HammerHead Remora Portable Pool Vacuum | XR1600
The Remora™ XR1600 Portable Pool Vacuum from HammerHead redefines mobile pool cleaning by combining the power of professional systems with a lightweight, battery-powered design. Modeled after the proven HammerHead cleaner line, this system features a compact motor assembly, 18-foot floating power cord, and a lithium belt-mounted battery pack for unrestricted movement and convenience. Perfect for maintenance pros, hotels, apartment complexes, and service crews, the XR1600 provides exceptional suction strength in a simple, self-contained package that weighs only 18 pounds total.
Compact Power & Portability
Engineered for on-the-go efficiency, the Remora™ weighs just 18 pounds—13 for the vacuum head and 5 for the lithium battery pack. The wearable LiFePO4 battery secures via an adjustable belt, allowing smooth mobility through narrow areas, steps, and small decks without handling bulky carts. The Dakota Lithium 18Ah power source offers around 50 minutes of operation on high speed or 75 minutes on low, delivering approximately 2,000 cycles—or five years of consistent use. Recharge time is just six hours using the included NOCO® Genius™ G5 10AMP charger, keeping your cleaning schedule uninterrupted.
Engineered for Efficiency
The XR1600 includes a 21-inch vacuum head with a detachable 18-foot cord and ergonomic handle for fast, comfortable transport. Its Smart Switch™ technology provides two operational speeds with an automatic cutoff if the motor overheats, runs dry, or encounters blockages. High-speed suction matches the low-speed performance of a full-size 21-inch HammerHead vacuum, giving professionals reliable power and extended battery life—all without relying on external pumps or electrical cords.
Simple, Self-Contained Operation
The Remora™ simplifies pool maintenance by removing the need for hoses, priming, or external filtration. Debris is collected directly in the reusable HH1508 Superfine Bag, with optional variations in coarse, fine, and ultra-fine mesh for specific pool conditions. This self-contained vacuum operates in only 12 inches of water, making it suitable for shallow areas, spas, and tanning ledges where conventional systems can’t perform effectively. Its streamlined functionality allows faster, cleaner, and more versatile pool service for any environment.
