Are you still using SL2 base sections for your gutter vac poles Mr H?

Still using the same ones..... Really lasting well.
I give them a good clean out after every use and spray with PTFE spray inside each pole and the joins about once a month.

still using mine too, must be about four years now at a guess. I remember people said they would wear out from the inside in five minutes - no wear at all.

Well thats prety much what the DIY system is Cliff. Some systems use regular telescopic poles and the suction hose is attached to the outside but that makes it very heavy so can't go as high as a suck through system.
