You either have to keep returning to a garage or carry a portable compressor (which needs charging up the same as a "normal" system) so I guess the only benefit is eliminating the pump.
Maybe there are other benefits but I can’t see them.
It seems like someone has tried to reinvent the wheel.

Post by: LWC on December 16, 2010, 07:53:43 am: Daz its just a different idea. If it works for them brilliant, its not about scrimping. This might be handy for the odd window here and there.

Not being funny mate, yeh your pure freedom trolleys nice but you paid alot of money for essentially a sack truck, pump and a battery.

Ive done window cleaning for a long time now and have been WFP for coming up to 5 years, eventually you just get the whatever works attitude.

I have one pump running 2 reels, everyone says dont do it but it works and i dont care. I have hozelock reels and use harris poles, and you know what i still earn the same with a 2 man system taht cost me about £300!

So hush thy mouth dude ;D ;)
