The one the wife uses. When given as a present she was told to look after it and keep it in the garden shed
Aren't some chemicals only allowed to be used at a certain concentration? I would have thought CDA would make them too concentrated

Don't think councils care, I've seen them driving around in Transits wafting them out of the window.

I was talking to the local council grass team, they where telling me health and safety wouldn’t let the use strimmers any more, so they blitz every thing with the CDA sprayers.

Berthhoud or Solo , just asked the wife ! she would be happy with either currently a Berthoud cause i knackered the Solo . go for the solo475 if you use abrasive chemicals as it has a different pump from the piston pump 425

they have a good range but it’s not a recommendation for the website as I have never used it.

Key is to not overfill a knapsack, lower centre of gravity as well as less weight load light and go quick 
10l and 60ml of grazon an away, did 10 load the other day, now its too wet to do anything like it. ....
Diaphragm pump is better in more than one respect ,like its less affected by frost if forgotten about .
Best to make sure theres the right kind of seals (like viton) in to cope with the likes of disinfectant/harsh chems as well.
'Courses for 'orses.... A knapsack goes where a bike sprayer wont, and runs on cheese an pickle sarnies not petrol
