What size tank in the bipper/nemo mate?

I've just put a 450 litre in a berlingo (850 payload) and I reckon that's maxed out, and it's the second van aswell.

will be 400 upright as only 360mm wide compared to 350 upright which is 520mm wide ... will only fill to about 300 or 350 tops. now Ive upped my flow rate actually using a lot less water.

will be tight on payload first few hours if 350 litres loaded

350 litres = 350kg
tank = 20kg
frame = 10kg ??
reel = 25kg
pole, bucket other trad stuff, little giant ladder = 30kg ??
me = 130kg
butty box = 2kg  ;D

total approx 567kg give or take ... payload 650kg so odd day I take 400 litres will be under ... just


pressure washing days then will leave wfp tank empty

Why not get something a little bigger Ian? I've set up a berlinggo, 850kg payload, 450 litre tank, 2 man setup. Wouldn't fit a pressure washer in but it's fine for window cleaning.

just like the look of them .... but having looked at prices of nearly new ones against nearly new berlingo / partner there's no real difference in price bar a few hundred quid

That sounds like a decent compromise Gold, especially for DTM.  ;D Is he getting a better deal because he's family?

He is.

I'm guessing you are mainly domestic? I have a similar set up which is mainly commercial and worked between two and splitting it is actually impossible. 😁

I was about two-thirds domestic and one third commercial - I kept the lion's share of the commercial so the part of my round I do myself is about half and half and the part I rent out to Dan is nearly all domestic.

It's a game of three halves!

Mrs. Captain America's windows are getting filthier by the month! She is of course neither of ours customer. But the road she lives on has been passed to Dan.
