anyone have one of these.

thinking of getting one/two..

do you have to keep the reel out side, or could i get longer pole hose and just run that from the port.?????
no need to get reels out for some of my work... can i use two reels at same time through the port...

I had one fitted by Brodex, great thing, but waste of money. I haven't used mine for 3 years. Just sits there doing nothing!
Damn heavy when you're lifting the hose reel in and out all day.
Just shut the van door on the hose, doesn't affect the hose in any way!

Yeah they're easy to fit mate. Best to get two then you've always got a spare. Also you don't need to take the reel out the van. We got 100metres of pole hose from gardiners and just plug that in, saves dragging the reel out all the time. I look a bit like a mountaineer going down someones path but you soon get used to it.
 And yes you can use two reels at the same time if you want to, just get a hozelock type 'Y' connector , jobs a goodun.
