I've had my 2.5 for about 6 months and couldn't be happier. I'm a DIY and it's worth every penny. Haven't had a single issue and use it about 4 times a month for a 43000sq. ft yard HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Ginja had not seen any content for a bit was worried you decided to play with daisies. you're awesome thanks for the share; time is everything stay classy my friend.🤙🤙👍
I'm an environmental scientist who often does noxious weed inspections and I really have been looking to get a new backpack sprayer to replace the shitty ones at work. Really appreciate this one man.
GINJAAAAAAA!!! Great to see you! STILL blown away by your expertise, EXCELLENT lawn care services, personal integrity and great sense of humor! Customer for life here. Keep it up, buddy! 🙌🏻💯👍🏻
Good to see you back and super useful content! I have been thinking about replacing my old Chapin with a FZ, so this clarifies a lot. Really like it that spray parts can be purchased at a hardware store instead of hit or miss online. Good deal!
You're welcome Sarah. just keep in mind the parts you can source are the power spray head and the teejet's. the pump, motherboard and internals have to go through flowzone.
I bought mine because of you three years ago and I LOVE it!!! I did have replace the pump, however, I spray a ton of liquid ferts that are very thick, such as Humic12. You are correct about the battery indicator as well.
I haven’t tried these yet but so far my best sprayer for my business I’ve been using the Ny 4 sons It’s virtually no problems they spray all day long we love them
Such a great review and video brother and ever since I first seen you use your sprayer its been my dream to own one I fell in love with them just by watching your video's!!! I'm praying I will be able to save the money for one but with kids its hard to save but maybe one day !!! Thanks for the video ginja I appreciate you friend!!
I followed your video of 4 years ago regarding the Lesco nozzle, when I purchased Flowzone Cyclone 2.5 just recently. I never used backpack sprayer. Pressure is great with the nozzles that came with the sprayer and Teejet nozzles. although, when I used Lesco blue nozzle, pressure was so weak with level 2 on the switch. as you know, it consumes so fast when I turned it up to 3. its like I would have to RUN to get even coverage 😅😅😅 i still like the sprayer though! I guess I need to practice more to better at knowing the consumption, speed and coverage. Thank you for your videos on Flowzone! That helped my purchase and Im happy about it!!!
Is there something that keeps you away from MY4SONS sprayers? Here's my take on how the two compare: I think the Typhoon's primary edges are: 1.) It has a slightly higher power pump (115 PSI max vs the My4Sons 110 PSI max) 2.) The aesthetic appeal (although this is personal preference) I think the M4S is superior in the following ways: 1.) The battery runs about 1.5x to 2.5x longer per charge 2.) M4S offers a 2 yr warranty vs a 1 yr warranty w/ the Typhoon 3.) The M4S is pretty much a modular system that allows for upgrades after the fact (ex: can add a stronger pump or an agitator if you want those later on) 4.) They have a TON of nozzles and wand choices [including the showerhead that you like] along with seemingly countless accessories 5.) Their website and UA-cam channel is packed with very detailed info, FAQs, product guides, and tutorials - the FlowZone's website and UA-cam channel are ok, but the M4S has roughly double the amount of info, guides, videos, etc 6.) The FlowZone service might be good or even great but from all accounts the M4S customer service is unmatched I think they both are about the same in the following ways: 1.) Price 2.) Pistol grip availability 3.) Quick connect system 4.) Variable pressure dial 5. Waterproof battery compartment Sorry, I know that's a lot, but since your review is one of the better ones I've seen of the Typhoon, and I can tell you like to geek out on sprayers (same same) I figured you'd be the one to ask about the M4S option as well!
Awesome feedback and very thoughtful. I’ll be doing more reviews of the competitors. I’ve primarily stayed away from the other because the output doesn’t compare
@@pestandlawnginja I had a feeling that's what it might be. That's the only one I've found that would compete with the Typhoon on output. I'd love to see you do a side by side if you're able. Both units seem very capable!
