2 man set up...
« on: June 02, 2011, 04:51:23 pm »
afternoon guys, just a quick one...

Do any of you lot no if you can run 2 pumps and 2 varistreams off one battery, as the varistreams i use have the battery charging feature which charges the system batt off the van batt when the engines ticking over....

Be interesting to no if anyone does it this way as im finding that splitting 2 reels off one pump doesnt always have the desired pressure, especially on first cleans..

Any info/tips welcomed... ;D

Yep!  One leisure battery runs two pumps no problem.  Mine's 115 aph, which means nothing to me.

I did 500 litres in 5 and half hours today lol, and only worked probably 2/3 of that time on glass, need a varistream very soon haha

I cant see 500 litres lasting 2 guys long at all though
