zip-vac

Marclel,
Hi they are not that expensive, remember the bags are multi usage-able. We have a vacuum sealing system that I bought at a Caravan show and would not be without it. The vacuum unit is pretty bulky bit I can make my own bags and must be used on 240V AC. We also have larger containers that you can put delicate stuff in eg cream cakes and vacuum them down and without damage. Now these are expensive but should last a very long time. We do use these every day.

With the bags we keep them wash them out and and reuse them until such times as they are too small to able to be sealed. This Zip-Vac bag would be ideal for a lot of people. My main concern with the product is how long the little pumps would last .

They seems to be available from a lot of places so have a look at them . I f you don't have any vacuum sealing systems these would be a good place to start.

Hi Marcel,
The amount of power consumed sealing the bags is not a lot of drain on the battery.
As an alternative to the more expensive ones, I bought a good vacuum sealer from Aldi for $99 a few months back, and their bags are cheap as well. Works fine for me.
cheers
