As I used to be perusing by means of the aisles of weapons at SHOT present, Teslong caught my eye with their non-assuming stress washer sitting on the desk. Initially, I assumed it’s only a bucket, however on nearer inspection, I noticed that it was far more—a compact, transportable, and foldable battery operated stress washer. 

The XS-Mini is a cordless, foldable stress washer constructed as a totally contained unit. Every little thing collapses into itself, making a compact bundle that’s skinny sufficient to retailer beneath the seat with out worrying about free hoses or fragile attachments. For overlanders and off-road vacationers, the use case is simple. When wheels, brakes, or suspension elements are caked in mud on the finish of a path, it is a strategy to rinse them off while not having shore energy or a full-size washer. Teslong additionally positioned it as a sensible possibility for normal outside use, together with washing down animals which have gotten soiled after a day exterior, watering vegetation, or rinsing off the sidewalk.

Energy and charging are aimed squarely at cell customers. The unit prices off 12-volt automobile energy through a USB-C port, which makes it simpler to combine into an present overlanding or tenting electrical setup. There isn’t any separate battery brick or exterior reservoir to handle for the reason that battery financial institution doubles as the bottom, which is a giant a part of what makes it interesting for space-limited rigs. The unit has a battery lifetime of about 35 minutes.

Teslong saved the nozzle setup easy. The XS-Mini comes with two nozzles, one among which affords 4 selectable spray settings. That offers sufficient flexibility for blasting mud off wheels or dialing issues again for lighter cleansing duties. Working stress on this unit is listed at 72 psi +/- 10 psi. The water tank capability is 12L with a hose size of about 8 toes. Moreover, it comes with a collapsible water jug so you may simply refill the tank.

Dealing with the unit on the present flooring, it had a stable, confidence-inspiring really feel. Collapsing it required a little bit of stress, however it folded down easily as soon as engaged, which is reassuring since a collapsible design nonetheless wants to carry its form throughout transport and use. The built-in high deal with made it simple to select up and carry one-handed, even when folded, reinforcing the concept that is meant to maneuver with you somewhat than stay completely in a storage.

Teslong lists the XS-Mini Stress Washer at an MSRP of $119.99, and it’s at the moment obtainable. That pricing places it squarely in impulse-buy territory for overlanders trying to resolve a particular downside with out committing to cumbersome gear.
