    Wish I'd found this battery powered sprayer a long time ago. I used it this morning to water all the plants in greenhouse. Took all of 5-6 minutes and I was done. It holds 1.3 gallons, takes two D batteries, the wand expands and the nozzle is adjustable from fine mist to a stream. It's going to be a great time saver for me.

    When Round-up came out with their battery powered sprayers I was like "how come they didn't do this sooner?" Now weeds don't stand a chance around here... especially in the driveway where sometimes you can't see the rocks for the weeds/grass.
    Glad to see there's a "clean one" for sale. I'll have to keep an eye out for one too. That pumping sure gets old after awhile.

    Great idea!! Leave the pumping work to the bunny inside the 'D' batteries. The little muncher should do some garden work for all the veggies and flowers it eats. :)

    No pumping? My biceps will atrophy. I love those lovely two-gallon pump sprayers--beats a gym membership!
    We put our bunnies on treadmills. Little fellers can really generate some electricity when we mention "coyote".

    Well that would save me lots of time and effort in the greenhouse. I have a hose (obviously) for the garden but I could do with a sprayer like yours instead of little ltr spray bottles.

    Yes that would be nice to have. More time to enjoy the flowers.

    What a fancy piece of kit. You know Donna, if you get at least two sets of re-chargeable batteries, you can save some money. ;-)

    But, way to go with that sprayer. What all will you do with all that extra time, miss?

    Got the re-chargeable batteries Sjoerd.
    As for the extra time, probably will spend it pulling weeds.
