In my custom-built small enclosed trailer, I've installed a 100-gallon tank to supply the 630TSS, RO/DI refill filter system, 8070 Lite III, Fortress 10-gallon air compressor (model 57328). Additionally, I have equipped the trailer with a 50-ft air reel, a 50-ft power reel, and a 50-ft reel with Uberflex hose. For organization, there's a toolbox containing all necessary smaller items.
On the roof, I've installed solar panels to power an EcoFlow Delta 2 Max + Delta 2 Max Smart EB system, along with an EcoFlow generator fueled by a 5-pound propane tank.
The Delta 2 Max essentially functions as a single 20-amp circuit, allowing me to power either the pressure washer, air compressor, or Mytee system individually. While it's rare for me to drain the battery completely, I've never had to utilize the generator except for testing purposes. With 3.8 kWh of usable power, I can run the pump continuously for approximately 2 hours or operate the Mytee system with heat for about 1 hour and 45 minutes solely on battery power. Moreover, I receive anywhere from 500-800whrs every hour from solar energy here in palm springs i go solo and i tow with my old scion xb I have brakes on the trailer and a fulll 7way setup with redarc on the fist gen xb
This sounds amazing and like you’ve put a lot of thought into it. I’ve been wondering if an Ecoflow could power any of these pressure washers, so that’s good to know. Which panels are you running? Really cool to not have to be running a generator all the time which makes your setup seriously quiet.
Love your pressure washer reviews! Thanks for all the hard work you do!
Love my AR630. Great informational video for everyone
This the comparison I have been wanting to see.
Many great points Josh. Thanks!
Thanks Josh great video!!
Awesome comparison 👍🏼
I enjoyed the video, thanks Josh 👍😁
Just want to Thank you for your advice a couple of weeks ago about having spray paint on my Toyota . Your advice was to use acetone and wax afterwards it worked great . Thank you so much 😊
Great comparison, good information thanks
I went with the Bigboi Pro and it is working well. I purchased the hose reel and caddy along with the pressure washer unit. The hose reel and caddy are portable if you need that, but it also mounts on the wall simply and can be pulled off if required. I like the flexibility that the Bigboi unit provides. Thanks for the side by side review. I don't think you can go wrong with either unit.
Thanks you and Cars with keav doing Gods work
Keav has a video coming out with comparing these with the active and the comet. That should be a good one! I’ve never used a comet so it will be cool to see how that compares
Exaggerate much? Geez.
Two of the best on UA-cam. Both provide awesome insight to help us choose what will work for us and not just trying to have us buy something from them.
Thank you!💪🔥🔥🔥🔥
not me still scared to unboxed my big boi til all the reviews are out haha
The delay in kick on may may be beneficial for those that forget to push their nozzle all the way on. not like I haven't done that before👀
Man, that Bigboi is great. Really impressed with the amperage and volume.
Can you do a comparison between the mini cordless polisher the have the one with a long metal neck and now they have the newer version with a new design...
mind providing more details on generator use? i remember seeing on bibbois page that if you are going to run it with a generator they have to modify it for you but doesnt say what that means, and as far as the 2.3 it just does not run at all with a 3500 starting watt 3000 running watt generator?
Review the Viking micro and other towels they make from O'Reillys. Im curious of the true quality....
Thank you
Did he announce the active 2.3 winner? Is that still happening or what happened to it
Josh what would be your suggestion for krenzla 1622ts best tip degree and orifice and can I put 1.1 orifice into a foam cannon? Thanks
Can you recommend a pressure washer for home use (mostly for car washing) I was dead set on the Active 2.0 but there's so many reviews of people saying the TSS craps the bed and then it just keep running. That's why I'm in the market.. my current crappy washers stop system also failed and I find it really annoying to walk back and forth turning it on and off. I'm not professional level but I do like buying high end stuff and I don't mind spending money, but I'm not looking to spend more than 500 unless absolutely necessary. All I require is electric, 900 to 1200 psi, and most importantly high gpm.
Whats my best bang for the buck?
