I may be a bit bias. But i have beem working on improving wand ergomatics for quite a while now. My thoughts- You can tell it was built by an engineer instead of an end user. It's a pivoting lever on top of the wand that wraps around the tube and activates the valve under the wand with a finger on the lever. They are getting closer. But, still no cigar. It us however a massive improvement over their former gun grip monstrosity.

Mytee only has it in prototype now. But, it is said to be at Ice. Fred mine is coming out. Its a ergonomic kit for 1.5 & 2" wands. I have parts coming in every week. It has several improvements over the " Power Grip."

They did improve the Bentley. For one you can lock the swivel now. I think the jets are now adjustable like those older Vietnamese wands.

I am very curious about the grip on the new Mytee Bentley. In all honesty the grip has me a little??? The reason I say this is I don't know how you will hold and operate it without applying grip pressure without triggering the solution.
I also can see they went to cast ss head...like PC quad that is good but also very heavy??
I looked into ss for my swivel but the ss was very heavy, like I said I am really excited about seeing it because it has caught my eye and raised questions so it will be good to actually see it.
