Questions & Answers

Would it be possible to plug several tools into a power strip, and then plug the power strip into the tool outlet so that any of the tools could turn on the vacuum?

Wait for the dust collector to arrive. The power strip should be plugged into the outlet of the tool. This seems like a good idea to me. The system triggers when the amp draw reaches a threshold. I would only be concerned about air flow being hindered by open pipes to numerous tools. Gates so that specific tools may have plenty of airflow, but not too many. The reason for not doing so isn't obvious.

Is it possible that the load mounted on a dryer motor would result in It is necessary to connect a booster fan to an exhaust pipe that runs along the length of the dryer. ?

If you connect it to your fan motor's 110 volt leg of your 220 volt dryer, NOT the heating element, you'll need to make sure this is 110 volt device. You should seek help from a professional. As I don't own a gas dryer, I don't know whether or not that applies to me.

It has been mentioned that there are no delays in some reviews From the time the tool is turned on until the vac is turned on, does it take 1 second?

The delay is short, but in my opinion I want my dust collector to run full speed so that I can collect full amounts of dust.

Do I have to buy the vacuum if I just intend to use it?

If you just use the vacuum, you do not need the device, because the vacuum only works at the same time as the other electric tools.

Selected User Reviews For O'SKOOL Automatic Vacuum Switch Allows Power Tool to Turn Vacuum/Accessory on and Off Automatically

There is a 1 second delay between the tool startup and the vacuum startup in the online description
3/5

If that was the case, my miter saw and vacuum would probably work together. Actually, there will be no delay, as it says in the printed instructions. When the AC is turned on, no matter what vacuum cleaner or electrical appliance is connected to it, it will automatically turn on. When I have a switch on, no problem. When I have a switch off, I repeatedly trip 20A breakers.

The auto switch can be used for a fan or a vacuum
3/5

In every refrigerator or freezer I've ever seen, the plug is at a right angle. As such, I cannot use it on this device. I had tried using it on my table saw and band saw as well, again the connector is right angle. There was no name or model number on the call or in my letter to the manufacturer. In the end, I ended up ordering from another Amazon seller and gave up trying to find one available. There is really not much I can do other than to reverse outlets or purchase a new plug for Freezer, but that is too much work for me. This will ensure proper operation since it is necessary to have the TOOL outlet at the bottom and the VAC outlet at the top. Virtually all vacuums have a straight normal plug and many machines have a less straight one. In order to fit in tight spaces, 9% of tools have right angle plugs. The $35 I just spent is a waste. It is not uncommon to find a charge of up to $100 on this Orange device.
They do sell an extension cord with a reversed right angle plug, but too many cords behind the freezer pose a fire hazard. The layout of this website is really stupid, even though this is such a great idea. There are Delta, DeWalt, Ryobi, Black & Decker, and Ryobi for home and garden tools Russell239 Many household appliances such as White Decker, Craftsman, Kenmore, Amana, GE, Whirlpool, as well as so many others use right angles plugs.

It works just as it should
5/5

My favorite part of this is You will no longer have to remind me to start my vacuum when I start using a dust-producing I'd say it starts shortly after my saw for example, and then shuts off a few seconds later. My vacuum is connected to a power bar, and I have several power tools on the power bar, so I start the tool that triggers the vacuum whenever I start any of the powered tools.

This is actually a thing! I could not believe it existed! It was important to me to have a fan running only when the microwave is being used
5/5

I wanted a microwave built-in to be installed in an unventilated cabinet. Initially, I sort of laughed at myself for thinking that someone would have built exactly this gadget, but then I laughed at myself for thinking However, it was there! What it was intended for makes sense to me As far as I know, I do not use any different software. I found this to be very helpful, and I solved my problem completely. It didn't take me long to connect everything because I only had to plug it An air pressure sensor in this system does not operate in the same way as a "sail switch" on some HVAC devices. This vacuum is only intended to remove sawdust from a table saw as the picture on the manufacturer's website depicts. Yet, as I have found out by using it, as well as that of other reviewers, it has many uses beyond.

What a great idea
5/5

The moment I saw this on a YouTube video, I ran out and ordered it This one actually works and from what I have read about competing brands, this one does the trick. This is a great idea. When I turn on the saw, the vacuum kicks on a few seconds later so that the circuit breaker does not trip. Then when I finish, it runs for 5 seconds to remove the dust. I use it all the time and have been since I got it.

In the past, we would turn the vacuum on first, then our tools
5/5

By using this, you will never have to have to turn on and off a vacuum again when using a power tool like a miter saw. The only thing they could improve upon is shortening the off time from 10 seconds to 5 that would be enough for the vacuum to collect dust.

There is not enough room in one ear
3/5

Despite the switch's functionality, there was only one "ear" on the wall that allowed it to be attached to the wall. It also didn't sit flush with the wall. You will see the bottom pushing out if you tighten the screw. You would have to tighten it if you left the screw loose. The mounting ear had to be shimmed to fit tight against the wall so that it would sit flush. Mounting ears must be flush in the mounting holes.

Auto vacuum switch that works great
5/5

Set off by no brainer- It's been a long time since I got one. It is used in conjunction with a DeWalt compound miter saw and a rigid shop vacuum. The saw instantly lights up when I pull the trigger, then runs for a few seconds if I am making multiple cuts. I have been able to keep my job site and shop floor cleaner since I bought it.