Jash I’m experiencing a problem with my bigboi pro washer. First problem is I can’t use an extension cord it will only work when plugged in directly. My extension cord is 12 gauge and new. Next problem is it trips its own breaker that’s on the end of its cord. It is only using 12.8 amps? Some times it just busses then trips its own circuit breaker not my breaker. What do you think?
I'd go for the AR just for how quickly it starts. Thats a big deal.
I have the ryobi 2k psi 1.2 gpm, is the active 2.0 still worth upgrading or is there something better for the money in that price range for detailing
What’s a decent one for at home use?
Can you plz check out the new Dewalt pressure washers they have two new ones to the ones you did with the 550psi an the 2100 an 3000psi washers but this new ones just take the batteries I need your input before I buy lol plz test the foam cannons also on them an which batteries is best I’m waiting for your review on them
Great comparison Josh! I went with the Big Boi washer duo and its been great, very happy with it.
Man I don’t know about that foam cannon/amp draw test. I could be totally wrong, but I would think testing the bigboi with an empty bottle on the mjjc would affect the effort the machine has to put into it.
Good timing, Josh. My Active VE52 just quit on me today, so I’m in the market for a new PW again. The BigBoi for sure has my attention, but they’re sold out. I can’t go for long without one, so we’ll see.
I would get the AR because it’s proven. I would wait a few years to see if BigBois last
@@asphaltspecialties I like the brand. I'm just concerned about the need for a 20A circuit, which I don't have. I know you can use different tips and orifices to drop the current draw down. I'd just rather not have to.
@@cgraham6 If you have a buddy who is an electrician you can install one for $100 and a case of beer. It’s just nice to have one in the garage. Not only for the pressure washer but opens up other tools so you don’t spend the rest of your life wishing you had a 20 amp
Being mobile that 15amp is safer with generator or plugging into customer electrical. Do like the AR being based in USA (i think).
What air hoes do you use for your air compressor?
What’s the warranty on the 2? washer pro I believe has. A 10yr warranty on the pump, what about AR? Regards
AR has a website with all of the particulars spelled out.
I love the BigBoi washer pro but I know I would never be able to afford either one but anyway another great video Josh
Why could never be able to afford one? Try harder.

Your review and comparisons are a good thing. But the company price go up gouges the hell everyone after good reviews
Cool shirt
Thanks!
Is Active 2.3 in the same performance category but at a lower price?
As far output it’s similar at 1100 and I got 2.2 tested but others are getting the listed 2.3 it’s a great unit too but not as commercial grade as these. But 650 shipped is great!
BigBoi has no idea when this will be back in the US for sale. You would think they would know the schedule for delivery to provide an accurate eta. AR is readily available and easy to access for repairs/ maintenance.
Early to mid June
We will advise on social when it's on the way. Just confirming shipping times ATM
What happened to the big boi pro? Can’t find it anywhere and the websight doesn’t even list it and your link doesn’t work. Also how do these type washers work with blasting of a bit more grime vs rinsing cars off like blasting under carriage grime off?
If your in the USA the bigboi hasn’t came yet and if you out of the USA it’s not in stock
@@nicholaswicks3077 thanks! So it will be a while…
Hey Josh , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?
I don't have a dedicated 20 amp circuit in my garage, but my outlets are in 20 amp circuit, can i still run the AR630?
You should be fine. The only time a 20 amp outlet is required on a 20 amp circuit is when there is only one outlet on that circuit. As long as there is not something else running at the same time on that same 20 amp circuit, you should be good to go. I hope that answers your question.
Thank you...thinking about buying the AR630tss over the active 2.3
Not sure where your getting the price for the Big Boi everywhere i look its $800 unit only.
Depends on what country you are in and the exchange rates. Bigboi USA website is $699 but sold out until early-mid June
Gonna be a longer wait is my guess. Motors are having voltage issues. Motor won't start, the motor hums and doesn't turn on. Trying to get their Customer Service involved ... And they just run you in circles. Try a different receptacle. Try a 20amp circuit. The receptacle is too far from the breaker panel. Don't know where they are finding these ridiculous "solutions". People are sending in videos to Bigboi ... And nothing but crickets.
