What is included in the kit?

The vacuum, a 20V 2.0Ah USB-C battery, a 20W USB-C charger, a USB-C cable, a crevice nozzle, a brush nozzle, two clips and two inflator attachments.

Does it work with other Skil 20V batteries?

Yes. It uses Skil's 20V PWRCORE battery, so packs from other Skil 20V tools fit, and the included pack works in those tools.

How long does the battery last?

Runtime depends on the suction setting; owners report short runs at full power. The 2.0Ah pack is small, so keep a spare or plan short sessions.

Can it pick up pet hair?

It handles light pet hair on hard floors and mats, but the small bin and brush nozzle limit it on upholstery compared with a full-size vacuum.

Is it good for car interiors?

Yes. The slim body, flexible hose and crevice nozzle reach under seats and into seat gaps, and the hanging clip keeps it in the car.

Can the battery charge a phone?

Yes. The 20V battery has a 100W USB-C port for charging portable devices as well as the vacuum.

About the Skil 12V/20V Brushless Slim Vacuum

The Skil 12V/20V Brushless Slim Vacuum is a compact cordless vacuum for cleaning crumbs, dirt and debris from floor mats and hard-to-reach spots in a car or around the home. It is two inches thick, so it fits in a seatback pocket. A hanging clip is included.

Suction reaches up to 60 inches of water lift (sealed suction). Multilayer filtering traps allergens and particles as small as 0.3 microns. A flexible hose reaches up to 3.5 feet into corners and crevices. One-click disposal empties the vacuum when it is full.

The crevice nozzle, brush nozzle and inflator attachments store onboard. The included 20V 2.0Ah USB-C battery charges with a 20W USB-C charger. Its 100W USB-C port can also charge portable devices. The charger is compact and plugs in anywhere, so no traditional power tool charging dock is needed.
