Makita VC013GL 40v Max XGT Cordless Wet and Dry Vacuum Cleaner
The Makita VC013GL is a cordless wet and dry vacuum cleaner designed for professional jobsite dust extraction and general workshop cleaning. Part of the 40v Max XGT battery platform, this L-class certified vacuum delivers powerful suction through a brushless motor whilst maintaining portability at just 4.3kg.
This vacuum excels in dust extraction applications, featuring innovative auto-start wireless technology that synchronises with compatible Makita power tools for hands-free operation. When connected to grinders, sanders or chisels, the vacuum automatically starts and stops as you work, ensuring continuous dust control without manual intervention. Variable suction control allows you to adjust power output to match different materials and applications, from fine plaster dust to wet debris and spillages.
Built for demanding trade environments, the VC013GL incorporates XPT eXtreme Protection Technology to guard against dust and liquid ingress, ensuring reliable performance in harsh conditions. The automatic filter cleaning system maintains consistent suction by preventing filter clogging, whilst the HEPA filtration captures hazardous fine particles. With a 7.5-litre dry capacity and 4.5-litre wet capacity, this vacuum handles substantial clean-up tasks before requiring emptying. The included 2-metre hose, wide nozzle, crevice tool and shoulder strap provide versatile cleaning options across carpentry, plastering, electrical installation and general construction work.

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.
Important Information about Wet & Dry Vacuum Cleaners
The tank capacity quoted is usually quoted for dry vacuuming. Capacity when being used for wet vacuuming will be significantly less than when dry vacuuming. Always read both the wet and dry capacities separately if they are published so as to understand what the difference is.
If in doubt you will always need a larger capacity vacuum than the capacity shown in the title as this will be quoted for dry vacuuming only.
The reason for this reduced capacity is that the water level has to be kept well below the motor and thus the capacity is reduced.
