You guys with the auto on/auto off for the DC, I KNOW you must enjoy that. I don't have that on my DC system yet, but I will see about doing that in the next few months.
THAT leads me to this:
Our old house has lath and plaster in the original part of the house. Our living room needed some work with one window replacement and the areas around the window. Several years ago I bought a large Fein vacuum and also a Festool RO 150 (6"). I haven't used it nearly enough to justify the cost I paid.Two years ago, Some of you may remember Festool offering a 4" intro sander for $100. I bought that. ON both, I just plugged, as needed into the Fein Vac and the auto-on/off worked like a charm.
LOML was totally surprised by the lack of dust throughout the house or in the living room - for the amount of sanding I did. There was some, but not much. I had purchased the Rockler vacuum hose adapter kit two years ago also. ( https://www.rockler.com/dust-right-u...-port-hose-kit ) Everything fit fine and worked great.
Sometimes all the different purchases just seem to come together to work well and get things done. Doesn't happen often, but it sure did this time. I felt like a "professional" getting that wall and window back in shape. Now, I have to paint!
Auto On / Off - there is power in that. Loved the feeling. Turn the 150 on, the vac comes on; turn it off, the vac goes off! POWER to me! Love automation!
