Tom Conway Devpro Wand, board hype...

[hogjowl]

I don't consider a total head design to be a slight tweak.

 

[Cleanworks]

You probably haven't got head for years now

 

[Mikey P]

Save it for Robsworld


The dick jokes have expired.

Did you just call Rob a dick joke?

 

[BIG WOOD]

A few slight tweaks would make it state of the art, again

If they went back to 4jet instead of 6jet, and installed a decent glide on it similar to the mach glide, it would be competitive to the current wand market.

The Ti belongs in a museum.

nice wand...but way to light..there is just no head weight to help keep them planted onto the carpets....and forget using one on a CGD..it just skimmed over the surface....and because of this the recovery was not all that great..
the vacuum chamber was not any different from any other wand out there...I had 3..and to be honest..once I switched over to the westpac's....my recovery and dry times were much much better...and now after all these years of standing behind my westpac's...thanks to Tom...they have been retired...

 

[Mikey P]

The vacuum slot is designed to be used with out a Glide on the PCTI

It's too narrow in other words



The new wave of wands, especially Tom's, are designed with wide open, gail force inducing openings that HAVE TO used with a glide

Put your machine at 14 hg instead of 12 it makes a difference.

 

[Mikey P]

Jim are you going to get two more Devastators?

 

[SamIam]

On second thought don't you won't be able to push your new wand.

 

[dealtimeman]

Yes listen to these internet gurus and sell me your POS OUTDATED PROCHEM TITANIUMS AS THEY ARE TRASH and they don't even swivel, gosh.

Call me today, I will pay scrap prices for your crap, I pay shipping.

 

[BIG WOOD]

Maybe after all these swivel wands rule the market... The PC titanium will come down to a reasonable price. Just maybe

 

[hogjowl]

I'll sell you mine for $450

 

[Nate The Great]

For $450, I'd shorten that bad boy and use it for a stair wand..... Deals right there....

 

[SamIam]

Now theres a thought

 

[Nate The Great]

Bang out those stairs in Vawters Fi minutes....

 

[hogjowl]

Nevermind.
I'm keeping it.
For now.

 

[Jimmy L]

In 20 years they will be collectors items worth hundreds!

My 20 year old POS 16 inch CASTEX wand will be in the carpet cleaners museum.

 

[hogjowl]

Keeping you company.

 

[Jim Martin]

Jim are you going to get two more Devastators?

I have plans to buy one m ore of Tom's wands around December...or maybe sooner...that huge church that I do booked and I am going to want one for getting in between the pews and everything...I am only running one truck and work by myself...but the guy I had is going to come and help with the church and I will have both running...

tomorrow will be 2 weeks with this wand and I still have not pulled a rotary off the truck......

What device or devices do you keep on board to pre scrub with?

 

[Jim Martin]

What device or devices do you keep on board to pre scrub with?

seeing how before I bought this wand I was always rotary cleaning ..I do not own anything in particular for pre scrubbing..never needed it......a friend of mine has CRB that I can use..but so far I have not needed it...The January show I am going to see what is available there...

 

[Mikey P]

If you clean a lot of greasy/dog hair situations get a 175, a shampoo brush and pad driver and a few colors of pads

if not, get a CRB for grit, sand and hair removal.


I carry both on all three trucks

Either way, both followed by wanding are quicker than RE.

 

[jcooper]

I'll sell you mine for $450

What's wrong with it?

You pay the shipping???

 

[hogjowl]

Nothing.
But since you asked that.
I won't sell it to you.

More likey you will be in the carpet cleaners museum you POS.

 

[Mikey P]

Would you leave to do a route with out a scrubber on board of some sort?




exactly.





Jim went from an RX20 to the HOSS.


I'm guessing this is all new to him.

 

[dealtimeman]

I can see Jim?that guy barely knows how to clean a carpet, he's probably using that devpro in circles to get 360 agitation.

Thank goodness he found this board.
