So you turn it on and the pump is running ?

without any hose on it does it pump water ?

silly question you have water in it ?  ( sorry had to ask )

Hi Darran

I haven’t tried seeing if the water comes out without any hose at all. Just going to try now..........

[Suffolkcleaners]

Hi Darran

Just tried and no water coming out at all with no hose on it. I’m assuming the water should be coming out of the front of the backpack?

[Suffolkcleaners]

Ps yep plenty water in there

[Suffolkcleaners]

No hose in. Surely water should just be spilling out of the orange thread attachment as per picture?

[Suffolkcleaners]

Aha. Put a screwdriver in the hole and it seems to have worked. Water coming out of that hole now. Must have been blocked.  Let me try with connections.....

[Suffolkcleaners]

Sorted!!! All working. Attachment on and works a treat. Get pressure also. First impressions are as good as gardiners however whether they will last all day without a charge is another matter as i work  from a backpack. Even if it didn’t last as long still great for an emergency.

Will keep you updated. Cheers Darran 👍

[Smudger]

super.  glad its working for you

Just bought one too, got to be worth a punt at £40.

Just to update, it arrived today, and is ping water through the bottom where the pump is, its also 16 litres not 20 as stated
 which doesn't bother me but not good when advertised incorrectly. So maybe wasn't worth a punt. Awaiting reply from supplier.

Fair play to them, full refund and can keep the backpack.

did you fix the leak ?

Got this one on Ebay about 230 Australian dollars. That's about  126 GBP
18 volt and we made it so we can use Ryobi 18 volt chargeable battery to power it as well.

Hi H-man. This looks a great find for backpack users. Is the pressure good? Also I read somewhere it can last for up to 55 mins continuously so will this not last several houses like the gardeners one?

[Suffolkcleaners]

Just checked eBay and they don’t ship to UK. Message comes up when you try to buy. Are there any other type built in backpacks with wheels on the market?

[H MAN]

Here are the dimensions.
As said battery wise we can use Ryobi rechargeable battery's that we use for drills etc,
We have 5 so no problems in that way.


   

[Suffolkcleaners]

Thanks H man although doesn’t look like you can currently buy them to be shipped to UK. Maybe due to pandemic. Also Amazon won’t ship from Australia either. Will have to keep looking. Surely there must be other similar products on market.

[Suffolkcleaners]

Found this. You can buy trolley on its own but again no idea if any good. Anyone use this or hear of this brand Maxblast?

Sort of, the outlet screw thread part off the pump had a crack in it which upon inspection has now sheared completely off. Ive superglued it and put a bit of pdf tape round it which makes it usable in the short term as i'm just going to use it for spraying virisol to facias but really need a new pump. An exact replica of this pump costs £39 ,so same price as whole backpack but will look round see if theres a cheap alternative.

[Smudger]

you should be able to pick a pump up for about £7 ( a little bit more as I can't see any Chinese sellers ! )

If you want wheels you can always buy a trolley for 15 quid and strap your back pack to it
