Pressure Washer Brace Reduces Hand Fatigue
It consists of a pair of Velcro straps with a double-hinged stainless steel brace. One end of the brace has a spring-loaded clip that holds the trigger in a locked-on position.
"It eliminates the need to hold the trigger down all the time, yet still gives you complete control of the wand. It's much safer than tying the wand into place with tape or wire," says inventor Tom Crossley, Russellville, Ky. "And with the added support from the double-hinged arm piece and Velcro, it can take away some of the back pressure from the wand as well, which reduces arm and wrist fatigue. The double-hinged brace lets you move your wrist freely left or right at all times.
"Because the brace is spring-loaded you can engage and disengage the pressure washer in about the same time it would take you to pull the trigger on the wand."
Sells for $45 plus S&H.
