Nice deal. One feature that I wish this had compared to some models is the valve to push out the liquid in reverse. That way the oil can be cleanly dumped without lifting and spilling.

That's a good callout...hadn't thought about that.

I've only ever used a mity-vac that has that reverse feature and I've never used the manual dump method with it. I don't think for me that would be a deal breaker and dumping seems like it would be straight forward? That being said.. I do have a second mity-vac unit that is dedicated for only putting new trans fluid or hydraulic fluid in the vehicle and that feature is a must have for that.
Do those pumps fit inside the dipstick channel? These are designed to, but my cheap little pump is far too bulky to fit in there.
The pump has a hose which fits the dipstick channel. On the old chevy straight 6, i encountered some resistance before getting to the oil, however. Not sure if I'll keep using it that way as I don't want pieces of plastic in the oil pan. No problem on the Audi. Will try on a Jseries Honda this weekend.
EDIT:
If you're handy with wires/electronics, there are a ton of choices for power adapters. You can wire the pump straight to one of the laptop-type-bricks (like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0711Q5B49) so you dont have to mess with clamps etc. Buying two or even 3 of those for 3 pumps will still be cheaper than one of the AC/DC converter that I bought.

Holt industries manual fluid extract & dispense at Harbor Freight is $90 for inside track & outside track just use their 25% off coupons. https://www.harborfreight.com/del...70795.html
By chance could you send a link to the exact one, please?
Been using one of those extractor for a decade and can't keep up with seal gaskets anymore.
Just had this 100W 12v pump delivered today. Wanted to go with higher power for quicker extraction. Planning to hook up to car battery, but laptop charger suggestion is quite good. Clamps feel cheap. Hopefully all goes well. https://a.co/d/8kekJuW

I liked it so much that I bought a second one to push clean fluids in as mentioned by @nolife above.
