The nice think about the Home Depot unit is the 2 1/2" fittings (increased flow) , low profile (4") and it simply snaps onto a bucket. For 40 bucks its Ideal. I plan on making a carrier to store it on top of the shop vac so it is part of the package and gets rolled around with the Vac.
All true, and identical can also be found for less than half as much cost at Harbor Freight.

Thought I would give an update on my setup. What I have found is the filter bag on the vac, without the Dust Deputy, lasts about 2 weeks. The one with the Dust Deputy is at about 5-6 weeks. And when I checked it yesterday it was still feeling empty.
Will most likely get another Dust Deputy in the near future.
