Anybody have any suggestions for for the best battery powered shop vac for sucking crevices and cleaning up bedrock? Also any tips or tricks for getting into those crevices? Is a hepa filter a plus or minus? My home corded shop vac took a crap and I'm looking to replace it. Thought getting something I can use prospecting would be a plus.

Yeah it adds up but I got it down to two 5 gallon buckets View attachment 2032992 View attachment 2032991

Yup, that looks great and No Generator either... :headbang:
I used almost exactly the same set up as yours, with my own MacKirk, now I'm in the desert with the Ryobi battery vac & sds+... I was carrying my generator in for the old VAC sds+ or I still carry then gen in for the Sierra Blaster, lights & air system when tunneling.
