I suggested on the tail of another thread that having a remote control for the CT, including an up/down for suction would be cool.

(unfortunately that thread got splattered for other reasons)

With a wireless remote you could tune the suction while sanding, etc without having to stop and start or worse - taking unnecessary risks.

I agree.  My CT26 sits behind my bench, and is awkward to reach to flick the switch.

Perhaps a module that goes into the blanked off panel, but which has terminals that aren't at mains voltage is feasible.
