my one packed up at Christmas and it was only a year and a half old,  cant be bothered to replace it.  if I cant reach it with 100M hose I am not going to clean it.

9ah will last a good bit longer, hardware express best for battery's I have found.

I use backpacks all day every day. Now on number three! I find the batteries go after a time. I always charge after a days use overnight. When I see the money earned from using them I cannot moan at having to replace a battery now and again. Usually pay around £18 for a 9a/h.

Do you have a flow control on them by using a tap to return some to tank or you just have them full on from switch
