I have hardly any problems with access at all, and if i come across something awkward i just fetch a hose reel from car, that happens max twice a week at mo, but thats my work and it works for me

That's my point It's what works for you and your jobs. To say "i dont understand why people do this, if your gonna put a backpack on a sack truck why not just get a trolley? " is a sweeping statement. I tried a sack truck for a while and it was a hassle with my work. Maybe I should get better work

i still cant though, i cant imagine holding less than 50 litres, i cant see the point in using a backpack unless it just comes out the van every now and then for difficult access stuff etc, but if you want a portable system i would go for a trolley, hold more water and it would suit this guy in soft water area to have di on would make life really simple, then i would suggest he covers his bases for access issues by either getting a backpack as well or a length of hose, ?
sorry mate not tryin to sound funny jus not seein the backpack way of life, looks like a big strain on body etc, then people say jus stick it on a sacktruck and that makes me think you might as well have a trolley

Andy, Suppose it's like the rest of life, there's no one answer or should that be

the backpack can be 3 in one, if done correctly, carry the bpack on a trolley, easily  removed the bpack for hard to accsses areas where the trolley cant reach, the backpack can be kept filled so if needed can be used, the trick is sit the back pack on top of the 25ltr water container, the bpack sucks the water diredtly from the containers, this way your not refilling at all, only if you use the bpack itself, look at the link i put up

yes it does, i did mine diffrently, drilled holes in the plastic casing brought 2 bits of hose into them, then added snap conectors, this keeps the same circulation, but when you take them apart the water never leaves the packpack, you just keep an extra 4 ft length of hose with the matching snap female connector, this will be your permenent suction hose,
