I buy this without much research and am reading the connection between the two could be a problem. Any insight appreciated. The last post about this was many years ago.

Joe,
Don't know what kind of problem they are referring to. I have that set up and it works fine. Just run a hose from one to the other.

It was a problem, but I solved it by luck. The part that should go to the vacuum port was slightly too big. I had read about this in those early posts from several years ago. I was scratching my head on how to buy some PVC part and turn it down slightly to make an adapter. I took the end of the old vac hose from my dead vacuum, and it was a perfect fit to my Fein hose and also the the vacuum.

Rockler sells vacuum hose adapters that work well with the Turbo II (I have one). Used to come in a kit with an expandable hose, now also available separately. I have yet to find anything that I could not adapt to.

I'm using a Dust Deputy with a Fein Turbo I. The stock hose supplied with the Dust Deputy fits right over the intake fitting on the Fein. It was a tad loose, so I added a simple hose clamp to secure it. Going strong for a couple of years now. Still on the original Fein bag, and haven't even needed to clean the filter.
