compare to the wet/dry model that you showed? Thank you.
Have you received yours? If so, what’s the verdict?? I’m currently split as I’ve seen mixed reviews across multiple platforms regarding this particular vacuum. Thx in advance!
Do you use the man shaver first or do you like the added cushion from the Bush and its gobbles your gollox or is there a lite setting I mean we only want it to extra the cream only not the jam.
I had the 517. I just gave it to my kid, and since I don't really need the wet vac functionality, I replaced it with one of these. Order is in. Quick question: My 517 had a QUIRK. It worked with all of my batteries EXCEPT for my power stacks. No idea why, but it would not power on with the power stacks. Does this one have the same issue?
silly question. would this work for a car vacuum and in the home for quick toddler spot-cleaning? Or is there something else better for those as the primary application? (i have full Dewalt line/batteries already)
IMPORTANT QUESTIONS! 1) whats the diameter of the flexible black hose? 2) does the end of the flexible black hose with the slanted opening come off somehow - for example by unscrewing it? need to know because I want to screw the flexible black hose into the Dewalt adapter, which has grooves made to fit a 35 mm hose (hence question #1). 3) whats the connection like between flexible black hose and the stiff plastic from the vacuum itself - does the diameter of the flexible hose end-piece narrow towards the flexible hose, so the stiff plastic bit can be pushed in for them to sit very snugly? worried that they might come apart if theres drag on the piece attached to the actual vacuum. THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY!!!
Wood chips, leaves pine needles etc. clogs this thing immediately. The intake is only 1 inch inner diameter and there's tight clearance between the inlet and the filter. Anything bigger than about a half inch jams between the inlet and filter. The vacuum power is underwhelming. The dust bin holds about a pint but the filter will clog long before it's full. Calling it a work site vacuum is a stretch but it's handy & convenient for small (very small) jobs around the house. 2 stars out of 5.
I was originally looking for a dyson. But i have a 5ah battery for my drill. That's why im considering a dewalt. Im just gonna use it for a small car and carpet. Do you think it's suitable
have you attempted to connect the hand held vacuum to the dewalt 3 inch cut off tool? i know the cut off tool has that airlock system on the hose, but wondering if it still could connect? and in your opinion, could the cut off tool cut thru tile and cement board at the same time (like removing existing tile walls) and making those cuts in wall before prying off those sections with a pry bar?
No I have not, but that's a good question regarding the airlock system. I don't think the cut off tool has enough power to cut through tile and hardi. I would go grinder.
thanks buddy. yes been using a grinder for years but connected to a vacuum kind of sucks, just bulky , so i wind up holding a sponge to the blade instead, but thats a little messy. wasnt sure if the cut off tool would work, does look underpowered for this type of work, but i would be neat if it did and connected to a small hose vacuum on your back ,like that dewalt one would be kind of cool.
Where can you get this bad boy @? I’ve never ran into one b4 & I be always shopping for Dewalt tools I use .. Thanks .. Or does this come out in a future date ? I’m in Dallas Texas
Its a neat looking model I may add to my online store. I'm on E Crater under the defleppard11 handle as well as Bonanza the same handle. Say BTW. They look like standard 1 1/4" attachments, yes? I'm also thinking about pairing it up in my store with a batt powered Electrolux power nozzle for to use inside on carpets
Cleaning? This is a major question as far as I am concerned? Filter (without cyclon tech) must become a clogged mess fast, and cleaning it is a dirty job. Am I wrong?
Hello, good day. Im just curious if it is advisable to use a flexvolt battery on non-Flexvolt tools? I saw a video and read a review that said if you use a Flexvolt battery on a non-flexvolt Tool it will burn the motor fast.
There are some downsides. First, it quickly it draws down a 2ah or 4ah battery; I recommend a 6ah one. Suction power is barely adequate, and noticeably lacking when using the flex nozzle, which knocks down the flow volume. Generally, in every single situation you'll find the power to be less than what you would desire it to be; a brute it is not. In a gambit to crate a vortex to keep the filter from clogging, there is something of a venturi at the juncture with the dust cup which creates a choke point in which damp dirt of larger debris can lodge itself. The debris cup should be a little larger. In all, it's good, not great. I'm returning mine, partialy because the round bristle tool was missing from the box when I bought it.
@@LandbergTileTV Oh it's not bad per se, I ended up keeping it, but I just found myself wishing it had just a bit more power than it does every time I use it. the $150 (tool only) price wasn't too bad, but from the clogging filter to the amount of noise it makes for the power output to the cheesy plastic housing which could have used a better latching system, the whole thing show unfulfilled potential.
@@LandbergTileTV How did you get it to attach to your skilsaw/circsaw and/or the 3-in cutoff tool (in your other videos)? I just bought this vacuum specifically for use in dust extraction with DeWalt products (sander, router, etc), and I can't seem to find any that fit. I even spoke with DeWalt and they said that this vacuum isn't compatible with any other products of theirs. Did you duct tape it on or something?
Is that electric tape to connect the hose with the circular saw ? I'm very annoyed by this, the hose and tool connections from the same brand don't match. I bought the DWV9000 adaptor and still doesn't fit the hose
@@LandbergTileTV Thanks for the reply ! I just found out that one of the accessories that come with the vaccum can be used as an adaptor for the tools. It's the small round one with the hairs, remove the hairs and it fits quite well on the dewalt tools.
@@LandbergTileTV do you mean using it to extract water/dirt (wet/damp) in cloth seating? (i.e. that has been washed with dewalt drill with brush bits to get deep stains?) Or do you think this would be better for washing seats/rugs: DEWALT 20V MAX Hand Vacuum, Cordless, For Wet or Dry Surfaces, 1/2-Gallon Tank, Washable Filter, Portable, Bare Tool Only (DCV517B) $99??
only just seen your comment about the henry hoover, dose the longer pipe off the henry fit the main body of the dewalt,cos thats my only concern about buying this. mostly hard wood floors in my house you see.

