Usually out of stock, not sure they were ever in stock and no one here or other forums have mentioned buying one

That reply is so inspirational to either buy one or look into it further.

And it's 'They're in stock'.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

they are instock now at last.
Hi darran,
the v-lite has a different clamp lever to the exceed version, the v-lite version you adjust the clamp by rotating the arm, the exceed has thumb adjustment and yes the flipfast is the same as mark munro, reviewed. I will post the specifications here later this evening.

They are rubbish. They are heavier than list weight and don't look very well made. Too long when closed and they have the awful clamps from the xtel range. Basically the same poles in a different colour. Just as bad as the heavy weight poles previously sold.

Would only use as a barge pole not suited to everyday use for window cleaning. IMO

How can they have the same clamps as the xtel range? The vlite or what ever it is called has lateral clamps

Wow, that's some review - how long have you been using a v-lite?
And you say "don't look very well made" could you clarify

It would be best to get your facts right before posting such bad reviews on an item! Its extremely unfair on the manufacturer!

I used xtel poles for about 3 years or so and never had a problem with the clamps.
