600psi.
I have a 1800psi ryobi that I bought for about $100 a few summers ago when I needed to wash my parents camper and I was away from my nice gas one. It has way more power, and easier to use as it doesn't have a garden hose attached to it. I'll spend the extra few mins setting it up for the power and lighter setup.

The one really nice thing about the battery version though.....at my buddies boat we do not have access to power. I can use the battery powered spray gun with the included hose attachment that is designed to drop into a lake or such to clean the boats real quick.

 

That makes sense. I didn't even think about the fact that you'd have the garden hose to manage if you're doing the cordless version. I think I'll save the hassle and headache and pickup the $100 one at Home Depot. Thanks for your two cents, friend!

 

Picked up a 2 gal compressor at HF on sale $40 bucks off , and got to use the truck.

 

I picked one up recently and got rid of my Craftsman 12 gallon. Deafening doesn't even begin to describe the sound the Craftsman made. It's astonishing how much quieter the Fortress is.

 

I have a shed attached to my garage. This summers plan is to run electric out into the shed and put a hole for the air hose. My compressor isn't crazy loud, but quieter is always better.

 

Decided I didn't like the big assed hook dangling from the fairlead.



The hook just wouldn't stay flat to the fairlead like a flatlink.



So I decided the Apex thimble was an easy fix. The connecting pin on the thimble is at least twice as thick as the connecting pin on the hook that comes with the winch.

The thimble is pretty dang nice. I cant speak to the actual metallurgy but the finish is every bit that of Factor55. We'll see how it holds up.

 

Driver just called and box should be in my garage by the time I get home…..

 

Delivery has been made…..

 

I love that color. Looks fantastic

 

Thanks

 

this thing was no joke to get off the pallet with it weighing in at 600 lbs but it was doable…..

 

Now it will be built into garage cabinets coming in September

 

Very nice!

 

Happy birthday too me from Janet

 

Kitchen drain clogged after cooking brunch on Sunday. Tried to snake it for a couple hours, no luck. Used a lye drain cleaner, no luck. Boiling water, vinegar, baking soda. Nope. Get up early today and spend 3 hours with the snake but got nowhere. The thing would go about 6' in and hit a stop. It would come out clean as new every time, not a drop of sludge on it. After lunch I decided to throw a hail Mary & pickup this HF clog douche thing. Wasn't sure it wouldn't burst my pipes but either way if this thing failed I'd be paying a lot more to get this resolved. Had my girlfriend (wo)manning the spigot outside, wiped dish soap on the bladder and got it in all the way to the threads. Hooked up the hose & had her do half turns every 10 seconds or so. Water gushed out the first few turns but then it swelled up and sealed. Less than 30 seconds later I hear the whooshing of water down the pipes. Let it run for a couple minutes and took it out. Put everything back together and the sink drains better than it ever has in my 16 months at this condo. Best $9 ever.

 

I just picked this up yesterday, and I have to say that this thing is Solid!!! I picked it up for $99 in the sale this weekend.

 

Anybody use this metal detector? Tired of hitting nails with my chainsaw
