at 10:04 what does he mean when he mentions amps and how u can reduce the life of your pressure wassure? i never deal with amps aside from my 1800 psi 1.2gpm ryobi electric pressure wassure. does he have a gauge that tells the power he draws as he uses the spray trigger ??
I am using an amp meter to measure the draw of the pressure washers. In the specs it will tell you how many amps or watts the motor is rated for. You always try to stay below that rating. Certain nozzles used with foam cannons can make them draw beyond the rating which will lessen the life of the motor. The pressure washer you have you don’t have to worry about as it will work with a 1.1 orifice nozzle no problem.
@2:53 that got me😂😂😂. If there ever was a “Dodgeball-esque” Best In Show 🎥 type movie about foam cannons you’d be the lead. Great Review! Replace the blue with black/red or gray and that thing is money. Love the shape of the clear bottle too.
The blue is a bit much and it has a more gloss type appearance compared to the Pro V2 which is more Satin. My wife was concerned when it arrived at the house I walked around all day just twisting and turn the top. I told her it was durability testing. LOL
The 1.35 is hard to find. 1.4 would be something you can get easily. If you want to put less stress on the machine going to a bigger orifice will always help, but at a sacrifice to foam quality. Most just use the 1.25 which in reality most of the Actives use is in rinsing and only a fraction of the time is spent foaming. The reason I suggest this with an MJJC is because it foams so good you can still get good foam while extending you machines life at the same time.
Looking to upgrade from a pf22.2. Would you recommend the S V3.0 or griots boss? For context I have an active 2.3 and using the orifice they provide. As always - thanks!
If you want durability and the best materials go with the Griots you can just put in 20% less water to get the same foam level as an MJJC. If you don’t drop you foam cannon as it is fragile and you like the quick connect top then go with the MJJC. The Griots also has a no leak top and is dual threaded to accept multiple bottle types. Now MJJC just came out with the Pro V3 which adds those features and has the quick connect, but the bottle is not as strong. I will have a video out on that new MJJC this Thursday.
How has the bottle held up? I don’t have as much confidence in the clear. Also has the quarter turn lid held up? I have the pro v2, and the swift re lable, which is just as good.. I can’t believe how much these have gone up due to inflation.
Mine has held up well and I don’t know of anybody that has had any issues, but soon I’m going to do a drop durability test video on all my foam cannons and bottles. We shall see what can survive a 4 foot, 6 foot and 10 foot drop onto concrete. I remember buying my first MJJC for $60 and thinking the MTM was so expensive at $95. A month or two later MJJC increased the Pro V to $90. 🤣🤷♂️
Thanks Keav. Clear bottles look sweet, but somewhat worried that 99% of bottles aren't clear. Imagine companies do that to protect chemicals from UV rays?
I would assume so, but I’m not storing chemicals in my bottles. I clean them out after each wash to avoid buildup in the manifold. Great point though for anybody doing auto metering hacks.
Clear plastic is most likely PET plastic and may become brittle with time and especially with the use of harsh chemicals. Opaque plastic bottles are HDPE and will outlast PET bottles. And HDPE will probably be more drop resistant in the long run. I suppose UV protection is the least of anyone's concern as cannons aren't intended for long term chem storage. Good review though. I wish the bottle didn't have all that goofy writing on it.
I hope it comes in different colors. With my business I try to stay within my color scheme you know. That blue is nice but I’d rather have a clear and yellow or clear and red or black. Good video.
