Sturm GS8216BM

"Hybrid" household grade sprayer

The Sturm GS8216BM sprayer has several advantages at once, which favorably distinguish this device from other inexpensive sprayers designed for work in the garden or in the garden. The first of them is a large volume of the tank, as much as 16 liters. That is, you are less likely to need to be distracted from work to prepare the solution. The second advantage is that this device is a "hybrid". In addition to battery operation, it can spray solution like a conventional lever-operated hand sprayer. Therefore, even if the battery with a large capacity (8 Ah) is discharged “to zero” (the charge, according to user reviews, is enough for about 4-5 hours of continuous operation), you can complete the processing of the garden or vegetable garden by pumping up pressure manually. This is a big plus for users, because the battery is not detachable, and it will not work to change it.

Let's look inside

This unit has a 12V gel-filled lead-acid battery. This battery is extremely easy to use and does not require maintenance. During operation or cleaning of the device, you can safely tilt and turn the atomizer, because there is no electrolyte in liquid form inside the gel battery. A full battery charge cycle takes about 8 hours.

The package includes a long 95 cm stainless steel telescopic rod and a set of interchangeable nozzles with different types of spray nozzles. On the handle there is a latch that allows you to conduct continuous watering. A potentiometer is built into the base of the tank. With its help, the pressure developed by the pump is regulated in the range from 1.5 bar to 4 bar. This function is useful for those who care for fragile and delicate plants that require extra care.

Sprayer for economical gardeners

Sturm equipment is considered low-cost, and this unit is no exception. It is inexpensive (by the standards of cordless sprayers) and therefore great for gardeners who have a small low-cost for the purchase of a sprayer. If a device with a 16-liter tank is too big for you, then you can buy another Sturm sprayer with a battery: 10-liter or 12-liter (but they do not have a manual pumping mechanism).
