Hi Mate,

Love the way you keep winding us BPers up

Where are you based? I'm in Lincs 15 miles south of Grimsby

I'd love to see if Van mount or Backpack is better on Houses??

How about a challenge:

My Backpack setup - your van mount.  A street of houses simular.
Set of.  See who is easier?

I`d love that challenge on most of my work,do you know how many windows you can clean in the time it takes you to refill your backpack,your trying to compare a vanmount with backpack down a row of terrace houses and even then the vanmount would win on the fronts.

[Wayne Thomas]

They should hold the competition at Windex for all to judge.

[steve a]

[groundhog]

OK where is the venue I'm well up for it!! who's gonna sponsor me coz I'm a dead cert to win!!!!

[groundhog]

Looks like the Backpackers have bottled it!!!

[Spursboy1972]

Well groundhog. I am in hampshire and a backpacker. I am not going to do your work though. Needs different types and then we would see.

Example. For a large commercial I too would use the truckmount but for 90% of my domestic I use the backpack.

i have van mount, backpack and omni trolley. i think everyone of the above mentioned can do a certain job quicker than the next....horses for courses friends!!!

[richyp]

salket looks like that kid off the munsters....nice hairline pal

[groundhog]

Well groundhog. I am in hampshire and a backpacker. I am not going to do your work though.

I'm not doing your work either, I should have guessed that you were a Scummer!!! 

[billygoat]

well at least your not a SCUMMER then Groundhog

[Spursboy1972]

Oh dear a SKATE!!. Now that really explains everything. The snide remarks, the low level of brain activity and the fact that you are so obviously an ameoba!

[D.Salkeld_Ltd]

I'm not trying to be clever and think that ME and MY Backpack can wash you Vanmounts away

Although, on varied domestics, I think I could

I just wanted to compare the 2 systems....................................
In fact why not add in a trolley system?

At a trade show would be good.  It may give us and newcomers an idea of the pros and cons of each system.

Bear in mind I have my Backpack set up on a rack so I can fill up and put it on quick and easy.  A turn round time from window to window of, on average 3 minutes.
Thats 1 minute to get back to trailer.
15 secs to drop of backpack.
30 secs to fill
15 secs to put backpack on
and 1 minute to return to job.

Note, this is average. The travel times may vary but I have sorted my round so as to reduce to a minimum.

Dave I would love to take you on ( maybe love is the wrong word) 3 min is a long time. Less than 1 min  is what I aim for in practice for a refil. How about me and you have  a backpack competittion between ourselves to make the others blush.
But I  may be a weakling, I only carry and use 10 litres so maybe not up to your standards. 
I carry mine round in a suitcase so anyone up to it at Windex or a suitable street ?

Ha ha! I know you don't mean it really Tony!! I won't hold it against you that you are a Scummer! I have to be careful what I say as my sister has recently moved to Scum, and I may have to visit her sometime!

First of all ground hog i would like to make a comment about back pack V’s  van mount,
I have both but my preferred method is my van mount, the reason for this being is unlike TonyG  i do not have the physic to carry a load on my back, (Tony does he’s a big lad) i only use it on jobs that have access issues. I’m not getting into a war about which system is better as each individual will prefer his/her own personal method and at the end of the day they both do the job they are designed for.

PS
 Tony is not a scummer as you have stated, on the contrary, he’s a really nice guy.
