Electric sprayers-Plug in vs. Batt powered
- Thread starter Able 1
- Start date
I am looking for efficiency, and no pita factor... What do you think?I'm looking at the multisprayers, kind of looks like a pita with the clearance at the top of the jug??? Or no?

I have a 2 gallon electric mult. Sprayer. I have had it for a year or 2 and no troubles except needing a prime every now and then. Ace has the battery version , I like the plug in . I have been looking at the masterclean sprayers
I have a battery Multi-Sprayer for prespray and I ordered another last week for protector only.
I at least doubled the output of the one I use for prespray by replacing the stock pump with a Shurflow 8009 and replacing the wand with a pressure-washer gun with a #12 jet. I can apply two gallons of prespray in about forty seconds. The pump is on-demand, so it only runs when you pull the trigger. And the gun valve is variable, so you can apply it slow or fast.
I like the flexibility of the 2-gallon jugs. Just mix up as many as you need and swap them out as you go. With a fixed-tank or single-tank design, you have to stop spraying and mix up more when the tank is empty.
The Multi-Sprayer is also more compact than others I have seen. No problem to carry two of them in a van.

Te Multi is still one of the best made.
It's only draw back is tank capacity .
as far as mixing, stop at the gas station and grab some free paper funnels .
Cut or tear a bit off the bottom to widen the opening
You can keep one in each jar of powdered stuff .

With a TM it will always be a Hydroforce type sprayer.
I have used the hudson battery sprayers and they were really good for the price....even better for the price.
I've been looking at the rocket sprayer.
Right now I'm using a keg sprayer and a car tire pump.....Works amazing. I hooked a pressure sprayer gun from Northern Tools and a 3ft hose from it.
Fill it about 3 1/2 gallons and leave 1 1/2 gallons of air......80 to 100 psi and it's good to go.
The Black n Decker air compressor can hook to a cig lighter in the truck or to the AC plug in the home.

Pretty close to the set up we used to use with Chem Dry years ago.
T Brevick has a video somewhere of him using one.
I think the total set up was probably around $125.00
Bought the keg used from Jay D
Got the connectors online for $20 or so
The pumps was $30 I think
The gun was probably $50 :shock: I bought a bunch of tips.

Corded Multi-sprayer is my sprayer of choice daily. I have a Mytee Big Boss, but only use it on large commercial. Way too big to lug around daily. I have owned several battery multi-sprayers, but the batteries die and the replacements don't last long.
I have both electric and battery powered multisprayers and I prefer the battery one just because of no cord to plug in.
But the battery is an issue. I have better results coming home and charging with a car battery charger set on low.

probably not.
It's cold that fck's 'em up most if they're not CONTINUALLY on the charger
"And even if it was plugged in "
which suggests to me you don't ALWAYS have it plugged in when not on the job in use .
You should get a good year and half to two years of daily use IF you keep the damn thing plugged in ALL-DE-TIME, day and night when not in use..
That was my average (couple years) when we used one daily for YEARS

I have a Omni
I changed the pump, little more output ~$130, and changed the battery, $40 also with more capacity.
What else is there to change? I hook it up to a car battery smart charger to trickle charge it and good to go.
