peejicky 14 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 I'm trying to put together a hot water system on a shoestring budget. Are any of you familiar with this item that is listed on ebay? eBay: Hot pressure washer on a Trailer (item 260100935738 end time Apr-01-07 07:42:54 PDT) Please list any pros and cons associated with this heater if possible. I simply can't afford a high dollar system like I want and hope that I could make something like this work since its cheap and close. Thanks. Lane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
racechaser 64 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 I have that same unit only mine is 120 volt AC. Mine works great but I can't testify to the 12 volt model. I personally don't believe the whole "it runs on battery" claim. I think you will need a "real" battery charger hooked to up to run it. FWIW if it was in my backyard I'd buy it as a backup if it was cheap. Scott Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peejicky 14 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 Scott, Thanks for the quick reply. If I bid on it and get it, I thought I would put a converter on it and do away with the whole battery idea. Lane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
One Tough Pressure 580 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 They have built decent units for years. Delco had units made by them for quite some time. 12 volt burners are made to be run from batteries. The battery charges from the pressure washer engine, so you need a 20 amp charging system to keep up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