Just came across this video and subscribed. Very good info. I'm looking to upgrade my hand sprayer. I am racking my brain trying to decide between a good battery sprayer or for slightly more, a gas powered sprayer. I have an 8000k lawn surrounded by woods. Have you used gas powered packs? Thanks.
I have. they work well for what they are. they're fairly limited on the amount of liquid they commonly carry which is very frustrating. there's some new tech on the horizon that may solve the quantity issue. but for now i think what you mentioned is the best option.
Just bought mine thru Pete at GCI, he puts in his own nozzle assembly for free! Wow, does it kick out the product! Went from the Ryobi One+ 18V that only lasted just over a year, to a hand pump Ortho which I hated the variability in psi. Now I just have to walk faster to keep up even on setting 1, but absolutely love the nozzle assembly that has such great even coverage! Thinking I'll just keep the hand pump for glyphosate purposes only. Btw, does your beard ever itch? Appreciate your great videos, I definitely learn something every time. Thanks from an older man, but a newby to lawn care. Lastly, do you take requests? I live the transition zone Oklahoma where last fall I glyphosated my never-been-touched POS common bermuda lawn and renovated to TTTF/KGB. The evil wire grass came back with a vengeance this summer so I'm looking at ways to curb it (as well as block it from my neighbor's yard.) I've heard of using a Mesotrione/Trichlopr Ester/Fluazifop combo , but I don't want to harm my fledgling cool season lawn and I'm not quite sold on the timing in spring and fall applications. Thanks if you can respond! God bless from a Pest and Lawn Grincha.
Great review. Are these sprayers too much for the homeowner? I do all my own spraying for lawn and garden, but not sure the investment is worth it for the amount of usage spraying for weeds and other yard care items. Thoughts. I have been using 2 Gallon pump sprayers for years and basically replace it every year or so. Thanks
Depends really. If you’ll use this monthly it’s a huge time saver and the parts should go the distance with proper care. It is an investment for sure. Not cheap
Great video, I in up buying the Ryobi 4 gallon backpack sprayer, at the end of my spraying, I would still have some chemicals left in the tank, haven't measured how much is left but it's to much lol. Is the flowzone better getting all the chemicals out? Thanks
Buying a new sprayer. You got me to buy a Chapin 63924, and that is pure junk, but...you are such a nice guy....I'll now buy a Typhoon 2.5... I'll be baaack.
Ginja, I just purchased this because of your review. I am however running in to trouble trying to find a at least a double nozzle wand that will work with the typhoon. Curious if you could reference one? Thanks!
you know..... I'm assuming you're talking about having a T split on the wand at the end with two nozzles. I haven't rigged one like that. If i'm misunderstanding send me a message over facebook or instagram.
I don't mind the price I already spent more on 3 crappy ones I still have but don't work,.most of these never worked good when they did work so I'm sold on the flowzone typhoon
Is there a seller that sells a flat 360 degree spray head? the typical spray head does not get to the underside/backside of the leaves and I have a terrible problem of leaf hopper on my grapes. the grapes grow against a fence so I can't get to the back side to spray for them. I saw a sprayer once that sprayed 360 deg, so you could stick the spray head behind the vines and it would spray all around the back side. Help!
Do you find you wish there was a much lower pressure setting that one could use with a smaller tip for spot spraying? Seems like you use more volume than necessary for small spot spraying.
That's the beauty of the unit. you can get other teejet endings. the only application i've wanted less pressure for is interior pest control applications.
I own the typhoon I work in pest control for a large pest control company and I literally purchased this with my own money best investment I’ve ever made my company will be buying me a new one as I had a older cyclone that was stolen out of my work truck I’m deciding weather to just have them buy the same sprayer or try a different one being I still have my typhoon what’s your thoughts on the tomahawk backpack is it worth it or just get another typhoon being I would have two of them then
That was good,I'm surprised your manager would let you do that but I would have done it myself with some of the crap I was given to work with working for other companies
Any issues with the batteries holding charge over time? After 6 months of use do you find that the batteries still last just as long or have you had to replace batteries?
