ACTIVE 2.3 PRESSURE WASHER - Real World Application Testing

In today's video I test the real world application of the new Aactive 2.3 Electric Pressure Washer. I compare the performance of the factory hose with an uberflex hose to see if that causes any issues. I also test the performance of the Active 2.3 in a mobile detailing set up using a gravity fed water tank to see if that effects its output. And finally, I test the foam cannon that the unit comes with as well as upgrading it to and MJJC Foam Cannon to see how it works... ENJOY!!!

Hello everyone including JoshV Let me start by saying that received my 2.3 today. Ordered on Monday and received on Friday @10 am by FedEx. The box was in good shape for the weight of this unit. I attached my 50’ braided hose rated @5000psi to the 2.3 and changed the orfice that active gives you for the after market foam cannon in my case the MTM foam cannon, and started the testing. I bled the line of air and I noticed more water flow from the gun, no nozzle. Using the stubby gun and attached actives included 25 and 40 degree nozzle to and immediately notice how much more water the unit was pushing and the force of the water….amazing😊 The the MTM foam cannon was next and put maybe 100ml of 3D foam cannon soap to about 300ml of water and the shaving cream of foam was amazing, I could never achieve this quality of soap with my 2300psi with 1.2 gal/min old induction pressure washer. As for the loudness of the unit, honestly from my old unit to this one. The 2.3 is infinitely QUIETER. I get the side by side comparisons to the big boi pro and duo that it’s louder. But honestly, the 2.3 is quiet I can talk to people as I work. If any of you guys are on the fence, don’t be this unit performs and brings detailing to another level…. It’s worth it!!!! With the 10% off and no tax and free shipping from Nevada to California in 4 days from order , this is a win!!!! Josh consider me entered for the giveaway away. I may just combine the 2- 2.3 and double the flow rate for a real test .

[@Lucas-LeFever]

I just got mine today and followed the same steps. Looking forward to testing the flow & dialing it in. I am hard pressed to determine if the 2.3 is worth the upgrade over the 2.0. Right now the 2.0 is a SERIOUS value at $350 and I can only imagine they're gonna be on sale soon. Don't get me wrong, I love the 2.3 but if I were to do it again - I might venture to use a 2.0 and save some cash and spend the difference on bad ass accessories until a Kranzle upgrade down the road.

The thorough testing has kept me coming back for a few years now!

I'm just getting back into car detailing and your videos have been a huge help and push to step up my game! I also like that you aren't out here just pushing and using the most expensive equipment and products! This pressure washer would help me step up to the next level! Thanks for the great content!

[@steverasmussen8738]

My Active 2.0 would surge even with a KobraJet hose, 50ft. No leaks anywhere, it would cycle every 20ish seconds when not spraying. PSI from the faucet was around 100psi. I added a pressure regulator set at 55psi at the faucet and have had no issues since.

[@cgraham6]

Interesting. I use an Active VE52 with a 25 ft KobraJet, and sometimes it will surge half a dozen times. Other times, not at all. I may try adding a pressure regulator myself.

[@allenzhang4951]

I'm thinking to upgrade from VE52 to the 2.0. My VE52 with 75ft KobraJet on hose reel surge all the time. I'm hesitate to swith to the 2.0 now according to your comment.

[@asphaltspecialties]

My 2.0 surges as well. Some days I feel it’s going to blow up. I have 50’ pro pluse uberflex

[@Jonathan-pr1wo]