I wish Amazon would buy mjjc so that they could sell these foam cannons for half the cost or more and have free 2 days shipping 🤙😜. I’m trying to find a cheap good one for my Ryobi pressure washer and I review one from ESP and it was disappointing 😒 the quality wasn’t there and the foam wasn’t that good 🤷♂️. Still going to try to find that golden goose and review more foam cannon in the process lol 😂
When they first came out they were $50 to $60. BOSS and PF22.2 were close to $100. MJJC soon realized their product was outperforming the top of the market and made a big adjustment in price. You can get this one for $82 now on Amazon, but it’s a months wait. Check out eBay and Alibaba I am hearing some have gotten these for $65 there. Try these new clones of MJJC as well. ua-cam.com/video/i9nXjVR2Xco/v-deo.html
just bought the pro v2 not too long ago but I really like this one and it’s good having 2 foam cannons. Will just buy this one as I’ve been wanting a clear bottle foam cannon that actually performed good such as this one.
Having those two does give you options for storage in multiple places. One being tall and slender and the other short and fat. One could be for the shelf and the other for the wash cart.
@@CarsWithKeav I'm still gonna buy the Pro v2.0 just because of the more stable bottle, wider neck and I think that clear bottle from the S v3.0 can get scratches easily. Thanks
Looks amazing. But man, I just can't stop using my BOSS. It's not that it has the best foam, because it doesn't (though it's still fantastic), but the QUALITY is so good. It feels like such a premium product.
Have you had issues with the weighted ball rusting? I stopped using because of it. The quality and materials is amazing though. We all have our favorites.
@@CarsWithKeav I have not. But I've never left any soap in the container (I rarely use the auto-mix and always flushed out the insides when I do). That's unfortunate that it did for you, though. Whatever the other Griots foam Cannon is called though, which I can't remember for some reason, had a ball that rusted almost immediately for me, but they replaced it with another one for me, and that one has been fine since. I'm sure they would send you a new ball if you emailed them and told them your problem. Though I guess you're not exactly starving for usable foam cannons, lol. But yeah, no reason to let it sit there doing nothing if they would send you a free replacement.
@@joshread3740 I was told about that to contact them. I think it was a bad batch maybe. It’s the same weighted ball for both. Both of mine were early models of both. They both rusted even after being cleaned out. They stained the suction tubes as well.
@@brapdaddy It’s s great foam cannon and used to be my favorite when I used auto dilution. I prefer MJJC much more and so have tried them all. It depends on what you value. Having to contact customer support about a rusty part in a product that is used in water all the time is a bit weird. Glad they are owning up to it though.
I choose MJJC Pro which has Balance, a wider container mouth opening, threaded stays on better, a nice container shape and is affordable. V3.0 has a clear bottle and easier-to-see markings, if dropped the bottle may pop off or crack, more expensive than Pro makes little sense. The headpiece is the same build just V3 has a different bottleneck size.
Supply and demand right now on the price. V2 is the older product and demand is slowing so it gets a lower price. They can barely keep stock on their own website and its rarely ever on Amazon right now. V3 Pro will be coming though so that could be the ultimate mix of the two.
I haven’t got my electric power washer yet but have been playing with my MJJC PRO cannon with my gas 2700 psi power washer . Will this break my cannon ?
Should not, the worry would be stressing your motor too much. Electric ones with too much water flow and not enough orifice size cause stress on the motor which increases Amperage which can lead to tripped breakers and lessen the lid of the motor. Gas shouldn’t be a problem, but if you use all the time I would put a 1.5 orifice in the to help the flow.
I'm still happy with my MJJC V2 but I do like the quick twist on and off for the cap on the V3. My V2 cap gets stuck and I have to use channel locks to get it off. That's annoying.
Hello there im trying to fine a foam cannon for my system I have a 3500 psi 5.5 gpm setup ive bought three different foam cannon and none of them will hold a steady stream they go on and off. Is my system to powerful I cant figure it out any info would help thanks.
That is a lot of pressure and flow. I think you have two options 1) dial down the machine if it has a pressure regulator you can adjust. 2) get at least a 1.5 orifice or maybe even bigger 1.75 or 2.0. Never tried on one that powerful. One question is what is the brand and model of your pressure washer so I can do a little research as well.