Jared for next Spring applications, what are your thoughts on applying a granular fertilizer with Prodiamine to kbg which has been overseeded the past two Fall seasons? Some studies indicate it can have a significant negative root pruning effect especially if the turf is not mature while studies show no effect. What are experiences and general strategy for weed control when neighbors have tons of weeds?
Hi Eugenie. The answer is yes it has those capabilities. ultimately I don't prefer to use pre emergent if i can get away with it. but the consequences are also difficult to manage, for example: poa, spurge, oxalis etc.. herbicides in general have a negative impact on turf and soil. with that in mind you have to outweigh which is more important. also, have you had an issue with annual grasses in the past. if not maybe you can skip it. if you want the better pre emergent control and don't have sandy soil go with dithiopyr. hope that helps.
The Lesco / Smith Premium Elite (variable flow) sprayer is American-made and better and cheaper ($230 at Site One) than these generic Chinese sprayers (Flowzone/Yard Mastery/etc). I highly recommend the Lesco/Smith sprayer.
Beware !! I bought one. Battery died after 1 1/2 years ,used it 10 times around my home. Works extremely well when it works, new battery 129.00 and battery kept in house and maintained well! now pump has stop working. I’m expecting major headache get new pump. I will inform you with that after I find out how I get it fixed.
Kinda feels like a commercial when you’re wearing a hat from the manufacturer, but will keep giving your channel a fair shake. Some good info here. Appreciate it.
@@pestandlawnginja Yeah man, anytime. I've watched a couple of your other videos and they are pretty cool. You helped me learn a thing or two. I'm all for opening boxes with weed whackers too. lol
He's not BS'ing about how good it is, i've used one for 2 seasons. I have a min-orchard with every kind of fruit you can grow in a cold climate, my sprayer gets used often during the growing season. I don't get paid to say nice things about stuff for whatever its worth. I did as much research as I could prior to buying it.
@@Enonymouse_ I still haven't pulled the trigger yet, but spring is here so I'm pretty close. I'm leaning towards the Milwaukee line on this just because it gives you the option to have multiple tanks. I can use one dedicated for brine spraying in the winter and another for lawn/garden duty in the spring and summer.
This 2.5 is where its at. My only issues with the backpack sprayers in general is they don't do great with fiberous materials like kelp or humates unless they've been thoroughly pre mixed in a seperate bucket.
It kills me because i did a full front yard renovation and only had a few weeks near end of September to do everything before i had to leave for work for this entire month of October and part of November....I get to miss out watching it grow ands baby it and the wife is left to mow and tend to it all! Whats a guy to do for his lawn while hes away and wife is left to take care of it!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
I haven’t had a chance to look at the g3. My lid on the typhoon 2v leaks occasionally when I don’t have it threaded in line. They can be cross threaded a tad, which sounds weird, if you’re not super careful about securing the lid. Hopefully it’s just that
@@shanew7361 even if you paid 600 dollars the machine will last for years ,it should be the last one you need but it is really designed for the professional who will use them all day everyday
Actually my battery dies after 14 months...just 1 season of light use. Totally dead, won't take a charge. The refused to warranty it and only offered me a 10% discount off the list price of a new battery. My opinion is that Flowzone is a terrible company to work with
Lessons learned...DO NOT BUY Flowzone. I bought aTyphone in June 2021. As a DIY home-owner, I used it 6 times in the last two years and it stopped working. I followed the company's troubleshooting video and found out its circuit board broke. The company offers a one-year warranty on such a fragile product. Stay away.
I like the sprayer that you pick up the phone and someone sprays the lawn, that's the best kind! 👌
hahaha, i have that as well

@@pestandlawnginja Thank you Ginja!!!!
Love my FlowZone sprayer. I picked up a 2.0 that was refurbished with all new and upgraded parts for $150 from FZ.
Rad! Love hearing that. we've rebuilt our older models just the same.
At that price point it's hard to beat. I have their little cousin, the tornado and I'm extremely satisfied.

Thanks!
