Went to purchase a bluetooth remote button that fits on the hose only to find that all 3 Festool dealers were out of stock, then went to the trusty internet tool suppliers only to find them out of stock or unavailable as well. Anyone know why this is so, and when these items will be available again....?
Remote Bluetooth button and module....where have they all gone

That's a stunner... 
...the 202097 module doesn't even come up on the Festool USA website. 
Hope they haven't discontinued that item.

Festool had to make some changes for the remote (due to some new regulatory requirements, I believe). We have seen stock level disruptions through this transition, but they're not going anywhere.

Ugh, does this mean yet another impending SKU jumble as they change over batteries too again?

I would like to see an updated remote that would allow us to change the variable suction rate via the remote. This bending over thing to change the setting on my CT MIDI I is getting as old as I am.

I have had one sent in for replacement since February. Last time I called to check status I'd have the replacement in early May, with a somewhat cloudy reason of shipping issues. It has not arrived. I'm getting by but could have been putting that remote to work.
Better than changing stuff and keeping the SKU, that is just highly annoying.
