20 bucks every 7 years to own a shop vac is the deal of the century

7 years is damn good for a shop vac. I am having to replace my Stinger sold at Home Depot so the timing is perfect. My stinger small shop vac is around 8-9 years.

Perfect for cleaning out the smoker!

Will just be strong enough to hook up to my Ryobi table saw to collect and suck the dust while I'm cutting?

When I look at the page on ACE, I can't seem to expand the product overview and specs to see the details.

Can this one be used as a blower too? In other words, does the hose fit on the exhaust port?

Also, how many amps does this draw? I find all the HP rating for wet/dry vacs a bunch of, uh, HS.


Edit: Nevermind. I see that it's 3amps. So it draws up to 360 Watts, so that's less than .5 HP.

2nd Edit: Here's the link to Craftsman's specs: https://www.craftsman.com/product...vac-25-gal

Can I hook this into my car's cigarette lighter without blowing a fuse?

This is a different model than the craftsman 2.5 gallon shown on Lowes Site. I hope it uses the same paper bagged filters as my old unit.

True, the HP ratings are misleading. (They always claim it's "peak HP" so that's why the stated HP numbers on shop vacs are higher.) The amp spec you note is probably the best semi-realistic number to compare across models and brands.

If you have Ryobi tool, buy a Ryobi 18V car vac. It is more portable.
