    That`s pretty cool. Would probably work really well as a Rinsless station assuming you can dial it down a bit. I probably use more water than that bucket could hold on any traditional 2 bucket wash using the pressure washer for a pre wash rinse and then a foam cannon and a follow up rinse. I wonder how long the battery charge will last?

    Wow, 1160 psi is more than enough for car washing. That would be nice for heated garages in WI/MN winters. Fill a few 5 gallon buckets inside with hot water and blast away the snow boogers. Followed up with a RW.

    Would be nice to use as a dedicated spot free rinse filled with distilled water too. Curious about battery life too.

    I looked at reviews and I`m really impressed with the features and specifications. It can connect directly to a hose so you`re not limited by the bucket size. The battery lasts about 20 minutes on the highest pressure setting which is adjustable, so you can dial it down for rinsing and extend its life.

    Spare battery is pricey



    Thinking wheels and wells when the snow hits.

    I would love this. In Palm Springs they don’t want you using hoses and soap etc I use just ONR and a bucket.

    There should be an optional AC adapter. The majority of the time you could get your washing done in 20 mins, but I`d hate to be stuck in a rinsing portion of my wash and have a battery die. And at $120 for a spare that is a huge turnoff.

    I`ve always been curious who "Polices" the car washing restrictions? I picture a parking enforcement vehicle, probably a Prius.

    If I lived in your area I`d sneak out at 2:00 am and wash under the lights. Guaranteed the night-shifters at your local police department will not be running lights and sirens when Gladys Kravitz down the street calls you in for violating.

    Looks really cool. Price is a tad steep but I`m tempted. Really wish it had a cord. Being in an apartment, not having access to a hose is the only reason I don`t have a pw. The tank part of it is huge for apartment dwellers.

    $120 is for the 5.0Ah battery; there is a 4.0Ah for $100. Target (at least the online store) has them, but there must be cheaper sources out of China.

    Water usage restrictions where I live are handled by the Code Enforcement Division of the city. They drive around (yes, in Priuses) and issue citations for violations, $250 for the first offense, with increases thereafter. The city also encourages reports of violations by phone or e-mail and promises to send an enforcement officer "as quickly as possible" to document the violation and issue a citation.

    $250 and up fine, emailed complaints, stealthy Prius code enforcement. I`d get that battery operated Sunjoe and wash in the 4th amendment protected comfort of my garage. And vacuum up the water with my shopvac

    Lol true. I have my business so I’m more careful. ONR has been great
