Stubby Check Valve surprise..

[Mikey P]

Ive never owned these before.

Didnt even realize they were in my older Devastator.

The springs were broken, ball bearings stuck.in some jets on the wrong side..

Yet the jets still worked so what's the point?

Dev is getting new manifolds..

That's just AMAZING!

I was gonna write "HydraHey, HydraHoe" but realized just in time that it was just the maturity issues talking.

I hated those on my bane wand. Never Kept it from dripping neither.

 

[Larry Cobb]

We don't like them because they distort the jet spray pattern.

We put the check valve/filter at the valve, but it does allow some limited water to drip.

 

[Mikey P]

Agreed.

 

[hogjowl]

You can watch the spray pattern change and shift around if you pull the trigger and hold it. I always figured the springs were spinning inside the jet.

Has anyone made a similar wand to the hydrahoe that's 2inches instead of 1.5?

Prochem has a nice single jet that has a better use angle than the HHoe, That hunk demanded the user be 4 foot tall.