My GF and I were looking at cordless vacuums all day yesterday. Guess what she's coming home to tonight.... lol
Its biggest problem is what to do with all the attachments. Just more to lose. The included bag is convenient so you can lose it all at once.
Best friggan review thank you! You answered all my questions and showed great enthusiasm all the while. I'm excited for this.
Glad I could help!
@@LandbergTileTV can you use it as a blower?
Yeah buddy! Straight to the cart with this one, thanks for the link. I have a few door jambs and casings to sand, gonna make in not quite as fun as fishing, lol.

what piece would i need to connect this to my dewalt orbital sander?
Will the hose extractor connect to the vacuum wand?
Right i've got to get one of these , looks ideal to use with my cordless Dewalt orbital sander. Thanks.
We use it every single day on our remodels
That is awesome thanks for another great review I will definitely be getting one!
I believe you got the hoses for the two mixed up, the 5’ domes with the wet/dry
Whatttttttt you can hook it to you saw and belt!!!! Im sold!
That is awesome!!! Thanks for another great review! I will be getting one soon!
Awesome video I just got mine in today and loving so far
What's the best features about it would you say? Battery life? Suction power? Something else?

My favorite vacuum for my window cleaning business, my only gripe is its really loud
I agree! we call it the screamer lol
silly question. would this work for a car vacuum and in the home for quick toddler spot-cleaning? Or is there something else better for those as the primary application? (i have full Dewalt line/batteries already)
Yes I use it but I’m sure there’s something better. It does the job for cleaning my car
Like dewalt im looking for small hand held vac that can suck siding off the house. This one misses half the dust even on second pass.
I didnt even know this existed i want it now🔥🔥🔥
We use it every day!
Modele 501 LN or 501 HB ? HB - Handle Bag yellow color ?
Go Berg!
Love that belt clip feature.
Please how do you clean your studio acoustic foams? Can you recommend a specific vaccum cleaner for them?

1. 32mm flex hose, same as a henry hoover. 2. yes they unscrew, left hand thread. 3. tapered friction/push fit

Great video, I’m definitely getting one. What attachment do you have on the circular saw?
The plastic piece that connects the saw to the hose is included with the saw.
Is this a dry vacuum only? Is it strong enough to catch the mouse for jetline? But sometimes there is water in those pipes
dry vac only
This is what i was looking for 👍👏
we love it
This is a great video, I’m definitely getting one for my car :)
I want this to use only as a dust extractor for my orbital sander what adapters will i need to attach it
That's a good question, it lacks attachments. Find a universal one

Can it take small stones/gravel at an entrance mat/car mat?
Most of the handheld vacumers isn't powerful enough, and they just fall out again 😅
This vac is small and fairly powerful. With a good clean filter, I would say yes.
Is this thing okay with drywall/compound dust?
Awesome video! Very informative and helpful
I just bought one. Nice review
Right on!

We pull out the filter and smack it in a trash can, not a big deal. You can purchase a 4 pack of filters for $19.00.

We use flexvolt on non on a daily basis for the past 4 years with no problems
@@LandbergTileTV thanks
How would this work around the house in areas with hard floors?
Works great on hard floors! The only drawback are the batteries, unless you are already on the Dewalt platform.
Will this make a good home vacuum? Trying to find a vacuum for the house to vacuum our carpet. Thanks in advance
Get the right tool for the job. Why would you use this little thing for your home? 🤪
Of course you could.. I use it for my apartment.and car..got rid of big clumsy Dyson.. 😮its great. 🎉
Are there any other BIGGER vacuums that work with batteries??? And are strong??
Yes, Dewalt has one other wet/dry vac that has more power
There are some downsides. First, it quickly it draws down a 2ah or 4ah battery; I recommend a 6ah one.

Glad you think so!
Is the cross over to for the big tool company's to the house starting ? You should give this to your mum to test out around the house
lol you must not work in small bathrooms. My 10 gallon shop vac would not fit
What is better, DCV501 or DCV517? Haven't seen anybody doing side by side.
That's a good question, I'll have to do that test
Yes and the one wet/dry that you showed would be nice all three together
What adapter are you useing with the circular saw?
Electric tape, but there are adapters out there
Would this work on a dewalt cordless grinder when cutting tile?
Yes with a dust shroud
Could I use it for a normal house hold vacuum dog hair car etc or am I trippin?
Yes, but the batteries are expensive
It works better on carpets with the wand and cleaning head from a Henry Hoover. The DeWalt head is great on hard floors.
only just seen your comment about the henry hoover, dose the longer pipe off the henry fit the main body of the dewalt,cos thats my only concern about buying this. mostly hard wood floors in my house you see.

Thanks another mate,I found the filters in China to.£7for two instead of £30 from default. Happy days!!
Can you hook it up to DeWalt's 20v miter saws?

It's a little guy, we use it daily on our bathroom remodels through
Great video!
CAN IT BE USED AS A BLOWER???
Negative, wish it was
Wish it was a wet and dry vac
So do I

Will this hookup to Dewalt 20V MAX XR Cordless Brushless 5 in. Random Orbital Sander?
I'm sure it will. Maybe with adapter or electric tape
I just won one of these in a Facebook tool giveaway. I’m now gonna be expected to clean up my own mess 😂
Give it to your wife. They do all the cleaning.
