Anyone have the Karcher KHB5 ? Noticed they are at Toolstation for £100.
Looks like you have to buy a separate feed hose if you want full portability though

Took the plunge and 'received' a 'Worx Hydroshot' with a 4aH battery for Christmas.  It is just the ticket, the limiting factor is the amount of water available. 2 bikes took about 20 litres.

Even removed the dirty ice build up yesterday.

Was wondering about making up a shorter hose, has anyone done this ? I don't think I will need to stick a filter on the end, but a weight might be useful.

Anyone done this ?

My Mobi-washer is ancient. It still works fine (I’ve replaced the connectors and gun once), even the battery still works (the mains charger died but cigarette lighter still works).

To be honest I didn’t think they still made them as spare parts started getting scarce about 7 or 8 years ago.

Edit - I had the v17 with the rechargeable battery. It’s still going strong and now has Hozelock style connectors and a generic eBay gun.

This will take some beating, looks like only one left at £100.83 on Amazon Warehouse

Seen someone posting on a VW Facebook page a B&Q selling stock off for £50
Shame wasn’t any near me in Glasgow

Worx Hydroshot here, it is very good. Got in on an Amazon Warehouse deal £75.

I would have said avoid that Aldi one up there but 3 year warranty gives a bit of confidence.

Still more likely to be futureproof with a better known battery platform though.

I’ve got a mobi for xmas when it was £50. I live being able to clean the bikes on the go, the cig lighter power is just a caveat to me.

I don’t plan on doing lots of fiddling with the cables and pipes etc so hoping it’ll last a while!!