If you are in the US ... Just wait to see how they handle a big known issue.
@@HeadShot1171 There needs to be a troubleshooting process for each case issue, sometimes problems can seem to be the same but might present differently from different environments. Bigboi, its factory and testers in the US have been working through a range of tests and solutions. Updates will be advised very soon. Sorry you have experienced issues, hang in there the Pro is a cracker off a unit. Bigboi is aware of your issue and the others who have commented on this platform, you will have an answer very soon.
What ever happen with the give away?
I’ll go with the bigboy just for the amperage, very good video 👍🏻
You can use a larger orifice to decrease the amps. You just won't get as good of foam.

Hello everyone so i need a little help, i just recently purchased the washer pro i tried using it with my generator predator 3500 watts and for some reason it keeps powering down, I would like to know if someone has been experiencing the same issue and if so can someone help me with this issue? I would really appreciate the help.
Hey yea i actually mentioned that in this video. The usual recommendation is atleast 2x the motors watt rating. This one is rated at 1800 so a 3600 continuous at minimum is recommended… the active 2.3 doesn’t turn on either with that generator…. For some reason my ar630 does work with that generator and that is also a 1800watt motor which doesn’t make any sense to me… because I’ve ran the ar I expected this and the active 2.3 to work but I guess it’s different with generators
BigBoi vs Active 2.3 please.
I have the AR675 and I absolutely hate it. Too noisy and the Insta start delay is far too frustrating. This AR seems to be much better
Yea I’ve never tried the 675 but the 630 is a fantastic machine
👍
Pick the ar. Big boi , less gpm and annoying delay
Good afternoon!👋🔥
Best tools is, those can be serviceable. Otherwise you are going to spend again for the same tool
Best place to get the AR?
Obsessed Garage
The Clean Garage
@@justinschuylerthanks
@@div216thank you
@@justinschuyler obsessed garbage isn’t the best place unless you want to pay extra money
The AR is so freakin good, but the customer service needs some major work
Doesn't seem to be much of a reason to get the BigBoi if they're that close in price and the AR630 is such a proven unit.
Can anybody smarter than me help me out? I have an AR 630tss and I have a Predator 3500. My entire build in my Honda Element is centered around that generator bc I thought it would be enough to power it. The first two times I used it, it worked flawlessly. Now every time I plug in the AR it trips and powers down. I bought a $99 Ryobi just to keep things moving but I'm getting sick of walking by the 630 in my garage every day. He mentioned powering down the output at the start of the video, does anybody know how to do this? The predator comes with a 30 amp rv adapter
The Predator 3500 has a running wattage of 3,000 watts and a start up Or maximum wattage of 3,500 watts. The AR630tss does not give a specific start-up wattage that I can find but says it requires a 20amp circuit. So, a twenty amp circuit is rated at 2,400 watts. (20 amps x 120 volts) If you take the 2,400 watts and multiply times 2.0, which is a safe minimum multiplier, for these types of motors for start-up wattage. You would need a generator with a start-up or maximum wattage of 4,800 watts. To have a little more headroom I would see if you can return your Predator 3500 and exchange it for the 5000. The 5000 has a maximum wattage of 5,000 watts and a running wattage of 3,900 watts. On all motors it is the start-up wattage that makes it difficult to figure out the required size generator. I hope this helps.
@@joes3689 Heres AR 630tss specs: needs true 20 amp and Watts 1800, voltage 120v-60Hz. all of which pred3500 should handle. after researching on reddit a little pred 3500 max sustained load is 25 amps continuous. but neither of the two standard 3 prong support a true 20 amp. yet the RV plugin is a 30A circuit. so I've heard of people using a converter cord to take advantage of the 30 amp plugin.
