If it is 38.40, then I don't see it being worth getting over the aquadapter, as they have reduced the weight again, and are a little cheaper now. Not that I have used the aquatap, but it looks like if will be more of a faf to turn on and off, the aquadapter is so quick and easy to operate.

i must admit i thought it was going to be under £30 and as has been pointed out the AD as now reduced weight and price i feel peter may need to think of his price guide

A bit bemused by Peter Fogwill. He does come up with ideas but they do not seem to come to anything - Auto-brush, Clampless pole, Gas heater (known as Fogwash which he has stopped importing). Personally I do not have any great expectations with his latest idea/invention.

Who said every day? I don't work Saturdays and Sundays.

Just makes me laugh, for £40 its worth a try and if its rubbish bin or sell it. We are talking about £40 which could save you a small fortune in resin,water costs etc etc. It its poop then its poop

People harp on about how much money then make on forums and in real life. Yet you get threads like " should i upgrade my 8 year old pole held together with rubber bands and tape" But two days before " Nah i would want £350 for 4 hours work.

I like to save money but isn't time money? I swapped to extreme poles for everything, as just found them quicker and easier. I even use an extreme pole for applying HSC to fascias. Just because its more accurate.

I see how the AD wont loose much to this device as it does look a pain to operate.

But just a bit ??? On too expensive.

I just paid £19 for two fittings for my hose reel. Now thats expensive!

Are there any videos online to see this Fogwill Aquatap in action?
Im tempted to buy one, but I would at least like to see a demo of one working.
I've tried looking on Youtube but didn't find anything.

Sorry,

I did forget about VAT. The price DaQua has it up for is 32.00 + VAT and they aren't available for sale until the 11th November.

The Aquadapter's price is also subject to VAT.

Where the A/D ticks all the boxes as far a water control is concerned, I still think that twisting the pole to activate the valve will have adverse application problems using Peter's tap.

You guys sure make me laugh, complain about peanuts. Buying equipment is an investment, if that equipment makes your job easier and if you can make 1000x more money off of something before it wears out or breaks you need to buy it, simple as.

£38.40, nowadays you can't even get curry for a family of 4 for that.  :)
