Milwaukee has two new cordless Wet/Dry Vacuums. Cordless you ask? The 0880-20 28-volt wet/dry vacuums work on V28TM lithium-ion batteries while the 18-volt 0880-20 wet/dry vacuums are equipped with dual battery connector blocks working on all 18-volt Milwaukee slide-on batteries, including NiCd and lithium-ion.

Though wet/dry vacs suck a lot of juice, according to the company, both models offer longer continuous run time at 16 minutes with V28 batteries. That's a pretty good run time for a portable unit.

The company's reusable CleanStream filters fine dust and debris and does not need to be changed between wet and dry applications. Both units have a stackable design and an accessory storage, so you won't be tearing apart the truck looking for the narrow attachment (mine is currently MIA in my apartment). Like some other vacuums, the blower port doubles as, well, a blower. 

Here are the specs:

• Capacity: 2 gallons
• Hose Diameter: 1-1/4”
• Water Lift: 32”
• Air Flow (CFM): 45
• Peak Air Power: 48 Watts
• Filter Type: Washable High Efficiency (99.7% at 0.3 Micron) Cartridge Filter
