tryed a metal extension to the exh pipe on ours, that didnt work either lol

[nakednutt 58]

either weld on a longer metal pipe for the hose to screw on too, or try some flexi exhaust pipe held on with a bulldog clip

halfords rad hose is great had the same piece on for two years , gets a bit hot whilst working but a glove solves that problem.

Here you are matey, can't be bothered with bendy hose. Not had a problem getting to holes with this design. Pipe was brazzed onto exhaust.

We bought one recently and it was back in the post to them the following day. Luckily we got a full, no quibble refund from them.

 

We set it up as per the instructions. It produced smoke for all of 5 minutes then got blocked. Tried unblocking it, cleaned it, cleaned the pump, the coil etc, spent hours arsing about with it. Just could not get it to work again. Got on the phone to Arthur Carters the next day and they were really good about it. Offered us another in exchange, but we we were well put off. So they got their couriers to come and collect it.

 

I don't doubt for a minute that they are good when they are good... but we've heard so many varied reports about them. We'll be sticking to the old converted strimmer in future!

thanks shell i aint had no problem with blocking just not had loads bolting was wondering if they aint much good or locations have been rubbish

Kyle86 - they are very quiet compared to the strimmer smoker ... I wonder if that makes a difference as theres not as much vibration?

we have had problems with the rat attack , seems like it will work but when we were trying it in deep established warrens we were struggling to get a bolt . i think what happens is the smoke that comes immediatly from the tip is hot and looks good but as it cools on entry it just condenses to the surfaces of the runs. we had the farmer watch us with our new fantastic bit of kit only for us to smoke a place under a concrete floor of a grain store that we new held big numbers, for over 30mins with no rats . then the end ignited which sparked up all the vapour in the rat holes with a massive bang and the floor lifted. the farmer wasnt impressed and neither were we . its proper use is as an insect repeller so just not built for the job. thermal fogger is the correct term , if you google this you will find the exact model from the us at much cheaper than the uk, thank god i didnt pay uk for it as ive thrown it!!

Never had a problem with this system, works for hours without a problem.
