I would'nt bother with those,they will last you a few weeks and thats it,heard really bad reports about them,you get what you pay for,go get the Freedom Trolly or something more robust than that girly thing,that is like something you buy your toddler for christmas like those lawn mowers that blow out bubbles. ;D

There was a thread on here or Peter Fogwill's site about them and they had alot of faults.
I think his best bet is a back pack.

The operating system is equal to any other trolley system  usining a very reliable 80psi pump and battery.
The unit would be extreemly reliable had the unit been constructed using just a simple on off switch rather than the five speed controler which can be prone to failure if the internal side comes into contact with water.

hi glyn

leaks
drain plug at bottom, no amount of ptfe tape would stop it,

had to resort to cerefit 101 and tape, done a permanent seal ;D

also had to put new jubilee clips on pump, again leaking :(

the output pipe connecter split< metal connection> :(

done a direct connection to pump, solved problem ;D

electrical connections coming loose

trolley frame rusting,have coated it with wd40 to ease it

the thing is working fine now  ;D,  but i have no confidence in it now

like i said to darren on an earlier post  i wont be buying another

and i should of sent it back really

regards

mike

Ive been using mine for 3 weeks now and love it thinking about buying another one the only thing you have to watch is when filling it the water gets into the flo control but ive been using a 10 litre bucket with a spout on it and had no problems at all.But if things do go wrong the seller on Ebay wont give you a refund or fix it somebody that bought one from Ebay emailed me 2 days ago said his broke after 3 days because water got into the flo control the seller told him he would have to pay £100 for another flow controler.
