The verdictOur take

The CL117FD is a 12V stick vacuum with a built-in 2.0Ah battery, giving 16.7 l/s of airflow and 5 kPa of suction with a 0.65L container at 1kg. As the battery is built in, it suits anyone after a self-contained stick for the van or site office rather than one that shares packs with their tools; it has three speeds, an LED and a high performance filter with a sponge filter. We rate it a convenient grab-and-go stick; CXT owners can pick the CL106FD at 0.8kg bare, or the brushless CL200FD with 14 kPa.
