Just wondering if any of you guys use these remote controls for window cleaning and if so are they any good

I used remote for a while and went to aqua adapter. I just found that they don't stop water flow dead as you still have remaining pressure in pipes. Maybe some guys on here have rigged theirs up better. I even tried with a solenoid off of my di canister but with the same result. Pressure built up in hose takes time to level off so water still flows for a while.

I use a 'one shot' remote, it's amazing, stops the pump at the touch of a button, pressure stops in hose within 3 seconds, means I save so much water, and my pump is used less, as in between windows and extending pole etc, my pump is off, then at the touch of a button it's back on instantly. Can't fault it. Works up to 100meters. Dramatically improves pump, battery and water life.
