Does it have a feather touch trigger valve? If not, is it a straight replacement or does someone sell a kit to do a conversion?

What is wrong with the Jet angle that Larry Cobbs feels it's necessary to change it?

Larry, do you sell a kit to do both things or do you have to sell it with the wand?

Hi Bill,

While our valve is not a feather touch it is a lite touch and our vendor is working on a new one for us that will be even lighter. On the jet angle Mytee is working on a change. At truck mount type flow and pressure the spray wants to bounce because of the angle. It needs to be a steep angle. As always these changes will be available to our customers we are always working to improve our products.

John, I want to order a TM tank while they are on promotion and so was thinking of getting a bunch of stuff all at once.

Should I wait for the improvements on the wand, or just go ahead and order it with the tank and get the updates later?

Is this "update" to the jet angle going to require shipping the wand back?

No need to ship back it will be a new solution manifold that bolts on.

Will it be similar to the jet set up on the Greenhorn wand? I hate to give that up, but like the shape of the Mytee wand head and the swivel action.

Love the wand. The swivel is nice.. But it doesnt swivel any more. Untill the heat and the steam from the wand heat it up. Then its ok.. My jets hit my glide. Is that where there suppose to be angled at?

Use some teflon lubricant. Those swivels are indestructible. The jets angle is changing and the jets are moving forward.

Bill & John;

We have rotated the jet bar slightly ...
to angle the jets down toward the carpet.

We have been doing that mod for several months now.

Anybody that buys the wand from us can get that mod at no charge.

Larry

P.S. Good to hear that Mytee is making the upgrade for the wand.
That is how good products become even better.

Any truth to the rumor that the new Mytee wand will have 5 jets instead of 4? :idea:

Is there any truth to the rumor that competitors are paying cleaners to suggest changes in the Mytee Wand.

How long can this go on before the wand is useless?

We shot some new video on our Carbon Fiber Wands. You Tube link is below. Please ignore any "verbal typos" - we plan to clean it up a bit more on Monday.

Thanks.

Is the wand in the video the one with the new jet improvements?

When can we order one with the new changes? How can we make sure we get the new changes when we order?

too late, I licensed the Greenhorn design concepts for 7% of sales, they had to raise the New price to cover me.
