Got one for free with a queen sized air mattress. I will have to try this out.

Although, if like me and yours takes batteries... that will add up after a while, though rather slowly compared to compressed air. If it plus in and has a strong motor then its great, but a lot of these are made for camping and such, and at best, come with a 12v DC hookup for the car, or like mine, use batteries.

DataVac or similar seem to be the way to go.

Just came across a more expensive but more attractive (too me) alternative to datavac.
www.canlessair.com

It might interest you. Wish it were cheaper, nearer the $50 of datavac or less, but I am still considering it none the less. The datavac is reported to be noisy whilst this is "said" to sound about the same as a electric razor, that's a factor for me, I'd be using it rooms neighboring others with students taking tests.

If I take the plunge I'll post my findings here.
