This house is a regular window cleaning contract for us, each year in dec we clean out all the gutters for a price of £150, in the past i did it using ladder and it used to take me 3 hours (big house) today i did it for the same price using my onmivac and it only took me  1 and half hours

I use an old carpet cleaning machine. Bags of suction, designed for sucking 8rap up and will easily do 3 storey buildings.
Attach suction pipe to any pole and away you go.

I'm considering both the Ionics gutter vac or the Omnipole omnivac, plus a camera, MP4 for inspection and to show customers before and after results on CD.
I've seen and held both but don't have any experience using either, (apart from the 36ft Omnipole pressure washing pole) and would be interested in your reasoning why you think the Omnivac is crap.
If you love expressing your disgust for the omnivac perhaps you would care to elaborate as to why you think it's crap as I am interested in both systems and appreciate your thoughts and views if they're constructive so I can make a wise choice as to which one I purchase from other users experience.

One question for anyone who uses the Omnivac system. If you use 240volt vacuum. Do you prefer to arrange a day ensuring your customer is home to be able to plug into their electrics or do you prefer to have the flexibility of turning up in bad weather at a moments notice and simply run your vacuum off a 5Kw generator and include that in the cost of the job?

i never use a genny, i always arange for customer to be in or leave extension lead out,
as for the system, yes it can be awkard at times to use but it is very powerful and does the job.
