Does anyone know of a good portable suction unit with a decent battery life?

Laerdal LSU with 5 year warranty.

Medela,
Do the Vario range.
Very good.

Thanks

The LSU-2 is a really good unit, we have about fifty of them. Just make sure you change the batteries every 2-3 years (£16 from a third party supplier)

We also have Devilbiss units they are cheaper but I dont think the build quality is the same.

Glad its Friday!

Try Penlon/Easts. They have a couple of new ones.

Thanks god its Monday!

With a name like yours, Noah, I would have thought you would have known to always use a capital G when referring (supposedly) to the Supreme Deity!

Oxylitre do a range too, called the petite. Good value for money as long as you run the motors in

I think you may have to explain that one a little further, Dr.!

We had an early unit and it failed (stalled) after only a few uses. Apparently the brushes hadn't been bedded in. Its now part of their QA before they send them out to run them on and off load for a few hours. Simple to use, and they make them for 3 different types of containers, receptal, vaxsac and a.n. other of their own variety
