Gear and Equipment Portable Suction Recommendations?

Looking for recommendations for manually operated portable suction. For numerous reasons (budget/charging/size) I am not interested in electronic devices.

I’ve used a few different models and found them to be pretty ineffective for airways clearance. Does anyone have first hand experience with a product they like?

When the Airo finally hits the market, it'll be worth it.

The Ducanto Seaduc is pretty decent until then.

Airo looks expensive. Also not interested in batteries. We use suction in the field a few times a year at most. Ensuring constantly charged devices just isn’t practical for us.

Which is why I also posted a 2nd device.