Subscribed and in the market for a new foam cannon. Im torn between the griots boss with auto mixer. The mjjc 2.0 pro and this vew one. Can the griots auto mixers be added to this gun? If it can id just order this new mjjc gun and the auto mixers. Thanks
You can do it, but with the new MJJC weighted balls having metal filter inserts the only way is putting the siphons in the tube. I show in this video. ua-cam.com/video/qoJCSqo0VxY/v-deo.html
@@leojohnwayne1422 We all start out just learning so welcome to the addiction. 🤣 I would start at 50ml of product and 950ml of water and increase or decrease based on the foam output. Your water quality can change the foam level as well.
It is the same sandwich filter design they use in the pro V2. It is basically the exact same as the V2 except they changed the top, neck size, bottle clarity and improved the weighted ball.
Awesome, if I may ask how much was shipping. It is a good bit as it coming from overseas. Hopefully Amazon will have a better overall price when it becomes available there.
Great review buddy, they contact me also to make a review. I am from the Netherlands so my video wil be in dutch. Looking forward to your next video 😉👍
Awesome! It’s a great foam cannon. I have a video coming out in 40 minutes that will show how foam cannons do in drop tests. Let’s just say the clear bottles are kinda weak.
no one talks about the HOLE in the cap. It leaks "slippery" soap any time you tilt or shake product. it's a bad design. I want to return this and go to V.2 PRO. It's weird that all if a sudden MJJC is not responding to my emails, they sure were when I wanted to buy!!@ i hope I get a resolution soon!
Was my favorite for sometime until I stopped using auto mix. MJJC is just better at foaming, but I love the choices we have now so many good ones out there. Years ago there was only the MTM PF22.
I’m very interested! I have to consider it since my MJJC 2 isn’t foaming thick for some reason. I tried buying after market 1.1 & 1.5 with no difference. You think maybe I got a “dudd”? Anyway thanks for the content! Excellent work and info!! 👌
Like others stated cleaning out the filters and mesh filter on the weighted ball. Also, soap and dilution are big factors as well. Some soaps don’t foam well. One last thing is water quality.
Why does everyone mix the soap and water in the foam cannon bottle instead of mixing it in a gallon or two jug? Any leftover can be placed back in the premade jugs and stored for the next wash.
Well for me I do so many reviews and have limited shelf space and that extra big jug or bottle is taking up valuable space. If I ran a detailing business I would for sure do that at the least or have a dilution pump do it all for me. Other reason is sometimes I might go a month between using the same soap so the premix would most likely have separated some and would have to be mixed anyways to maintain consistent dilution. Finally for me I like to play with dilution levels as well. You have very valid points and if I was running the same soap and wash dilution every time I would have a premixed bottle for sure. Really appreciate the feedback.
Why does no one show how to install these step by step? I get the instructions are there but even they aren’t detailed enough. First time buyers need to know how these work
I’ll make sure I explain in future videos and I plan to do a foam cannon 101 type video. Going over the different types, how they work and how they are put together.
I have not even tried it with Incredible suds. I think it might foam better than the Pro V2. Could just be because it has newer filter and my V2 has been used and abused. LOL
FURTHER YOU ONLY NEED TO USE 3 OZ as long as the soap is thick the foam cannon will work. FURTHER NONE OF THEM ARE BSLANCED WHEN YOU PUT THE WAND ON IT. NONE OF THEM WILL STAND UP ON IT OWN. I USE A HOOK SYSTEM TO PLACE THE CANNON IN BETWEEN USE.
100ml is 3 ounces and that’s what I used. There are other soaps that only need 1 ounce as well. Not sure who would think they are balanced when you put that kind of leverage on them. I don’t have a between system as I clean out and store my products separate. I only have the foam cannon on when foaming so it never sits with the spray gun attached.
I thought it might be an issue, but the more I use it I’m starting to prefer it. Big enough to allow any gallon size opening on a container poor in without issue. Hold out for the Pro V3 if you want the bigger neck. I think it’s coming soon.
