I’ve never used one, always used a boomless or just the old hand pump style but I have to do enough spraying I’ve decided that is stupid and it’s time to get a battery powered backpack sprayer

I figure I need at least a 4 gallon tank but am open to bigger if it’s feasible, have heard that Ryobi makes a good one but don’t know how true that is

I wish I would have seen that Flowzone before today. I would have probably bought it. This is the one I just bought at Lowes. $199

Our pest guy uses Flowzone and I was going to get one to for my personal use but they were backordered for longer than I wanted to wait so I ended up buying the Hart brand from Wal Mart. Haven't used it yet so I can't comment on the quality but it was $140.

If you’ve never used a regular backpack sprayer, you may be surprised how much you can easily put out without battery power. The only bad part is lugging around 50 pounds on your back and the battery doesn’t help with that. Pumping with your left hand and spraying with your right, these things are very very efficient.

What are you spraying for? Pest control, weed control?

Don't have one as I haven't had a need. But once I finish my backyard reno, I do plan on doing more pest control (mosquitos & roaches) in my yard as things get pretty bad in the evenings.

Bump for the day crew since I’ve been so busy and sort of abandoned the thread

Appreciate the responses so far
