10 Game-Changing Upgrades Over the Original (0885-20)

1. Integrated Cyclone Debris Separator – Keeps debris away from the filter, allowing ~3.5x more pickup before clogs (huge for sustained performance).
2. Higher Airflow – Jumped from 55 CFM to 70 CFM for wider debris pickup area.
3. Lower Water Lift Trade-Off – Down to 55 inches from 76 inches, but real-world airflow gains make it more effective overall.
4. Tethered Remote Control – Clip to shoulder strap for easy power/mode switching without reaching back.
5. Redesigned 3-in-1 System – Easier hanging without removing straps; improved handle and hook.
6. Single Adjustable Extension Wand – Replaces two separate lengths for simpler setup.
7. Enhanced Harness Padding – More comfort for extended wear.
8. Better Onboard Storage – All accessories (hose, wand, tools) have dedicated spots.
9. Ergonomic Handle – Reduces wrist fatigue during handheld use.
10. Optimized for Forge Batteries – Best runtime with newer high-capacity M18 packs.

The old model is now “no longer available” on Milwaukee’s site, though some retailers may have leftover stock at lower prices.
