Pet Peeve...Battery Life

[Mike Wilson]

Way off topic, I know.



So why, with all of the marvelous technological advances in electronics, batteries,

charging systems and the like, do the batteries in a Dust Buster or Hand Vac type

vacuum only last for 52 seconds?!?!:unsure:



If I have to vacuum more than six crumbs out of the Trac, it's out with the ShopVac!:angry:

One of the many wonders of life.



My wife would say, "Quit your bitching!!! Your batteries last 22 seconds longer than my husband!!":lol: My response? "I may not be good, but I am fast!"

? :huh: I have an 18V black and decker hand vac and 18V drill, and the batteries last a long time.

Cordless vacuums come with "Crumb Counters" If it sees that you have six crumbs to pickup, it will only enough battery power to pick up 4 or 5 crumbs. Without coing into a Quantum Physics lesson, it can be bst explained by Murphy's Law. :lol:
