BLACK+DECKER 18V Lithium-Ion Pivot Dustbuster - $59 SPECIAL
https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0773JBHM5
Just bought one of these little beasts yesterday and its a cracker. Its bendy too
On sale right now for $59, which is 55% off... Today is Wednesday 2nd,so only the gods know how long this might last.
Felt it might be useful for you slobs to do quick vacs rather than pulling the Darlek out.

I have an older version of this hanging on the wall in the shed - have had it for years. Mine has been a very good unit and never missed a beat, though the battery does not last as long between charges as it once did. Still long enough for me to go right through a large 4WD and clean the floors though.
A few years back, the wife bought a Dyson portable unit of similar size. The B&D absolutely killed it, and it wasn't long before the battery in the Dyson was completely dead and we threw the thing in the rubbish - even from new, the battery in the Dyson did not last as long between charges as the B&D did.

Yes, received and used today.
It is replacing a B+D DustBuster 1688. I think its as old as my adult kids!
The batteries gave up the ghost recently. No more pizzaz. I looked to replace them, but the batteries (1.2V 2200mah Sub C Ni-Cd x 16) have gone ballistic in price since I last looked at them. China seems to be having some.... issues... with some things.
SO! Rather than futz around spending $50 t repair a $59 replacement.... it was a no brainier.
So far I'm very pleased with it. I did the kitchen and "laundry" with it. Its decently powerful, but a noisy beastie.
If I were to get one for the workshop and car, I'd consider this model, which is essentially the same, but with a snorkel

DONT FORGET to use CamelCamelCamel.com to watch for the best price!!!! For example, the machine above is $118 today, but was 66.38 a few days ago. Create an alert!
