dose the pole hose still go up the middle of the sections carrying grit or is this eradicated? Trying to work out if it stays at the bottom or not  ;D

Yes, it still travels up the pole, but still another advantage is each time you reel the pole hose onto your hose reel with a piece of cloth is it keeps the hose clean.

Also mega easy to take the sections apart to wipe sections  down  to keep clean as the pole as no hose attached .

£45 for conversion  seems a lot off money

Compared to what?
I'm not sure you can buy this anywhere else atm
If you took the time to look at the cost of each item, you would see the kit represents good value.
The benefits of  no pole hose, much less over spilt water from the pole hose, longer lasting fitting and the fact Stevon has to make a profit.
It's good value IMO  but it's your £45
Tony
I initially thought it expensive too and was going to buy just the ejector sleeve for a tenner ( I already have run my own tubeless diy version for a year ) but was needing new pole hose and probably new fittings, taking that in to consideration and that  specifically made fittings/adapters would be easier and neater £45 sounds fair to me.  ;)

Having looked on the site it appears to include the vat plus £5.99 shipping, so £50.99.

Thanks Steven for confirming that
If I were to wait before ordering until the uni valve is stocked would the combined postage for both the tubeless kit and valve still be £5.99 ?

so the pole hose will stay on your reel of microbore and you simply plug it into your pole?

so i could just have one pole hose for multiple poles(say 50 feet length to accommodate xtreme 47).

it seems like a good idea but what about changing brushes and goosenecks during your working day?i use all gardiner poles,brushes and goosenecks.

this and the uni-valve could be the ultimate in water control and ease of use. :)
price higher/work harder!

my experience with rectus 21 fittings is they pop off at times.if your tugging the hose a lot to turn your water on/off 100 times a day im not sure how long they will last plus  you ll be constantly connecting and disconnecting it every time you put your pole in the van.if using hot water and the o ring fittings on the uni-valve, i can see them also popping off and leaking inside the pole as its being pulled 100s of times over the course of a week putting extra strain on them.

all these extra fittings on the pole hose inside the pole will cause problems and extra faffing around IMO in real day to day use.

i might be wrong though! :)

It seems like a good idea until you examine it closer, forgetting the fact that all these disconnected poles will now drip
water into the van what is the point of this gadget unless you can only afford one pole and want to add and remove sections a little quicker.

Dazmond, you are right about changing goosenecks, but it is just the carbon goosenecks there will be problems with.
As regards fittings leaking/popping off, this is not a problem, as if you hear what others have said on this forum like Lee Gls, he has had the same rectus 21 for 12 months now since going tubeless.
Water dripping is now not an issue as soon as you disconnect the hose this little bit of water in the pole empties right away leaving it drip free.

Sean, I can answer that for you from my experience having gone to a diy'd tubeless system nearly 18 months ago for that very reason .

The end of the pole has a male rectus fitting, when you remove the hose, hold the pole vertically and any water in it will come out. It isn't a problem.

There is a point to using this gadget if the way you work gives you problems, mine is tangled pole hose and limited space in my pickup ,  and the fact I only use one pole through choice with sections added or removed ( not through any financial hardship ) for me it is an advantage, for you maybe not, the more choice and options that are out there, the better.

Your absolutely right I have room for more than one pole and I don't have a problem with hoses getting tangled while being
stored in the van/vehicle which I could say with confidence would be the same for the vast majority of wfp shiners.
But even if I did have a problem with tangles what's to stop me putting my pole up in the rack with the hose still connected
and just reeling in the lot in pole hose and all.
This is nothing more than an idea that somebody such as yourself might find helpful but to sell it as a product or use it as
a way to sell a pole I don't think so.