@@CarsWithKeav I don't think the new features are enough to make me pay the premium price and upgrade from V2 Pro. I do agree they are cool if you don't currently own a foam cannon though!
I can't understand why car detailers spend so much on a foam gun. A simple hand pump garden sprayer with a foam tip is every bit as good as those RIP OFF foam guns. Numpties.
It’s okay to not understand and one day you just might. I don’t see a reason to explain it since you called us foam cannon guys idiots. Thanks for the feedback though.
It is a bit much, but compared to most others prices now it’s not too bad. Inflation in the detailing world is way more than most. 2 years ago the Pro V2 was $60 when MTM was $90. MTM has not changed price and MJJC has raised. Not sure if it’s because it was undervalued or all the R&D is costing $ while MTM lives off an older design.
It’s all opinion I prefer this one for the quick connect head. I don’t like that it leaks, but I never use my foam cannon upside down. Bottle has held up quite well for me I don’t store chemicals in it I clean right away. I do think if I was a mobile detailer and not an enthusiast I would use the Pro V2. Of course Pro V3 is coming.
@@CarsWithKeav I agree the lance itself isn't awfal I just think in the UK the price difference at the moment between the pro and this is Alot and I don't feel it justifys it just yet
Chemical Guys is no longer about quality. They are about $$$ and their marketing shows it. Only thing I like from them is their buckets. Once these companies grow big or sell out the investors just make it about money.
Remember this is the S model and it’s actually shorter and wider than the previous. Pro V3 is coming and I think they will stay wider. That gives everybody a choice on what they like with the best performance.
I'm using the tool daily 1.5 liters and it works better and cheaper than mjjc V.2 or 3 i have the mjjc S V.3 same shit different day It's not worth 80.00$ I payed 30 for the Tool daily and 40 for wand work with a 4200 psi hose and 1.1 . I can say that it works fantastic. I wish I NEVER BOUGHT THE MJJC V.3 ITS JUST NOT WORTH THE MINUTE DIFFERENCE. Trust me, the suds and foam stays on the car WITHOUT EXCESSIVE DRIPPING! BTE IM A NOVICE AND BOUGHT BOTH B3CAUSE OF UA-cam PROMO. ITS ALL BULLSHIT!
Tool daily works fine, but I pay extra for better build quality and innovation. It all depends on where you see the value. The quick release top, flexible tube and weighted ball are why I love it. With the MJJC I never have to run a 1.1 when using lower gpm pressure washers. I have a video where I compare 3 cheap foam cannons just like the MJJC and they all great. I have reviewed over 20 foam cannons and will choose the pro V2 and S V3 every time. Good thing for you won’t take long for Tool Daily and others to steal the newer MJJC ideas and make cheaper versions. They already have taken the manifold design and the M22 connection. Just remember those expensive products are that way due to all the R&D and others can be way cheaper because they didn’t put in the time and effort.
@Cars With Keav Well, we shall see; I have both products and never put THAT MUCH THOUGHT into it when I'm foaming the car. IMO as long as it DOES the job it's good enough for me. I dont ALWAYS take the cannon off especially when I'm doing the second wash as I do smal sections at a time. I tend to leave the cannon attached and on a hook, just don't see the point at unhooking it , it extra work for no reason, to each his own. As for the orifice, EVERYONE IMMEDIATELY switches to 1.1 upon purchase of ANY cannon these days. No uses the 1.25. Don't see why they even install that in the first place as it just doesn't work well. great exchange, thans for the reply
@@lmphashby My pressure washer will overheat and trip my breaker if I use a 1.1. All depends on the pressure washer you are using. The Active brand recommends not to use anything less than a 1.25. I try not to do what everybody else does if I can get away using a 1.25 on say a Ryobi I’m going to lengthen the life of the unit due to the motor not having to work as hard. I get what you mean when doing a panel at a time most likely in the sun? I have a luxury most don’t with the wash bay so I can foam the whole car without having to worry about the soap drying. When I did work outside I washed after dark or early in the morning to avoid the sun. Agreed, great exchange!
