Brush with Built in On/Off Switch
« on: May 19, 2012, 01:58:00 pm »
Having a nosey thru Fleabay I came across this brush with a built in On/Off switch?
I have never seen or heard of them, has anybody come across or even tried one of these??

Any links to any more or better info would be greatly appreciated.

Still got one of thsoe in my van. Loved it. What a great innovation that was to use. Its simply been superseded by Mr Gardiners forward thinking.

Fond memories of use it though, you can buy just the switch system and fit it to any brush.

Personally, the Gardiner brushes now are better than the old Hill brushes were. Although I haven't tried the latest brush. I do have a couple of the older Salmon ones though.

And IMHO the Aquadapter is a far better design. IMPO Peter had the right idea, but I never could relate to his on/off slider mechanism. He has since changed it, but I still don't believe it to be ideal.

Thanks for the offer Ian but will stick with my water 'Remotly Controlled' works for me great.
It was just that I hadn't heard of these brushes and was wondering what they were and how they worked, and were they worth a look.

Thanks again guys, more stuff learned thanks to this forum.
