        I mean, how do I tell what battery this model (listed here on OzB) uses?

    Thanks - I'm interested…

    How is the battery performance and of course how is the suction?
    Would you recommend this product?

    Cornbeef, is this powerful enough to pick up sand, dirt, bits of grass and small pieces of rubbish? Looking to get one for the car as I have floorboards at home and don't have a vacuum cleaner.

    Also, how long does the battery run for?

    Thanks!

      My apology - I just checked and ours is the 16.8V model, which sells for $98 http://www.thegoodguys.com.au/buyonline/Black_&_Decker_Dustb…

      You may want to check them side by side. Plus you may want to see if something like this is still available to compare http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/114635

      On the 16.8V the battery performance is about 10 minutes on full throttle. It has a charging stand/disc, so I'm unsure whether it's also meant to be objet d'art. Generally we use ours for spills in the kitchen, sand in the hall, car seats, and conversation starter - that sort of thing - and it works fine for these jobs. The longer nozzle is useful and the suction is good.

      I think it's handy around the home, particularly on carpet, and saves getting the big Vac out. It's quite a tall unit so will need a cupboard not a drawer. We tried the 18V BD pivot model as well but it had a flimsy latch set up.

      For the car tiger you may want something that sucks for longer, like a DVD boxset of the Big Brother series, as these are better suited to ad hoc use.