@Cars With Keav Man you need a new pressure washer if it over heats from maybe two to 3 minutes of use with a 1.1. I'm not sure about you claim of 1.25 since the manufacturers provide this in the box. I do wash outside yes, and I use a greenworks 3000 psi electric. I have a Dewalt 3800 psi gas but it's just too powerful for this work. Again, I'm not an expert, just a novice trying to work with things that get the job done.
@@lmphashby Foam Cannon manufacturers will put whatever they want in there. The Active pressure washer manufacturer explicitly says in the instruction to only use a minimum of a 1.25 with a foam cannon. It is a 15 AMP pressure washer and using a 1.1 pushes it over that and can also trip the breaker. The reason it does that is because it is an actual true 2.0 gpm machine and its too much water flow to hold back when using to small of an orifice. If you ever get to use one and a 1.25 you will understand why you would never need a 1.1.
Fell off for me close to two years ago. A lot of the industry maybe a year ago. I used to think it was the best now it’s not even in my top 10 and not because of foam just it’s dated and so many new features are out there.
@@CarsWithKeavyou need to say this to Obsessed Garage. The guy thinks MJJC is a cheap Chinese IP stealing company. Some people are so full of themselves...

@your comment on a "1.35 or 1.5 being enough", do you suggest switching out the 1.25 in the MJJC S v3 with those to extend the life of the active?

Hello there im trying to fine a foam cannon for my system I have a 3500 psi 5.5 gpm setup ive bought three different foam cannon and none of them will hold a steady stream they go on and off. Is my system to powerful I cant figure it out any info would help thanks.
That is a lot of pressure and flow. I think you have two options 1) dial down the machine if it has a pressure regulator you can adjust. 2) get at least a 1.5 orifice or maybe even bigger 1.75 or 2.0. Never tried on one that powerful. One question is what is the brand and model of your pressure washer so I can do a little research as well.
Have you had any issues with your 2.0 yet? 😅 my pressure switch went together with the gfci plug
Not yet except a few times it got stuck cycling when using my foam cannon, but a trigger pull got it to stop.
Pretty impressive. Light box styrofoam haha. Definitely like my mjjc Pro if that ever takes a shit I'll definitely look into getting this one
You know you can always hit me up I am sure when it goes bad I will have quite a few I can spare for my friends. LOL
@@CarsWithKeavIn that case I think you and me could be great friends 🤣
Subscribed and in the market for a new foam cannon. Im torn between the griots boss with auto mixer. The mjjc 2.0 pro and this vew one. Can the griots auto mixers be added to this gun? If it can id just order this new mjjc gun and the auto mixers. Thanks
You can do it, but with the new MJJC weighted balls having metal filter inserts the only way is putting the siphons in the tube. I show in this video. ua-cam.com/video/qoJCSqo0VxY/v-deo.html
@@CarsWithKeav ok thank you 🤝
Link for the measurement cup?
Here you go amzn.to/3UJzaPM They come in packs of 3 for $6.99 on Amazon.
@@CarsWithKeav thanks
I’m new to this
How much do u recommend to fill in the MJJC cannon?
Will be using Gyeon bathe soap ..
@@leojohnwayne1422 We all start out just learning so welcome to the addiction. 🤣 I would start at 50ml of product and 950ml of water and increase or decrease based on the foam output. Your water quality can change the foam level as well.
Good review. I wonder if they have the double filters like the pro v2.
It is the same sandwich filter design they use in the pro V2. It is basically the exact same as the V2 except they changed the top, neck size, bottle clarity and improved the weighted ball.
Just ordered mine 😎
Awesome, if I may ask how much was shipping. It is a good bit as it coming from overseas. Hopefully Amazon will have a better overall price when it becomes available there.
@@CarsWithKeav$22.25 so total would be $111.25.
