Cliff I use jubilee clips reuseable and easy to get hold off.

Also finding cable ties more and more handy for pole hose and stopping any leaks from back of brush, Y piece.

Ps. how's the round buiding up? ;)

Have heard that about split relays :'(

Don't need that do you.

Glad to hear it's buiding up.

Great time of year for picking up work. ;)

We still do this. If you click on the image or the 'More...' text under the single ear, inner ring O clips it will open up a page that list the size that each clip fits.

17 - 20mm is the size that you will need. Most 1/2" reinforced hose is about 13mm ID and about 18mm OD.

Something wrong there. It should keep you topped up all week easy even if doing very little mileage. Trickle charge at weekend or when you get chance. Unless a combination of your running pump or pumps flat out or near to, and/or a crap battery.
