I checked back on the price and noticed that the stock went down ::)roll Hoping someone could have told me what the poles were like before wasting money.

Those 44mm poles had me confused but as with the wfp suppliers stating the reach instead of actual length the '44mm' vac poles will be as below;

Pole specs:

38MM Inner Diameter Smallest End
40MM Outter Diameter Smallest End

42MM Inner Diameter Largest End
44mm Outer Diameter Largest End

To add to the spec the poles are 30% carbon and 70% glass fibre, I don't know how that compares with the grippa V3 poles.

I dug my poles out earlier think they're from carbon fibres tubes and not sure of the carbon content but they are 2m long 51mm internal (at the top) and weigh 620g

I might see if I can add one pole to the 4 I have and just buy a new vac and new hose.
Maybe a numatic cvd900 if anyone has any knowledge of them.

Just for future reference apparently the 3000w gutter sucker motors are made by Soteco which is basically going to be the same vac as I mentioned somewhere before the Viper 375.

Price wise it's a pretty decent package you get with the gutter sucker, 38mm poles, heads, cam, bags and some dvd.
The poles must be very light feeling but my only criticism is the 38mm.

I have to disagree - as 38mm poles are pretty damn useless for any semi serious gutter work you are to an extent just throwing your cash away - 50mm is what you want/need for virtually trouble free vac'ing - maybe the sky vacs at 44mm maybe ok - not tried that size so whether they cut the mustard or not is just an educated guess

Well I'm only assuming it's 38mm and the supplied hose is 38mm but the email I received was "They diameter is 44mm to 422mm as they are slightly tapered" ???
So I can only assume that they've supplied the exterior diameter of the top section which would taper down to a much smaller internal diameter at the bottom.
You obviously have used the poles so will know what size the poles are.

nice little site - I hope CIU don't come along and ban you as a rival or for advertising

It's not an article is it! It's a website advertising one vac with I assume links to the seller.
