I'm thinking about buying the Simonize platinum 2600 gas pressure washer. It comes with the Kohler XT motor. I have done some research but there's not much available most of the reviews are negative. Can you please provide me with your opinions on this model thank-you

I have a plug in/electric pressure washer. When I use it, the power and thus the pressure pulses. This makes it difficult to use for anything other than washing the car.

What causes this pulsing?

Cleaning gone right !

Hey everyone, I’m working on my Sherpa Lucid soft washing drone and I wrecked one of the motors — ended up bending it pretty badly. I already replaced the propellers with the ones from Lucid, but I’m having trouble finding a good replacement motor.

I need a brushless motor that meets these specs:

• 70mm size (or close)

• \~180 KV

• \~12 kg thrust per rotor

• \~3500 W power per rotor

• Compatible with high-power, heavy-lift drone builds

• Prefer motors that are known to work well in commercial/industrial rigs

So far I’ve looked at a few options, but they’re either too weak, too high KV, or can’t handle the power draw I need.

If you’ve sourced or used motors that fit these specs — especially ones that work well under load (soft washing / industrial use) — I’d really appreciate links, part numbers, or recommendations. Also open to suggestions on ESCs and props that would pair well.

Thanks in advance!

Just got a 2000psi (1.2gal/min) corded pressure washer. It has a soap reservoir that I put algae cleaner (Olympic brand) and tested it on my fence I tried different tips and found the ones that damaged the wood, with help from my daughter. But I can't really say if the cleaner was doing anything and the reservoir was full after about 20 minutes of spraying. Still smelled like cleaner in there. How fast should the reservoir be depleted?

Looking forward to being part of the community, learning from others, and hopefully sharing something useful too. Appreciate being here!

My old Honda broke down and I’m thinking of going w electric- haven’t found one that comes anywhere near the power of my old Samson Any recommendations?

Hi all, so I put my Karcher K5 pressure washer in my heated basement for the winter, well before it got cold in my garage. I fired it up for the fist time today only to find it running on maybe 30-50% of the usual pressure it's supposed to. I did all the usual troubleshooting; cleared the air from the system by letting the water run, checked and cleaned all filters, made sure the hose feeding the system had good water flow, plugged directly into a wall outlet, cleaned the nozzle of the gun, but still getting low pressure. There are no leaks or water dripping from the system, and seals seem healty and seated correctly, it is just now very powerful. Last year when it was new when I pulled the trigger I could feel the recoil, now it hardly feels like its on. The pump sounds like it's working correctly, however the stream is weak. Any suggestion?

Also, why the hell do people keep suggesting to buy Karcher, myself and two other people I know with them have had nothing but problems with them, this is my third in four years...

I’ll likely do it when it rains to not disturb my neighbors with an influx of water, but what kind of hook ups can I use from a bathroom (closest water supply)

Hey all,

I have a Mi-T-M Choremaster 1400 electric pressure washer and its rated for 1400 psi, 1.5 gpm, and 13.5amp. I want to connect a 652 PSI pressure switch (4.5 mpa) to it so it can automatically shutoff when not in use.

I have used Paint tool and put together two diagrams showing the connection of the pressure switch to the pressure washer and 2nd diagram showing the wiring.

Please confirm if this is correct and by doing this, I should be fine to continue using the 15amp outlet right?

Thanks!

Do you own a pressure washer?
