Suggestion for improving Ozito leaf blower vac mulcher

Hi people. The Ozito corded vac, blower, mulcher is a great tool and it is very efficient. The thing is, for older users, the bag gets very heavy with the strap around the shoulders. The leaves are often damp and hence quite a bit of weight. Then when full have to unzip and empty contents into the wheely bin.

Why not have a large diameter hose fitting on to where the bag fits and this going directly into bin?

The bin lid can be in the open position with a dummy lid that fits snugly and the hose connects securely into this.

There would need to be an air escape valve I imagine.

Dues anyone think this would be a good idea?

Hello @terrytoons 

 

That's actually an intriguing idea, but I reckon a fair bit of testing will be involved plus, an extra motor might need to be added to give the vac mulcher extra power to push all those leaves through the hose.
