Overview

Battery vacuum lifter 150 kg with 4 levels and air pump: an electric gripster with an oval suction pad. Its stated load capacity is 150 kg, and it costs around €151. It is sold without a brand name of its own, like many vacuum grippers made in China.

Price and load capacity compared

Among the 265 oval vacuum lifters in this comparison, it ranks in the most expensive quarter. At 150 kg, its load capacity is 110 kg below the typical value for this design (260 kg). That works out at 99 kg of capacity per €100 spent; the median is 341 kg.

Drive and operation

Power comes from a removable battery. When it runs flat, you simply insert a charged one and keep working without a charging break. LEDs signal whether the vacuum is holding.

Seal and applications

The sealing lip is rubber. On smooth surfaces such as glass, polished tiles and stone it seals very tightly and lasts a long time; on rough or textured surfaces it is at a disadvantage. According to the data sheet it is suitable for tiles, glass and natural stone.
