Title: Best Backpacks.
Post by: Wickerman on September 07, 2009, 10:28:41 am

Am looking at a shurflo backpack but there seems to be a lot of messages about electrics etc. Matt had had mentioned a hundred quid one and was wondering if anyone new about that before forking out £270 on a shurflo. Also best poles for up to 4m

£270 for a shurflo b/pack, sounds about £100 too dear ?
 best pole for every day use is the 18ft slx from gardiner pole systems.

I have a WCW backpack and it is brilliant all you need from a back pack, battery lasts approx 10 hours on one charge.
It holds 16 litres and has a good flow rate. it has a pressure swith too.  I use my back pack more than my van mounted lol
When i bought the back pack I also bought a 17ft unger pole from the WCW too and that is the most used pole now.
