Festool 202098 Bluetooth Remote Control For Ct

After years of Sears and Ridgid shop vac bliss for general clean-up, bought a Festool midi I for woodworking. Bought this Bluetooth switch since my Makita track saw didn’t support Bluetooth. What I learned is, this little magic button is incredibly handy, all day long, for any clean-up chore. Whenever I need to clean up a spot, I just grab the end of the hose and the power switch is right there. No trudging over to the vacuum to turn it on, than back to the vacuum again to turn it off. Such a simple, small thing, but trust me after five minutes you’ll wonder why every vacuum isn’t designed this way. I recently put up a Jet AFS-1000 air handler on the ceiling. Grabbed the end of the hose, walked it up the ladder, rested it in one of the leader’s tool holder openings, and whenever I needed to clean up drill/screw dust it was right there - just grabbed it, pushed the button, cleaned up, button again to turn off, awesome. No up-and-down the ladder. So many other times I’ve used this, hard to explain until you have it. Pairing worked perfectly, and it has not failed once in several months. Biggest no-brainer in the history of lofty-priced Festool gear. One other tip - the anti-static hose system (both hose and vacuum must have anti-static connections) has completely solved my track saw dust problems. Regular shop vacs just don’t work, at least not in Southern California weather. I had so much dust clinging to my Ridgid hose and even to the vacuum itself, and everything else around me became statically charged as well. Got tired of getting zapped and of walking around looking like a dust magnet. Expensive, but definitely worth it.

A very handy gadget for Festool(s). Easy to install and works like charm

This is a genius idea, exactly what I expect from Festool. Especially for repeated quick clean ups like when you are drilling cabinets for hinges. The on-off button for the vac is right there at the end of the hose where it should be. Paired first time with my CT Midi and works perfectly. Maybe the best Festool ever.

Not sure how this is on here, it's out of stock everywhere else. A must have for the CT

Saves me a lot of time not to have to go to the Festool dust extractor to turn it on when I want to use it.

Such a game changer!! This saves me time and awkward bending behind my lathe!!

Honestly, I hate how much this costs, but as a Festool owner I'm used to it by now. This is so, so convenient for my cordless tools. Just click the button and you're going, with similar convenience to the auto-start of the plug in outlet.

Works exactly as described. Easily linked to vacuum. The package arrived faster than expected, perfect addition to Festool system

Perfecto 👌

FESTOOL, tout est dit ! Facile à mettre en place sur le tuyau d'aspiration, très facile à appairer avec l'aspirateur, c'est vraiment un plus lors de son utilisation ! Je recommande, même si le prix est un peu élevé ... il faut se résoudre à payer la qualité du produit !

Accessoires très pratique à placer sur le tuyau de votre aspirateur Festool, ce qui permet de démarrer à distance l'aspiration sans devoir quitter votre table de travail pour appuyer sur le bouton "on" de la machine. Fixation facile, appairage tout aussi facile. Bref, un produit Festool, pratique et bien conçu.

Life changer! So much easier to use and speeds up my working. Brilliant piece of kit and a must have for any trades person.

Toppen 👍
