Title: Does this battery / electric sprayer look okay?

if not can anyone suggest another around >£100 give or take.

also, does it cover area's at a much quicker rate, I.E laying the spray out of the bottle.  Or is the only benefit not having to manually pump?

I use this one with no problems but I think Paul moss suggested a better one a few months ago.

We have one of these which we got from Nick VW a good few years ago.

Brilliant sprayer which is still going strong  would buy another one but not for £700.00 that I have been quoted from the importer in Holland.

Hi I have had several different models over the years. In my opinion you have to treat them as a consumable item ie 12 to 18 month life span. You always have to replace the lance they are supplied with as they are crap !! Currently using a spargo model of ebay £67.00 16 litre. Seems ok. And yes when working well they are all way much better than a manual pump up. Good Luck.

I've used these type of sprayers for years. The lances are crap but you just replace it. The pumps are £25 to replace so they tend to last for years.

Can't remember where I got my battery sprayer from but it is bright orange.  The lance was rubbish and the crappy hose didn't like hot liquid and deformed.

I just got a decent length of reinforced pvc tube and use the lance that came with my IK9 pump up sprayer.

Other than that it comes out about once a week and after two years it is working well.

Like everyone has said the lances are rubbish I cut them off and fit a QC then just connect a lance or hand sprayer depending on what I'm cleaning(http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/1452769188_image.jpg)

i use this 1 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sherpa-SXMD16E-Deluxe-16L-Cordless-Knapsack-Sprayer-/321673818275?hash=item4ae540f0a3:g:TFwAAOSw~1FUYdvo decent and charge last for days. You will find though as said before you end up spraying a lot more down than you would with a pump up. Steve swinney done a video of how he converted his with better hose and qc.

Yeah but he doesn't say what pump he replaced the original one with.

I use this one and find it great for large areas because you can wheel it around and don't have to hump it.

The one above is excellent value for money.
Variable speed and battery lasts forever.
Tried to order one in December and he had run out till mid January he said.
Looks like he got new stock in.
