I quite like the Unger telepole; they're cheap, light and you can add sections.  Try Cleantech, I know they supply them.

Don't get an UNGER pole get the "CLEANTECH" pole. It's an aluminium screw clamped pole same as the Unger but the screw clamps are bigger, better and easier to use.  You can easily replace the inner clamps when they wear out.

I have an 18' CEANTECH pole I use most of the time and a 30' UNGER telepole.
To be honest, using the Unger is awkward as I have to struggle with the cones when extending it - even after replaceing the clamps!

Thanks for the replies guys, just checked my unger pole it is in fact a 15' pole not 18'.
But i am going to have to invest in a 25' or 30' anyway to tackle acouple of flats i picked up recently.
Done one of these last month off a triple ladder and a extension pole with mop/squegee no way will i be doing that again, so i think i will need a 18' for everyday domestic and a 25' or 30' for these flats.
