Aldeer.com Forums Alabama Deer Talk Serious Deer Talk Forum Sprayer - backpack battery power

I bought this sprayer a few months back. Comes with dewalt type battery. Have been very pleased with it. Only used it ~5 times. If you used it commercially I don't know how it would hold up but has been great for me. It has a liquid pump, doesn't pressurize the container.

It was cheaper when I bought it. I got the 3.2 gal, it is heavy enough when full.

I bought the Vevor brand battery powered one and will NEVER go back to the pump up kind. Threw my old one straight in the trash. The battery powered one is so much better.

Mine has an on/off switch and a little spray volume knob. It sprays as fast as you want to walk.

So fast.

i have 5 flowzone sprayers. i have one i use every day that is 4 years old. cant speak for the others but the flowzone’s are legit

Same here.

Which flowzone model do you like? I have been considering the Ridgid since I have a dewalt battery adaptor and a couple of small Ridgid batteries already. Apparently the flowzone comes with the adaptors for various batteries including dealt batteries.

4 are cyclones and i have a typhoon for spraying tree’s. the typhoon has more power but when spraying, it mists so bad i can’t use it for anything but fungicide/insecticide.

Typhoon 3 is what i use for pest control

Thanks for the recommendation. I have a cyclone 3 on the way. It will be primarily used for herbicide application at the house and farm.

I’ve had 4 battery sprayers. The Milwaukee was fantastic when it worked, but it did not hold up.
I had a strom 4 gallon, was excellent but finally crapped out. Now I have a flow zone typhoon 4 gal and a spray mate 4 gal. The flow zone is fancy and works great. The spray mate has a lot less options. I’d get another flow zone if I needed one.

I used my Cyclone 3 today for the first time. It was very nice and so much easier. I realized I spent half my time pumping and the other half spraying. Only compliant I have is they mention sealed electronics and that is not the case. If you wet the seal slightly on the battery compartment, it becomes obvious. I reckon I’ll just be careful washing it off.

How careful are yall about washing off your flowzone?

Just keep the inside cleaned with water after u empty out. Run a little clean water through it and should be good. I wouldn't worry about the outside much.

the battery cover will be the first thing to break on them. never had any issues from anything getting wet, i get that area wet from it over filling or spilling over when i use a drill to mix certain post emergents. getting that area wet is of zero concern to me personally

and i have never, not once rinsed mine out after using any post or pre emergents. certain pre emergents take as much as 15 oz and will settle out over night, i use a drill with a paddle to get everything mixed prior to using. never had an issue with seals going bad.

now that i said all of that, none of mine will work tomorrow 😂😂