Yes I have one at work I use there awesome
Couldn’t agree more
For a homeowner, is the Typhoon 2.5 worth the extra cost over the Cyclone sprayer's ?
Depends on the goals and the time savings you want. It’s next level for sure. But I find for beginners slower is better
Where would you recommend buying one, their website?
Amazon is cheapest at the moment. Links in the description of the video
I just bought the yard mastery sprayer
awesome. hope it works out well for you.
Hey man, this year out of the blue we had mushrooms growing in my mulch beds. and it spread like wildfire.. whats the best way to get rid of them?
its due to excess water. dishsoap and some water should do the trick
can you spray compost tea with this or would it clog up? in your opinion.
it would clog. You would need to pre strain it
The Flow zone website lists output at 0.25 - 0. 64 oz gpm.
You had 124 oz gpm in your tests ?
That’s almost a half gallon more then advertised ?
Yes and the output is consistent as well. I love it
Wonder how far it will reach with a blue 2nd story tip ?
so far about 20 ft or more.
For the $’s, do you know how this compares to the YM offering?
I've never had the pleasure of using the YM's sprayer.

Setup the webcam 😉
When I heard him say a week’s worth of groceries. 🤣🤣🤣 Now it’s a days worth.

always!
I just got a new G3 typhoon. Lid leaks when tipped to the side. Is this normal? Gasket is in. Anyone esle? Am i doing something wrong
I haven’t had a chance to look at the g3. My lid on the typhoon 2v leaks occasionally when I don’t have it threaded in line. They can be cross threaded a tad, which sounds weird, if you’re not super careful about securing the lid. Hopefully it’s just that
@@pestandlawnginja thanks for the reply. Keep up the good work
@@hotchilidogcarl452 thanks!
That's a lot of money for the device😎
it is for sure.
Not when you have bought several cheap ones and never worked good or for long
well my friend these days 300. is more like a day worth of food with a house of three
soo true!!!!
Where ya been Ginja??
Missing in Action! Part 4 ;)
Wow, $600 for a DIY backpack sprayer. Where’s an average homeowner going to come up with that money. I’ll stick with my SprayMate sprayer for $150
LOL $600? its $292 currently on amazon
Ugh you can have your yard done for an easy 2 years for less than $600! Can't teach stupid apparently lol
I paid 399 plus tax at 432 total free shipping ,took 2 days to get
@@shanew7361 even if you paid 600 dollars the machine will last for years ,it should be the last one you need but it is really designed for the professional who will use them all day everyday
Better then the SOLO sprayer?
hmmmmm
That's my opinion
first.....oh never mind
dang
Nahh, I stick with my Chapman 24 v. I’m retired I ain’t in no rush to do shit.
nice!
Say it’s not paid but the annotations determined that was a lie
😆
Cash me outside
Opened it with a string trimmer! Lmao
you're welcome! ;)
Great review but weed eater to the box was cringe
thanks for the feedback. have a great day.
I like how $300 dollars won't buy a week's worth of groceries in 2024, lol.
Lol so true
I'm such a loser running a Typhoon Cyclone 2V.
😂
Just with the straps but you can replace those with the new ones
Actually my battery dies after 14 months...just 1 season of light use. Totally dead, won't take a charge. The refused to warranty it and only offered me a 10% discount off the list price of a new battery. My opinion is that Flowzone is a terrible company to work with
Lessons learned...DO NOT BUY Flowzone. I bought aTyphone in June 2021. As a DIY home-owner, I used it 6 times in the last two years and it stopped working. I followed the company's troubleshooting video and found out its circuit board broke. The company offers a one-year warranty on such a fragile product. Stay away.
Thanks for sharing.
THIS IS A RIOT>>>>>>SEEING THAT WEED WACKER APPROACH THE BOX>>>>THEN CUTTING IT OPENLOL
LOL glad you liked it!
My4sons > flowzone tbh
sometimes you gotta like the competition
My 4 sons?
I've only ever used them once. I need to purchase more of the competitor brands. but from the specs none of them do 1gpm.
