With up to 45 minutes of continuous run time from its built-in lithium-ion battery, the Pool Blaster Catfish Li Gen 2 is a hoseless, cordless handheld vacuum designed for quick and thorough spot-cleaning in pools up to 30 m\u00b3, spas, hot tubs, and splash pools. The Gen 2 update brings 15% more suction power and a 50% larger debris chamber compared to the original Catfish, making it noticeably more capable without adding bulk. Its self-contained filtration means no connection to the pool’s existing pump or filter system is ever needed.<\/p>\n
The 8-inch vacuum head is fitted with a soft-bristle brush that loosens debris across floors, walls, and steps in a single pass. A nose-cone attachment allows precise spot-cleaning in corners, crevices, and shallow areas such as pool steps \u2014 down to a minimum operating depth of around 12 inches. A full recharge takes approximately 4 hours, making a repeat clean on the same day straightforward.<\/p>\n
The unit ships with one all-purpose reusable filter bag and two disposable micro filter bags, giving owners the choice between coarse debris collection and fine-particle capture for sand and silt. The expanded debris chamber reduces how often the bag needs to be emptied during a single session, which is a meaningful improvement for larger pools within the unit’s 30 m\u00b3 capacity range.<\/p>\n
An ergonomic grooved handle makes the Catfish Li Gen 2 comfortable to use freehand, while the quick-release connector fits any standard telescopic pool pole \u2014 allowing the operator to vacuum the pool floor from the poolside without getting wet. Its lightweight construction keeps fatigue low even across a full 45-minute session.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
