V-lite poles from aqua dapter
I will be buying some.
-
Be good to hear a review , aqua adaptor will obviously be easily attached and I hope the clamps will be good . Got to be better than some clamps already out there .
Good for competition ?
The aqua adaptor is well engineered so the pole should be good

Yeah, lets at least hope that something gets close- rather than just "hype"! ;D

Why are they great?
What advantages do they have over the competition?
-
I doubt they will but if they came with an aquadapter attached that would me me buy them

hi guys, as im just starting out in wfp coming from trad, ive been wrecking my mind looking for a pole these last few weeks and i had a chat with mark m and he says theyre going to be great poles and i even got the prices off aquadaptor from an email i sent and they do an option that does include the aquadaptor if you want it.
myswelf i bought an clx22 as my first starter pole as i couldnt wait any longer and from previous posts on various forums these v-poles have been coming out since oct??
my plan is to wait and see what everyone thinks of them when they do come out and i'll let the main guys be the testers for now lol and i'll stick with a reliable known branded pole like a gardiners.
will be interested though to see whats so special about these new poles that theres alot of raving going about them?
-
>windiewasher
Again, whats so great about them that you are going to buy "some"?
-
Seems like a marketing ploy by AquaDapter, to get a couple of guys off different forums to 'BIG-UP' the poles to gain interest for if/when they do eventually go on sale.
How can anyone state they are 'great poles' and that they'll 'buy some'....when they haven't even held them in their hands.
Obviously the poles will get positive reviews from the chosen reviewers, which is all too obvious when you read certain posts on different forums relating to these poles.
No doubt they'll get to keep these poles too....free of charge....for an honest independent opinion ::)roll.

Cynical?
Probably
Correct?
Probably
;D ;D ;D
Personally, if they gave me a pole to review I would be perfectly honest - carp pole gets a carp review and good pole gets a good review - regardless of whether they gave me the pole to keep or not! No I don't want a free one to review lol
Integrity - sell it and you might as well sell your soul
Cheers, Tom

The VLITE won't be far different than most poles
1- carbon sections will be as light as gardiners
2- the clamps HOPEFULLY can't be much worse
3- the aqua adaptor should fit snug
4- price should be similar
So it should be a good pole
ITS ALL ABOUT THE CLAMP OPERATION AND DURABILITY , as the sections and brush will be very similar to any other top brand
-
Aqua adapter arnt doing a very good job of marketing them if they're out soon, there's nowt on their website. ::)roll
-
I can't find any information on their new poles. Can anyone point me to some website info, so I can have a look for myself?
-
They have a new website that the old one should direct you to I think

Thanks Kempy found it. Unfortunately no info on poles or pricing. Never mind!

If I had a great pole, then I'd be telling as many people as I could how good it is; facts and figures, weights and closed lengths etc. I'd try and get as many advance sales as I could. But that's just me!

Yeah this post is the first I have heard of it - not a good marketing strategy - unless Kempy and WindieWasher ARE the marketing strategy ;D ;D ;D

Right I will say looking at them they are the same as gardiners with yellow clamps.
They are all made in China.
In the past I mentioned selling poles which when I thought about it wasn't going to.
However Alex has banned me from buying anything from him unless I sign affidavit to say I will never sell poles ever,which I refused to sign.
So from that I will be renegotiating with a supplier from China in the new year and will sell them.
-
Ummm , harsh
I love my China Pole ,

Why did you change your mind in the middle & what made you want to sell poles again?
-
I need to replace my 2012 slx gardiner clamps soon , I've done it on my old 30ft slx with the new upgrade ones but there not very good even with the loctite bolts I got sent .
Great for stopping the spinning sections on my old slx , but the operation of the clamp not the best but I can put up with it .
Will need to buy the upgraded ones for my 2012 25ft slx but the £30 is annoying as it's not a perfect upgrade unless they have been tweaked again ??

the reason was too busy and thought carry on with Gardiner but after having orders cancelled and being tried to be forced into signing a affidavit to say I wont sell poles ever sort of tells me to do it as im not being bullied into signing anything.

Obviously I'm not bothered either way but...
Are you just selling poles cause Alex tried to tell you, you can't?
If so, it seems a bit if a faff...?
If things have changed and you can make a few quid without any negatives-fair play to you.

There's a couple of other people on other forums/facebook etc , saying how good these poles are, and that they will be a 'game changer' and even 'best pole available' ::)roll.
What a load of bullshyte >:(, these so-called reviewers haven't even seen/held or used them, so how can they be making such statements ???.
-
I have wanted to do it for a while,maybe alex has pushed me into wanting to sell poles.
I dont expect to sell thousands but a few here and there and I will be happy.
Hoping to go into it with a business partner.

All I said is they are meant to be available next week and might buy a couple and sell all my gardiner poles until I start selling my own.

All sounds a bit odd with Alex. Is that why you have posted this topic, to get back at him?

With regard to the Aquadapter poles that are about to be released (and the ones currently on eBay with the same clamps) they are not the same as Gardiners, whilst they may look similar to our clamps, it would appear from examination that they do not actually work in the same way as the smart clamps (Patented technology) and so will not adjust to the pole as it wears during its life.
With regard to your other comments you & I both know exactly why we are currently not supplying you with our pole products.

yes because I mentioned on here that I was going to sell them and then when you cancelled my order at the time wasnt going to sell them.
so you told me to sign affidavit to say I won't ever sell poles?
Is that correct Alex????
-
go on,windiewasher spill the whole beans about this,how can it be possible to be barred from shopping?unless you were a worried supplier of course/if so thats petty
-
hi guys, i had an email back from aquadaptor with a price list but cant find it on my compute but prices where generally on par with the likes of gardiners but they was just the poles, if you wanted an aquadaptor i think they was around an extra £20 and then there was brush and swivel neck too.
i'd just send them an email of theyre website if your interested, as i say for me i couldnt wait unfortunately and went for a tried and tested clx and the fact that alex is always on the other window cleaning forum i go on and is very helpful!

Whilst I do not think that this is the place to discuss legal business between us, I could quote my original email to you of the 13th of December and your inability to answer it (and several other email questions) in a straightforward manner or transparent way. Are you happy for me to quote the contents of these exchanges publicly or shall we leave it at that?
