    you use it for a quick once over on the truck, how is the suction if you were going to use it for a full deep clean? I've had success with our EMS department's shop vac but it overheated and died a few weeks ago...

    Definitely stick with the fuel grinders rather than regular. I have a fuel one, but needed a third and bought the regular on sale, and it's kind of junk. I still use my corded DeWalt grinder more than either cordless ones though. The power and lack of batteries can't be beat, yet.

    I have the 2 gallon shop vac as well, but haven't pulled it out of the box it came in. It's just been sitting in the shed, since I've just been using the compact handheld one around the house.

    Find a friend with a 3D printer? There's probably a file to print one somewhere

    A quarter inch adapter fits perfectly onto my Snow Peak grinder. And the light from my Milwaukee drill shines right into the chamber so I canwatch the coffee beans grind. Best discovery ever!

    Fair, but I'm not going to look for them around my expensive Milwaukee batteries!

    With all this "top off" talk, I figured I'd post what I used mine for. Not the best pic, but it does a good job for LED string lights at camp...

    I thought about it but the juice wasn’t worth the squeeze. A Bosch with more features is like $100 less expensive. That buys a lot of AA batteries.

    Yah, the price point of the Milwaukee is excessive compared to Bosch. Especially for something that wouldn't be used daily.
