The Turbo Sander uses hook and loop type sandpaper, weighs only 3.5 lbs. The telescoping pole will extend to a total length of over 7 feet enabling sanding up to10 foot walls.
The Turbo sander is designed to be used with the Dustless Technologies 16003 and 16006.vacuums. Although the attacment may work with other strong vacuums, there are no guarantees.

Dustless Technologies has their own drywall dustless sanding system. It is a "dry" sanding method, that employs the use of their own Turbo Sander attachment.
The Turbo Sander is an automatic sander driven by the suction of the vacuum rather than by an electric motor. The same suction from the vacuum that drives the sander also pulls the sanding dust down into the vacuum.
The square design of the sanding head allows access into corners, something that the round sanders cannot do.

Aqua Filter Alternative
If you are content with the shop vacuum that you already have, and cannot (or don’t want to) fit it with a HEPA filter, then you may want to try the wet method of pre-filtering drywall dust. This method will work with almost any shop vacuum.
The Sand and Kleen system comes with either a hand sander or pole sander or both depending on the product you purchase.
The advantage of the water filtering method is that you don’t need to buy a HEPA filter or special fine dust collection bag for a dustless system.
The hose to the sanding attachment is also lighter weight than a standard vacuum hose, creating less weight and drag on the sanding attachment.
The down side is that it is a bit cumbersome in that the water bucket needs to be constantly moved (as well as the vacuum and attachment). Another “issue” with the wet system is that the water will mix with the sanding dust creating a muddy mess in the hose line.
When you are done sanding you will need to wash out the vacuum hose.
I don’t think the water filter system is quite as dust free as the dry vacuuming system either.
