stu, it is not the same thing,trust me, a few on here thought that a few months ago wheh i mentioned it, if you use an ordinary bike clamp, you will not acheive the same workings, just want to say, if anyone trusts my judgment , this will save you loads of time, so simple yet, yet one of the best wfp devices to come on the market,

There's too much choice on the website.  Which one would be suitable for an SLX working with an external pole hose?   ;D

when I say ages I mean never, or almost never, I honestly can't remember the last time I changed the angle, I stand closer or further away to change the angle, but I suppose if you do it would be great

I used a spare SLX clamp & bolt. I agree it does save time & is easier to adjust. I adjust mine lots of times during a day. ;)

i was the same as you stu, so is everyone come to mention it, but when you have the flipfast on, you use it more often, because it is so much easier to adjust,
its convienient,  thats the simplest way i can put it, buy a couple of them, and i 100% will guarantee you will love it,

great you have used that idea, but this is different, if you think what you are using, is good, try the flipfast, nothing like it anywhere,

I don't see how Jouk, they both release & tighten the angle adaptor by moving the lever. Infact, the slx clamp is much smaller & neater.

I've ordered a couple. I change the brush angle on just about every house I reckon.

i very rarely change the angle of my brush.only time i do is when im reaching over a deep extension or flat roof.i could do with a long angle adaptor for conny roof cleaning though.

does is not add more weight at the end of the pole?(i already have the added weight of aqua-dapter)

How about?

They aren't made of stainless steel so have noticed a bit of rust developing, but these are brilliant. The only place you can't use them is working between jouilet balcony bars.

they are both a level that release the angle adapter, the only difference is one is smaller and plastic, the other is metal  ::)

Hi Jouk,

I got my two flip fasts, and they're brilliant; well worth the money.  I love 'em.

Thanks, mate.

A highly recommended bit of kit.

Am I being totally dense but I use the normal plastic jobbies and have them set slightly loosend so I can adjust them by just moving it to the angle I want whilst on the ground and when the brush is up on the glass I can adjust in on the fly at height using pressure.

So this item seems a little redundant (no offence meant to the company)...don't get me wrong I'm sure it has it's place but I cannot see a need.

Cheers
Dave.
