Title: Uni-valve
Post by: kempy on December 09, 2015, 07:03:35 am
Can't be long now .
I have 2 aqua-adaptors  atm and will use these until they break
I'll buy 2x Uni-valve after the initial mad rush for them .

My 18ft slx will benefit from this lightweight version and with it being inside the pole it will be great

Should be ready Jan 2016 ???

Totally agree they will all be looking after the bigger customers, I remember the firm I used to work for would jump through
hoops for certain customers and if needs be mess others about to make sure they where looked after.

Very true, the tool guy who is responsible for the making of the tool as his hands in a few pies.
hence making me wait a little longer than i should.
i was told 5 to 7 weeks but is now 12 weeks. but i know theres not much left to do before release.

You'd be better getting a bigger tank in your van so you have more water with you,sorry but I can't see the point in them unless your really struggling for water. Even when I first started WFP I never considered them needed,I did order an aquadapter put it on my pole and took it straight off and sent it back,there hose is good though it lasts years.

So truly you will be in the hose tugger club then peeps.  ;D
That's unless you want to fit a nylon pushfit lightweight type tap on all of your brush hoses as well .
I'm sure Steve also will be able to sell you some if needed.

This is the type of tap I'm on about that can be added to the brush hose for people that sometimes like water control from the brush still like the aquadapters the univalve is replacing.