Looks excellent I may purchase one sometime.
If you are not in a rush wait for the Amazon one if you can to save on shipping.
Great review buddy, they contact me also to make a review. I am from the Netherlands so my video wil be in dutch.
Looking forward to your next video 😉👍
Awesome! It’s a great foam cannon. I have a video coming out in 40 minutes that will show how foam cannons do in drop tests. Let’s just say the clear bottles are kinda weak.
no one talks about the HOLE in the cap. It leaks "slippery" soap any time you tilt or shake product. it's a bad design. I want to return this and go to V.2 PRO. It's weird that all if a sudden MJJC is not responding to my emails, they sure were when I wanted to buy!!@ i hope I get a resolution soon!
Let us know how it goes if you get resolution.
Thank you
You’re welcome
I favor the Boss Giort Garage
Was my favorite for sometime until I stopped using auto mix. MJJC is just better at foaming, but I love the choices we have now so many good ones out there. Years ago there was only the MTM PF22.
I’m very interested! I have to consider it since my MJJC 2 isn’t foaming thick for some reason. I tried buying after market 1.1 & 1.5 with no difference. You think maybe I got a “dudd”? Anyway thanks for the content! Excellent work and info!! 👌
What pressure washer and soap are you running?
Try replace the filter and clean the ball's mesh, that might help.
@@duyvu8662 thanks!! I’ll try that next!
Like others stated cleaning out the filters and mesh filter on the weighted ball. Also, soap and dilution are big factors as well. Some soaps don’t foam well. One last thing is water quality.
Why does everyone mix the soap and water in the foam cannon bottle instead of mixing it in a gallon or two jug? Any leftover can be placed back in the premade jugs and stored for the next wash.
Well for me I do so many reviews and have limited shelf space and that extra big jug or bottle is taking up valuable space. If I ran a detailing business I would for sure do that at the least or have a dilution pump do it all for me. Other reason is sometimes I might go a month between using the same soap so the premix would most likely have separated some and would have to be mixed anyways to maintain consistent dilution. Finally for me I like to play with dilution levels as well. You have very valid points and if I was running the same soap and wash dilution every time I would have a premixed bottle for sure. Really appreciate the feedback.
Why does no one show how to install these step by step? I get the instructions are there but even they aren’t detailed enough. First time buyers need to know how these work
I’ll make sure I explain in future videos and I plan to do a foam cannon 101 type video. Going over the different types, how they work and how they are put together.
Goodness, the foam just stay on the panel. So foamy , excellent Foam cannon
I have not even tried it with Incredible suds. I think it might foam better than the Pro V2. Could just be because it has newer filter and my V2 has been used and abused. LOL
So easily excited. 😅
Certain things for sure. 😂
Damn it I only just got the V2
Can’t go wrong with that though. Foam is the same.
Brianne Underpass
Not sure what that means?
FURTHER YOU ONLY NEED TO USE 3 OZ as long as the soap is thick the foam cannon will work.
FURTHER NONE OF THEM ARE BSLANCED WHEN YOU PUT THE WAND ON IT. NONE OF THEM WILL STAND UP ON IT OWN.
I USE A HOOK SYSTEM TO PLACE THE CANNON IN BETWEEN USE.
100ml is 3 ounces and that’s what I used. There are other soaps that only need 1 ounce as well. Not sure who would think they are balanced when you put that kind of leverage on them. I don’t have a between system as I clean out and store my products separate. I only have the foam cannon on when foaming so it never sits with the spray gun attached.
Thanks - if my Pro version dies on me, I’ll upgrade
Pro V3 is coming soon I here as well.
It should have a bigger mouth on the container like the pro, that's a deal breaker for me personally.
I thought it might be an issue, but the more I use it I’m starting to prefer it. Big enough to allow any gallon size opening on a container poor in without issue. Hold out for the Pro V3 if you want the bigger neck. I think it’s coming soon.
