Default Oil extractor options?

The factory Kent-Moore oil extractor tool seems a little spendy. Is there a consensus on a less pricey option for oil removal? I'm familiar with Motive products, but wondered what folks here use to do oil changes?

I bought the one in this video since the MityVac I used on our LR4's was only 8 quart capacity. Need 10 quart capacity for the P400.

I have the MityVac (Amazon) and an OEM (Summit Racing). Both work well. The MityVac is hand pump and the OEM hooks up to an air compressor. Why 2? Two different locations.

OEM for me and it works great. And the brand is OEM not a JLR "OEM" one. Even though we do have 9 Qt in our defenders, getting a fluid extractor under that size is really no big deal. just a quick poor into a use oil container and then back to finishing the job. Also works great for my lawn mower and motorcycles.

I got one from summit as well. It works, but daising chaining the hose didn’t work very well. So, went to Home Depot and got a hose from there and worked like a charm.

What do you mean by two different locations?

Two defenders, two houses.
