Has anybody got any feedback on the Gardiner 19 litre
Backpack.
Thinking of getting one to help a few awkward access jobs.

To be fair, I have only used the Gardiner unit and everything works. It's neat and compact and haven't had any issues! It has an adjustable flow and comes with charger cable.

I like the Gardiner backpack but imo the flow rate even on the lowest setting is way too high. I have had to fit a flow controller on it so that the flow slows down.

that you turn up or down, have you had any leak issues with it?

The wcw back pack has a better flow control than the gardiners .

I haven't had any problem as such with leakage , the only time it leaked was when
I went round a corner to quick and it toppled over .

On the Gardiners one, can you reduce the flow using a little inline tap, or does this ruin the pump?

You can use an inline tap yes as this is what I use on the gardiners ( when I do use it )
Not that I use it very often .