@@CarsWithKeav I don't think the new features are enough to make me pay the premium price and upgrade from V2 Pro. I do agree they are cool if you don't currently own a foam cannon though!
@@xamphoa Don’t you worry, Pro V3 is coming soon. Don’t know what they are changing, but has to be better in order to sell.
I can't understand why car detailers spend so much on a foam gun. A simple hand pump garden sprayer with a foam tip is every bit as good as those RIP OFF foam guns. Numpties.
It’s okay to not understand and one day you just might. I don’t see a reason to explain it since you called us foam cannon guys idiots. Thanks for the feedback though.
lol, he has 13 of them here. One question WHY?
@@LuisC202 Because I review them so others can be informed on their purchase.
good product but the price is ridiculous...
It is a bit much, but compared to most others prices now it’s not too bad. Inflation in the detailing world is way more than most. 2 years ago the Pro V2 was $60 when MTM was $90. MTM has not changed price and MJJC has raised. Not sure if it’s because it was undervalued or all the R&D is costing $ while MTM lives off an older design.
waste of money in my opinion , the review on my channel lists all my issues with this lance but people I feel would be better sticking with the pro v2
It’s all opinion I prefer this one for the quick connect head. I don’t like that it leaks, but I never use my foam cannon upside down. Bottle has held up quite well for me I don’t store chemicals in it I clean right away. I do think if I was a mobile detailer and not an enthusiast I would use the Pro V2. Of course Pro V3 is coming.
@@CarsWithKeav I agree the lance itself isn't awfal I just think in the UK the price difference at the moment between the pro and this is Alot and I don't feel it justifys it just yet
One drop and it will break 😂
Drop it all the time still just as good as the day I got it.
@@CarsWithKeav make a video for drop test s v3. I’ll believe you 😂
everytime i buy a foam cannon from chemical guys it breaks so easy. so sick of that company they need to make better cheaper stuff
Chemical Guys is no longer about quality. They are about $$$ and their marketing shows it. Only thing I like from them is their buckets. Once these companies grow big or sell out the investors just make it about money.
I don't like that tall, thin canister at all. That's a step in the wrong direction for MJJC.
Remember this is the S model and it’s actually shorter and wider than the previous. Pro V3 is coming and I think they will stay wider. That gives everybody a choice on what they like with the best performance.
@@CarsWithKeav My fault -- I didn't realize this was the S model, and it's definitely an improvement from the thin, tall canister on the V2 model.
I'm using the tool daily 1.5 liters and it works better and cheaper than mjjc V.2 or 3
i have the mjjc S V.3 same shit different day
It's not worth 80.00$ I payed 30 for the Tool daily and 40 for wand work with a 4200 psi hose and 1.1 . I can say that it works fantastic. I wish I NEVER BOUGHT THE MJJC V.3 ITS JUST NOT WORTH THE MINUTE DIFFERENCE.
Trust me, the suds and foam stays on the car WITHOUT EXCESSIVE DRIPPING!
BTE IM A NOVICE AND BOUGHT BOTH B3CAUSE OF UA-cam PROMO.
ITS ALL BULLSHIT!
Tool daily works fine, but I pay extra for better build quality and innovation. It all depends on where you see the value. The quick release top, flexible tube and weighted ball are why I love it. With the MJJC I never have to run a 1.1 when using lower gpm pressure washers. I have a video where I compare 3 cheap foam cannons just like the MJJC and they all great. I have reviewed over 20 foam cannons and will choose the pro V2 and S V3 every time. Good thing for you won’t take long for Tool Daily and others to steal the newer MJJC ideas and make cheaper versions. They already have taken the manifold design and the M22 connection. Just remember those expensive products are that way due to all the R&D and others can be way cheaper because they didn’t put in the time and effort.
@Cars With Keav Well, we shall see; I have both products and never put THAT MUCH THOUGHT into it when I'm foaming the car. IMO as long as it DOES the job it's good enough for me.
