SunJoe 3000 vs. AR383ss or AR390

[dmayer]

I don't know if anyone is interested, but if you're looking for a gas-powered unit, C***co has a 3100 psi, 2.4 GPM, with electric start (Subaru engine) for $269 through the end of May.

Yeah it's very deceptive and a crying shame to be honest.

What gauge/setup did you use? I'd love to test my karcher as a comparison.

Similar to this one... NorthStar Pressure Washer Pressure Gauge — 5000 PSI, 3/8in. Fitting | Pressure Washer Maintenance Items| Northern Tool + Equipment

While it's not perfectly accurate, i can ball park it

But thats 3/8" while the sunjoe uses 1/4"?

Yes, but the PSI is determine by the lenght of the hose and the nozzle size. I know my set up is not standard and hence not totally accurate

No, I mean how is the gauge being used since the sunjoe has 1/4" nozzle tips? The 3/8" QD would be too large. Hope that was clear lol

oh sorry, i connect the gauge at the PW water outlet. I know it's not accurate and i am not sure if that's the correct way to measure it. But i always do it with my gas power PW. Hope that help
