I needed a small hand vacuum cleaner in the workshop. I am engaged in the restoration of antiques in general and work on metal and wood in particular. Often there are situations when, as a result of processing, chips or metal / wood dust are obtained. When it is a small product, you can take it, shake off this waste, wipe the surface and work on. But this again raises dust and additionally pollutes the entire workshop and the products standing in it. So I liked the option with a vacuum cleaner much more. Moreover, the vacuum cleaner is inexpensive, it cost me only $ 80. Actually, this is a car battery, but it copes with dust and shavings in my workshop no worse than cleaning the interior of a car. Vigorously sucks in any debris and almost all of it remains in the cyclone. Thanks to the nozzles that I modified (I made an additional nozzle on the nozzle, an even narrower point-slot one), you can vacuum any place, including recesses and grooves. The cyclone is easy to clean. There is a branded warranty and authorized service centers. The battery in this vacuum cleaner is not a modern lithium-ion battery, but a more traditional nickel-metal hydride battery. And no matter what they say about the fact that they do not have a memory effect, this effect is. And if you constantly recharge the vacuum cleaner with an incomplete discharge, then after 6-8 cycles the battery capacity begins to fall and the operating time is reduced to only 5-6 minutes. I faced such a problem and my son is good at repairing household appliances, he explained what was happening to me in time and restored the battery. But working with the battery correctly, that is, discharging it normally, is also not easy. After all, charging after that takes more than half a day and you need to wait until the end. Alternatively, you can work not from a battery, but from a 12v source, but then you have to endure an electric wire. |
The Philips FC 6149 vacuum cleaner is the leader in sales among car models. Unlike many portable analogues, it immediately assumes 2 power options: from a car cigarette lighter and its own battery. As a result, it can be used not only for car cleaning, but also in ordinary household conditions, in the workplace, in the country.
Powerful and efficient
The Philips FC 6149 is equipped with a powerful 120W motor that delivers 22W of suction power. This indicator is enough to solve the main tasks inherent in manual models: quick removal of dust, food crumbs, wool, sand, small pebbles, putting things in order in a pet cage, etc.
The model received a translucent dust collector of 0.5 liters. It opens easily for emptying and cleaning. Inside the chamber there is a washable two-level filter. First, it traps coarse dirt, and at the second level, the smallest particles, so that all impurities remain in the dust collector.
Abundance of nozzles included
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with 4 brushes: a pair of dust and crevice nozzles that differ in size. With their help, it is easy to remove dirt from cracks and recesses, clean rugs, including fleecy carpet, car seats, etc. The kit also includes a long hose that increases the range of the device.
Difficulties with storing such a set of accessories will not arise, because together with Philips FC 6149 a spacious storage case is offered, plus there are nozzle holders on the charging base.
High quality and ergonomic
Like any technique of a reputable Dutch brand, the vacuum cleaner is distinguished by high build quality and well-thought-out ergonomics: a rubberized curved handle for a comfortable grip, relatively light weight of the device, concise controls.
The downside of the model is the long battery charging process (at least 16 hours, and the battery life itself is about 10 minutes). But if you plan to use Philips FC 6149 exclusively in the car, then you are unlikely to feel this disadvantage due to the connection to the cigarette lighter. Otherwise, the vacuum cleaner is one of the best solutions on the market.