I dont ALWAYS take the cannon off especially when I'm doing the second wash as I do smal sections at a time. I tend to leave the cannon attached and on a hook, just don't see the point at unhooking it , it extra work for no reason, to each his own.
As for the orifice, EVERYONE IMMEDIATELY switches to 1.1 upon purchase of ANY cannon these days. No uses the 1.25. Don't see why they even install that in the first place as it just doesn't work well.
great exchange, thans for the reply
@@lmphashby My pressure washer will overheat and trip my breaker if I use a 1.1. All depends on the pressure washer you are using. The Active brand recommends not to use anything less than a 1.25. I try not to do what everybody else does if I can get away using a 1.25 on say a Ryobi I’m going to lengthen the life of the unit due to the motor not having to work as hard. I get what you mean when doing a panel at a time most likely in the sun? I have a luxury most don’t with the wash bay so I can foam the whole car without having to worry about the soap drying. When I did work outside I washed after dark or early in the morning to avoid the sun. Agreed, great exchange!
@Cars With Keav Man you need a new pressure washer if it over heats from maybe two to 3 minutes of use with a 1.1. I'm not sure about you claim of 1.25 since the manufacturers provide this in the box.
I do wash outside yes, and I use a greenworks 3000 psi electric. I have a Dewalt 3800 psi gas but it's just too powerful for this work.
Again, I'm not an expert, just a novice trying to work with things that get the job done.
@@lmphashby Foam Cannon manufacturers will put whatever they want in there. The Active pressure washer manufacturer explicitly says in the instruction to only use a minimum of a 1.25 with a foam cannon. It is a 15 AMP pressure washer and using a 1.1 pushes it over that and can also trip the breaker. The reason it does that is because it is an actual true 2.0 gpm machine and its too much water flow to hold back when using to small of an orifice. If you ever get to use one and a 1.25 you will understand why you would never need a 1.1.
The MTM hype fell off already?
Fell off for me close to two years ago. A lot of the industry maybe a year ago. I used to think it was the best now it’s not even in my top 10 and not because of foam just it’s dated and so many new features are out there.
@@CarsWithKeavyou need to say this to Obsessed Garage. The guy thinks MJJC is a cheap Chinese IP stealing company. Some people are so full of themselves...
Indian rupees only
P r o m o s m 😂
What does that mean? I’m kinda old and not caught up on these abbreviated meanings.
Too many adverts and you can’t skip any, don’t bother watching.
That’s how UA-cam is free. They choose whether you get a skippable ad or not. That would go for any video on this platform. If they didn’t have ads then you would be paying a subscription fee to view content.
@@CarsWithKeav I appreciate your reply but every other video I watch I can skip ads, yours is the only one I came across I can’t skip.
@@kingsaf3998 I’ve come across a few videos here and there where I couldn’t skip. UA-cam picks what ad they show even if you don’t monetize they will still show their ads. Sorry you had a bad experience. Appreciate you clicking on the video.
Thanks, but no thanks.
$89 bucks ain't gonna fly.
I’ve tried 25 different foam cannons to review and after all of them I would still pay the $89 for this one, but that’s all opinion. So awesome that we get so many choices.
@CarsWithKeav Agreed.
To put it in car terms, I could buy a Mercedes but I'm perfectly happy with a Toyota
Painful watching a grown man trying to justify the $90 price tag, "you can hold it at the bottom, you can hold it at the top". Pathetic
More than justified to me, but we all have our opinions on it. Thx for the feedback.
Subscribed and in the market for a new foam cannon. Im torn between the griots boss with auto mixer. The mjjc 2.0 pro and this vew one. Can the griots auto mixers be added to this gun? If it can id just order this new mjjc gun and the auto mixers. Thanks
It can be added in the hose between the weighted ball and cap. It sits in there pretty snug.
@@CarsWithKeav i just did it today thanks again.
