Makita DVC261 Twin 18v LXT Cordless Brushless Backpack Vacuum Cleaner
The Makita DVC261 is a cordless backpack vacuum cleaner designed for professional cleaning in confined spaces where manoeuvrability is essential. Powered by two 18V LXT batteries running simultaneously to deliver 36V motor performance, this brushless vacuum combines portability with powerful suction, making it ideal for cleaning between rows of seating in buses, trains, and aircraft, as well as other tight working environments.
The backpack design keeps your hands free whilst the lightweight construction and fully adjustable harness with waist belt ensure comfortable extended use. A handheld controller clips to the waist belt for easy access, allowing you to switch between three power modes and turn the unit on or off without removing the backpack. The brushless motor delivers efficient performance with reduced maintenance requirements, whilst the mode memory function automatically starts in the last-used power setting for convenience.
Equipped with a HEPA filter for superior dust capture, the DVC261 offers generous dust bag capacity with options for either cloth (1.5 litres) or paper (2.0 litres) bags. The telescopic straight pipe adjusts to suit different user heights, and the lightweight 1m hose provides flexibility without adding bulk. An integrated LED worklight on the controller illuminates dimly lit areas during inspection and cleaning tasks. With suction power up to 105W and a maximum air volume of 2.3m³/min, this cordless backpack vacuum delivers corded-like performance with complete freedom of movement.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
