I bought this last winter and had not tried it out yet on logs. Works pretty good.

I've been wondering about one of those for down at the mill, do you have to have a hose to supply the water or would a 200 gallon tote or something similar work you think?
When I had the lt30 with no debarker, I had a 55 gallon barrel in the back of my truck and a gas powered pressure washer. There are times I wish I was still using that setup. It did a great job of cleaning the logs. The battery power one seems like a great idea.
My battery powered sprayer will suck from a bucket or tote but it's a different brand which I can't remember right now, maybe Worx?
The one I have will pull water from a jug. I use a 2 gallon jug and that was enough water to do about 1 log although I could see needing more if the log was really dirty. It definitely does not have the power like a gas powered pressure washer but still did an ok job. Certainly better than nothing.
Any other action on anyone getting one of these units. Been looking at one. The Dewalt one seems good but several reviews people were complaining about the plastic hookup to hose and part's breaking. The 500 dollar Ryobi unit has some really good reviews. Couldn't really find much bad about it. This is the Ryobi unit that's 1,500psi 1.2 gmn not to bad.

Wow! This Battery powered stuff is insane 😂. They have everything! Looking at the Ryobi site they have everything from propane forced heaters to riding mower and everything in between 😂.
I have the Dewalt unit and I like it for light duty tasks remote from a pressure source of water. The rotary nozzle it comes with is fairly effective. I've not had problem with the plastic hose connection, but it is an obvious weak point. I have lots of Dewalt cordless tools, so the Dewalt unit made sense for me and I have a gas pressure washer for heavy duty jobs. That Ryobi unit looks to have 3 times the pressure at about 3 times the price.
