Battery powered pressure washer

[Toyelectroman]

Anybody use a battery powered pressure washer to do some light cleaning on there boat? If so does it help or should I continue to trailer my boat to the car wash? Currently I keep my boat on the trailer and there is no electic or water hook up where it is parked. My thought was I could just fill a 5 gallon bucket of water and siphon with the pressure washer to clean

Unless there has been a newer more powerful model come along the electric and battery powered washers were pretty weak. Sold all my electric and battery powered stuff and went back to a small gas powered washer. I have not saw a power washer that would siphon, they all needed water pressure from a hose, but...there could be things I haven't seen out there.

unless it works better than the royobi one i got a few years back keep going to the car wash. I was pretty disappointed. It is more of a wetting machine than a pressure cleaner. cant see it doing you any good, although boat would go faster due to wallet being lighter

I have one and it does seem to work OK. The pressure is not great but does gets the job done. I mix a citrus in the bucket and it seems to clean off the hull well enough but be careful to wash off the cleaner.

I did end up buying the ryobi 600 psi battery pressure washer. It has worked out great for my needs. I fill two 5 gallon buckets and can wash my 20 foot boat. Again not really using it as a pressure washer but more as portable water sprayer
