scrimman, i have tried many times to contact peter, i have a good idea for a trigger that can hold and release the hose automaticly, so you dont need to use your hand holding the hose,

so tell kore juke would be interested in this

I used the auto brush and pole thought it was good. sadly the pole sections got stuck in each other and ultimatly broke. but like another poster I took clamps off my glass fiber pole, clamped the micro bore at the collar and used it like peters pole.  you soon get the hamg of spinning. and I get sick of clamps wearing out, tap pole on window bottom and the section comes sliding down.

there is no way you can adjust a clamped pole as easy as a clampless pole...no way. just needs a few problems ironing out. and when you have a big round half an hour saved in 10 hours is half an hour home sooner

I don't think this concept is acceptable for mainstream wfp, it won't catch on IMO therefore not worth the investment for R&D, manufacture etc.

Look at the auto-brush, interesting idea but useless in practice. There can be a tendancy to solve problems that are created & don't actually exist in real life.


Dam I missed this when it was being aired.

I must admit I had to laugh at Winp®oClean attitude.   I wonder why he even uses a water fed pole? Surely the water fed pole was created to solve a problem that didn't really exist in real life?

With attitudes like that it is a wonder he is still not using a chamois and scrim to clean windows.

The clampless pole is something that will take off in the future, and I have safeguarded my original idea as much as I can.  I did invest quite a bit of time and money in the project, and have it all worked out it, just needs putting into place.

BTW Winp®oClean the Autobrush is one of the lightest brushes on the market, even with the valve fitted.

Tim, it is not just about the time taken to loosen and tighten  the clamps, it is the time saved putting the pole up, and especially down.  The time mounts up over the day, and you would be more likely to save over an hour per day on domestic window cleaning.
