Hi,

Now that I have a backpack the next item on the list is a telescopic trolly. I have considered some of the trolly's that have been posted on here for about £25-£30, but have decided to spend a tad more for a better trolly. Does anyone know who else sells this type of trolly just so I can compare prices?

I just bought an aluminium one at a market in derby for £20.
Its in machine mart for nearly £60.
It wieghs 4 kgs and is suppose to be good for carrying 90kgs.
I will be useing it for backs with a matabi backpack next week.
I will report how good or bad it is.

Yes i`ve got one in red,folds up very neat and can be laid down with a bigger tank on,and i use it in the back of the van connected to my tank and so i can take it  indoors in frosty weather to protect the pump and charge the battery,Gaz

BONJOUR GAZ !

 I have a 60 L tank on mine and im starting to dislike it already , been thinking about a ramp of some sort for the van , if the tank is any more than half full at the end of a job its a real pain getting it back in the van !

How do you protect the pump from exposure to water Gaz?

It`s a water pump full of water,does it need protecting from water?,Gaz

[H h20]

Rich i only use the 60 litre tank if i know im going to use most of if not all of the water then it is easy to dismantle and lift,other wise i carry a few 25 litre containers in the van,  ,Gaz

I suspected i was heading for something like that?   Are there not any connectors etc that become vulnerable?

Not really,it does`nt really get wet but i have thought about housing it just to protect it from getting knocked,but it is usually in the van 90% of the time working the tank in there,Gaz

So initial question wasn't "entirely" daft then. Reputation still intact........Still there's always tomorrow
