new festool extractor?

[Kylec57]

Seen a video on Instagram of a new dust extractor. Looks to be a cheaper model perhaps? Instagram linkhttps://www.instagram.com/p/B5BCXA7qb1r/?igshid=vdi3jrtsb9vi

Looks to be a cheaper model perhaps?

Looks like the CT Mini updated to have the same appearance as the bigger CT26.

It is just the smaller model. Cheaper? Festool don't do cheaper.

But nice find.

They're calling it the CT15. I recall that showing up somewhere in a parts number leak a while back. Looks to come with a 22mm hose.

It doesn’t appear to have the antistatic hose.

 

[xedos]

Looks to me to be a mini MINI without a hose garage and with a standard hose. 

Probably slotting it in the lineup between CT-MINI and CT-SYS in both price and capacity.

Looks very similar to these:

The one on the left is the new CTL Mini I. It is out alreadu and for sale everywhere.

But I could not find the one on the right on any website yet.

You're right...for the sleuths out there, the new list of part numbers for 2019 includes a mobil dust extr CT 15 HEPA USA...574831

The other CT shown is referred to as a mobil dust extr CT MIDI I HEPA USA...574837

Yeah new CTL midi on the left, maybe this CT15 is a replacement for the CT17? Certainly an upgraded design if so. And if it's in the same price range as the CT17 it'll probably sell very well. .

Dunno, I've never seen a 17 in the wild, while I see the Mini and 26 on a daily basis. But the 15 is most certainly a lot better looking than the 17.

Hmmmm, I don't know.  Foot print is smaller. But having to pile the hose on top pretty much negates any real size advantage. 

And no Systainer attachment.

    Those taken together I think I would want a regular Mini or Midi. And even though a Midi is technically larger it would most likely be smaller in actual use when it comes to convenience and real space.  Looks like purely a price targeted item.

I think what you’re trying to say is that new highly compromised vac is horrible.

 

[mrboult]

. . And no Systainer attachment. .

Seth

Oh rubbish. I had thought it looked like you could, hence my comment on the better design. .

It appears that the video demonstrates no Sys attachment.

Who do we think this is going to be aimed at ?

The core customer isn't going to want it for punch out work because the ct-sys is just better suited. They're not likely to want it for regular or shop like work either.  Too low a capacity, and the separators won't fit on it.

I can't imagine it being cheap enough to go after the on the fence crowd either.

Are you familiar with the European market?

 

[xedos]

Not as much as you are, so I will,ask again:

who or what segment / trade is this vac targeted at ?

Are you buying one ? What are you going to use it in place of ?

 

[morts10n]

It's only use is for cleaning the outside of other vacs [tongue]

For me it locks that the Sys-dock isn't the only missing feature.
The CT 15 (if its so called) has no brake, the manual filter cleaning function wich the CT MINI/MIDI has is missing. Most important the Bluetooth connectivity is missing although.
Alongside with the already mention non Antistatic house there is an huge gap between the CT 15 and the CT MINI/MIDI.
I am curious if it is cheep enough to compensate all downsides.

if you took all those away from my 26 or my MIDI you would have to make it as cheap as a Shop Vac brand because that is all you are selling me.
