Hi Mike

Here is the email from him:-

I’m selling it to try and release some cash, apart from the fact the good old  Tax Man want’s a contribution from me....Spring’s coming and I want my bike pukka....if I can sell it, I’ll be able to get a Facelift pole...carry on with the commercial (2 new contracts today) and do the other stuff too....just shifting finances about really...nothing sinister....lol...

Yes it is really light, and reaches 50'

Hope this helps Mike.

Brush assembly weighs <2lbs, each section weighs <2lbs so 50ft is 8x6ft sections = 18lbs/8kg or 8 bags of sugar.

Yes modular poles in the pic that twist to lock, interesting that they are shown with an applicator instead of a brush. That would be slightly lighter. But I wouldnt consider 8kg light at that height.
An F18 is a 16 with a 1x 2m extension. Confusingly the actual height is ..............48ft or 15m

Have a look on Matts site under "Featherlite Merry Christmas" look in section 3  lets try a link to it ? http://d.co.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=412
But I class them as instrumentsyou can not roughly knock them about, but they are very very light and the 16m cuts down to 42ft.
