for those that are interested i think these aqua-daptors are the best yet!!very light and seem sturdier and fit nice and snug with the goosenecks.

ive been using push fit pole taps for the last few months and i find them a pain.yes the pole end is slightly heavier but the ease of use for turning water on and off quickly with minimum faffing wins hands down!! ;D ;D

just cleaned my own windows and 3 of the neighbours with em.

got one each fitted to 22 SLX and 25 SLX respectively.

well done paul and his team for making them lighter and (hopefully)more durable. ;D ;D ;D ;D


regards

Gas style taps are great and durable strapped to a base section. I didn't get on with the push fit ones either. They were too flimsy for my way of working.

I really don't understand why people worry about "the extra weight" it's only what an extra 160 grams!? I've got a pheonix 22 with an aquadapter latest one,  and a pheonix 18 hybrid with an aquadapter latest one, and they are brill. The advantages out way the tiny extra weight by far. I'm 5 ft 4 and 9 stone and I find it easy to manage. Come on guys muscle up!!

It's just the ease over deep connies and single stories where my concerns lay, I took mine off last year due to tennis elbow and was trying to rest my arm and never put on since lol.. For any other time of day yeah the aqua are fast and neat..

Dan. Do you operate the, by pulling the hose then? I use triggers on all my poles and these are double the price of triggers so they'd have to be easier than them to use

dazmond if you bought the lightweight screw thread adapters your aquadapters would be 30 grams even more lighter

I just got a one shot remote and am really impressed so far, it has a fair range even when not in eye shot of the van.
