CRAP...........depends where you work, i.e. on building sites requires a 110 volt system otherwise you can run 240 from indoor source with PCB or connect up with a 5Kw generator and use it in the pouring rain which is the main reason I would like to use the system in the first place for wet weather jobs.

Hi Mate

How did you get on with wet leaves etc. Does it suck them up ok?

Did you find the camera useful?

I think you are being a wind-up merchant mate  ;)

Maybe you could elaborate on WHY you don't like it?

Thanks mate. Ionics do a similar machine. No camera though. They use clear tubes to see if you are getting anything. Combination of the two might be good?

I am supposed to be getting a demo from Steve Peel in the new year. Will be interested to see it working.

i agree with that comment, i would prefer a clear tube, however by lifting the lid you can see the cr*p in the cylinder

 One reason for joining forums like this is to canvass opinion on issues which may effect your business. i am one of many considering this kit so if you have nothing sensible to say then dont bother, if you wish to add negative points then support them with your reasons.

When you are thinking of investing to this level then you need genuine advice not bull

I got sucked into arguing with cherubs, but that's the last retalliation from me as I too am also interested in gutter cleaning although it is a lot of money to invest and I want to hear other peoples opinions who have used both Ionics guttervac or Omnipoles Omnivac so I make the right decision for myself.

I use an old carpet cleaning machine. Bags of suction, designed for sucking 8rap up and will easily do 3 storey buildings.
Attach suction pipe to any pole and away you go.
Hi Neil,
Where did you get the Hoses and Suction pipes ?, any Pics. Terry

The machine is a Woodbridge Powermate. The hose is a standard 1.5 inch suction hose I use 2 of these joined together to get the height.
Get a piece of suitably strong metal to create the bend at the top so that the hose when attached to it bends downwards. Attach all this to the prefered telescopic piping of your choice but it wouldhave tobe strong to hold all this. A Brodex F/G won't do soI use the omnipoles.
I will try and take some pics on Monday.

We all get rattled from time to time, after all we're all only human apart from Mr Solubility (only joking ;D ;D ;D).

Jerry, did you use the omnivac with the original Omnipole pressure washing pole which was converted as an omnipole for guttering, because the newer version has wider inner diameter pole. (Basically one wide pole slots into a narrower pole, then a wider pole, followed by a narrower pole to keep the internal diameter wider, if that makes any sense to you.

What output generator did you use out of interest?

Hi Jerry
 I think you bought the omnivac back in March not in September.
This means you have the Mk1 version that used the powerpole do you have the 38mm or the 52mm vac hose?.

How did you bend the PowerPole?
