Karcher Heavy Duty Foam Cannon/ Lance Groupbuy

I am gauging interest in doing a groupbuy for the foam cannon/ foam lance. This unit is the same unit as seen here:

http://autopia.org/forum/car-detaili...highlight=foam

as well as here:

http://autopia.org/forum/detailing-p...highlight=foam

The particular unit i am looking to do the group buy for works with the Karcher pressure washers with the Bayonet style attachments. If you have an electric Karcher pressure washer, you already or should already have this bayonet system already set up on your machine. This means you dont have to do any modifications, replacec your PW gun or hoses. Just attach the foam cannon and you're set.

Now, there is another unit flaoting around, but it is a lil more expensive; primarily because it is a brass unit. This is also available, but not needed if you are running a home graded PW.

Pricing: 66.00 for five orders. Pricing does not include shipping

Remember, this is for the unit shown in the links above, not for the brass unit.

Let me know if you are interested so we can get the ball rolling.

Re: Foam Cannon/ Foam Lance Groupbuy

When will these be purchased, and when will/how will payment be placed. Any idea what shipping on these units will be? I am considering it.

Greg

I would be interested as well. Will these be shipped directly to the buyers, or will it be shipped by you?

Re: Foam Cannon/ Foam Lance Groupbuy

After reading your options, I REALLY only want one if It can be attached to my HD powerwasher, not the homebased units that are electric. The Cannon talked about by SuperBee364 in foam guns are waaay Fun, is better suited for gas powered PW.

So if your putting together a group buy on that unit, then I'm in...........so please post a link or photo of the exact unit your getting for 66$.

Cheers,

Greg
I'd like to make the purchase as soon as possible. I cant really give a shipping price just yet since shipping cost varies.

The units are coming from the UK, so to avoid any problems, they come to me, and then I ship them out.

This is the CamSpray unit that SuperBee has:


This is the Autobrite:


As I can see, the only real difference is the adapter/ tube section section. I will check to see if I can get the unit without tube/ adapter, but I would hazrad a guess that this section could be simply unscrewed, and then replaced with the adapter shown in the CamSpray.

I'll try to have more info for you guys; have to get ready for the "day job".

Re: Foam Cannon/ Foam Lance Groupbuy

If this is for the same unit as the AutoBrite unit, you can count me in.

Re: Foam Cannon/ Foam Lance Groupbuy

I do have the unit and it works well, but if you read the thread there is a big draw back. The soap container is too small, you will drain it in under a minute. The video you see, he has converted it to a 32 oz container. But the ratio is correct 1 oz of soap to 10 oz water. Nice foam using Ziano, Adams and even Mothers soap.
I think it is rated up to 2400 psi, but you may have to double check on that.