@vermontmotorsports1275 The part of the puzzle you didn't mention is the start-up wattage on the motor. Another way to look at it is a house 20 amp circuit has a breaker protecting the circuit and it will allow a spike or start-up current that exceeds 20 amps by several times for a short period of time. So start-up current on a 20 amp motor works fine. A generator has a maximum wattage output. Again, the motor on the AR has a start-up wattage around 2 times it's running wattage. So 2,400 x2 = 4,800 watts. I do not believe the 3500 will produce enough wattage to start the motor on this AR unit. Once started, it would work fine. Even if you use the 1,800-watt rating and multiply it x 2, you still need 3,600 watts of start-up wattage. It might work in perfect conditions but I don't believe it will be reliable.
Using my AR630tss with Predator 3500. Use the 30amp RV plug and turn off eco mode. No problem.
@div216 It sounds like there is enough headroom to make it work. If following these instructions and the generator still trips out, then there is probably something wrong with either your generator or pressure washer.
AR has been around. Big Boi just hit the market and may or may not have kinks to work out. Keav says AR all day if amps and money are not an issue. My AR just shipped today.
Bigboi has been around for a while in Europe and Australia. They're not new
@@asymptomatic84 just hit the US market. Even Josh indicates this. Semantics. It’s all personal choice. Not interested in splitting hairs.
AR actually makes pumps. BB is piecing Chinese parts together.
@@timkinley1779good info. I did not know.
@@timkinley1779 where did you come up with this?
11:55 Soooooo It would be a complete pain in the ass if you are a mobile detailer using 99% of all customers 15A electrical outlets when it keeps tripping the breakers. 🙄
Is there a law that you can't use car soap when washing cars?
There are laws especially in california for water run off
I was thinking of starting a small car washing business but the new laws in NJ stop that.
First 🇺🇸
Bigboi duo vs active 2.0
Stay away from the Bigboi Pro. Been 3 weeks of nothing but headaches. They haven't owned up to it, and hiding from the truth. And Customer Service ... Non-existent. The problem even seen in recent Cars with Keav review. Buyer beware ...
I saw keavs video where his unit spiked in amperage. I have heard from one person that the unloader when they received the unit was set wrong. Their unit wouldn’t start because with it set all the way down it was pulling too many amps. He adjusted that and now it’s working. You may want to try that? That’s not great to hear about the customer service though… you can email me josh@detailgreenusa.com and let me know what the unit is doing. If I can figure it out I’d be happy to help
@HeadShot1171 My washr pro is leaking first time using it and still waiting for a replacement. Customer service is non existent. Have you thought of just returning it? I'm very tempted to just eat the shipping cost both ways.
@SilvergrovePictures We received defective products. Whether a design flaw, or whatever label they want to give it ... Their commercial grade equipment has issues. I have less than 30 minutes of use. That's a disgrace.
You/we should get a full refund. It's not like you bought something and changed your mind. You spent your hard earned money, in good faith, and you were genuinely excited! But, there are some glaring issues that have not received a proper response. I have thought about returning it, and they offered the option of a replacement, or a refund. I opted for the latter of the 2 options, and now waiting to hear back.
@imjoshv Thank you. Email has been sent. Look forward to hearing back from you.
I don't see the point in these expensive pressure washers. $100 sunjoe works just fine. More expensive pressure washer won't make you a better detailer that's for sure.
Yea I talk about that in the video. However these higher performing units do speed up the rinse process significantly. I use them as a professional but yeah the basic units are great too
@@imjoshvdo you have a vid comparing rinse times of the cheaper pressure washers vs these? I'll check it out. If not it might be a good future video idea
Josh is right, the higher gpm makes a huge difference. I'm stuck using a low end unit for now, but I've tried better ones and the time savings is significant.
If you're doing a quick wash on your own car, you can probably save 10 minutes unless you're the kind of guy that does a half-assed rinse to begin with.
If you're a pro doing multiple cars a day a unit like this pays for itself relatively quickly.
Because I’m gonna feel like a bad ass using it. Plain and simple. 😂
You’re right, for the average car owner. The littlest Ryobi for $100 will do perfectly fine too. The more expensive options are definitely marketed to the pros and prosumers with the budget for it
Great video thanks Josh!
