I`m looking for some creative solutions to let me wash my car outside my apartment which has no hose hookup. The product here looks promising and I can find it for $185. The video and the fact that it has been measured at 100psi make me a lot less skeptical. Anyone have an opinion or experience with this?

I got one, but mine is the plug in version, no battery, but it was $40.00 on amazon.



It is ok, does not compare with a regular hose, but better than nothing.



I recommend getting the $40.00 plug in and buying an AC adapter like I did. Total for the unit and the adapter was $80.00.

why not just use a rinseless wash like ONR?

I just enjoy the process of the tried and true bucket wash. It give me a little TLC time with my car!



So you don`t believe that the stream is powerful enough to mimic a household spicket sourced hose? I would think that even something at 2/3 strength of a yard hose would be sufficient, no?
