Best Extend2Wash Backpack
« on: September 19, 2011, 12:58:17 pm »
Hi All, Looking to get into wfp via backpack till I can afford a van mount. Been looking on John Hewitts site and narrowed it down to the ESR16 or the BP505. Has anyone used either of these? If so which is the best? Thanks

Which ever one is the same as the wcw backpac, been using mine today and wish I'd got one sooner.

That'll be the ESR16, we have both (WCW & ECR16).

Thanks for the advice, I'm planning to use a small hand trolley to move it about. Do you all carry it or do the same?

carry mine just for awkward jobs

mate up the road uses his on a small sack truck works well for him.

Yes, we're getting one of these to trial before perhaps putting them together in a package:


The Backpack is fine to carry for the occasional window, but if you want to move around a property with it a sack truck makes it easier.

Hi

I just set myself up exactly the same, I went to see John and he kitted me out, very reasonable. Using a 505 and faultless....

Good luck

Cheers

i have that exact trolley , i started wfp with a back pack, ( shurflo) nearly 6 years ago, still got both , and still use them both on a few jobs, where it is easier than using van mount , had to cut a hole in base , to access on off switch on pack , excellent trolley.
