BIG improvement over the "pump" type sprayer I'd been using... more capacity and NO PUMPING! It has more than enough pressure, and the variety of spray nozzles makes it very versatile. The 3 gallon size is a good compromise of weight vs. capacity, and the variable pressure knob is a nice feature - I found that with the triple spray nozzle, the minimum pressure setting was plenty to get the job done, and it conserved the herbicide mix I was spraying... maximum pressure was overkill, and totally unnecessary. I used the supplied teflon tape for all fittings and had ZERO leaks. No mess at all. The padded straps make this about as comfortable as a backpack holding 3 gallons of liquid can be - that's about 25 lbs, not counting the pack itself... so I'd guess about 30-35 lbs. total.This is not an inexpensive unit, but well worth it if you have a lot of spraying to do (I have a large patch of woods bordering my backyard, and the edge is overrun with poison ivy - about 200-250 foot frontage, and about 10' deep into the woods). This sprayer allows me to spray well into the poison ivy without getting too close, and holds enough herbicide that I don't have to stop every 10 minutes to refill it. My only gripe is that the battery is not easily accessible, in the event that it ever needs to be changed out. Also, once assembled with the wand-holder brackets and hoses attached, it won't go back into its box for storage. When on the storage brackets, the wand is not that easy to reach if you're not flexible... remove the wand from the holder BEFORE putting the full pack on.

When initially I received this sprayer, I was excited about not having to pump anymore. It worked great and I had high expectations of it. Unfortunately, it only lasted a year and maybe I used it a total of 8 times. When I went to turn it on today and it would not work. So I took it off and checked to make sure It was charged. Then I noticed smoke coming out of the battery door and when I touched it, it was hot. So I disconnected the battery and place the sprayer in the dirt in case it caught fire. Eventually, it stopped smoldering. I called tech-support but received a voicemail so I left my name and number, but I never received a call back. I guess I’ll go back to a Solo manual sprayer. Those usually usually last me 5 years or more. Additional feedback: Customer Service ended up calling me back and offered to replace the sprayer at no cost to me even though it was out of warranty. I'm hoping that the new sprayer lasts me much longer. Thank you!

Works great! Good battery life.....really great product. I've used it several times now and I can't find anything I dislike about it...I bought the three gallon because, it has the bigger battery, and 3 gallons wouldweigh about 25 pounds and I don't see myself at 70 years old wanting to truck around more weight than that. First time I filled it, I said .what??? No gallon markers on the tank?? But they are there, just hard to see in the white plastic. I highlighted them with a black marker, and its easy to spot the amount of water when filling the tank. My review? Buy it!!

At our company we use our backpack sprayers a lot to apply herbicide and insecticide.Petra sprayers are very sturdy, have lots of pressure and the batteries perform as promised, both on the charge and output.The only downside on Petra’s product is that they are slightly heavier than others but this will only make a difference to you if you work with them all day.We also have found cheaper Chinese products that are just as good however our workers break a lot of wands and keep losing nozzles and we needed a manufacturer that can supply replacements quickly so we have Petra a try.This spring we put Petra’s service to a test because one of our sprayers batteries would not charge after the winter break. Jen was quick to analyze the problem and offered a replacement battery under warranty. She also assisted me with the purchase of replacement parts so I was very happy.

Excellent sprayer but be careful if battery is ever disconnected . Make sure polarity of battery connection is correct as damage to circuitry will occurs. If not used for quite some time, you must prime unit using a soap solution. Be sure to flush unit after using

This is wonderful for areas you can't reach with your garden hose and for more delicate plants. Perfect selection of attachments. If you live in Canada, beware of custom duties and taxes...almost $100 extra, but still worth it.

After sales service is exceptional. Highly recommend this company

Overall, this is a great sprayer. For my size lot, it lasts as long as I need it to. Good battery life. The wand is a bit cheap. I would have preferred a stainless steel wand. There is no place to attach the want to the tank for storage. Also, it is nice to have the additional nozzles but like the wand, there is no place to store them on the tank. That means they will go to the black hole of my garage never to be seen again! The unit is easy to use and the three gallon capacity is just about the right size. Overall, pleased.

I bought this sprayer (HD3000) when I was renovating my front lawn.I got it in august of 2023. Immediately out of the box I attempted to perform the priming action but it failed. I called the company (Petra) and had a very nice representative walk me through an alternate priming method in which water is injected with a hose directly into the inlet inside the tank to prime. This worked very well.I was mostly happy with the unit over the fall. Between killing the old lawn, treating the dirt and spraying various other treatments in the back yard, I used the unit perhaps 10 times. One persistent problem I had with it was that the place where the hose attached to the wand would leak. This happened the first time I used it, I tightened the connection and it would be fine for a bit and then start again. Annoying but not a deal breaker. The final use I made of it in the fall, I was getting leaking from the base, down my rear end. I hadn't noticed this occurring before, however it turns out that was some level of leak for some time because the leaking fluid showed traces of the dye that I stopped using around the 4 usage of the sprayer. This was a little more alarming but I figured I would deal with it in the spring.I dried it out, per the instructions, and set the unit aside in my basement (climate controlled) so that I wouldn't be exposing it to the temperature fluctuations in the garage.I got it out to use last weekend (late Feb 2024). I charged it up overnight, got it out in the morning and primed it with warm slightly soapy water. Rolled the power switch and all I got a high pitched whine. I checked, the indicator lights on the front which showed that the battery was charged and turned off the unit. I emptied out the tank and attempted the alternate priming procedure that I was walked through before with the hose spraying directly into the inlet, I can see that water is flowing through the system because it's dripping out the end of the wand (trigger squeezed, power off).I turn on the pump again, high pitched whining noise, the pump motor is dead.I disassemble the unit to pinpoint the whining noise and it is coming directly from the pump motor. There is also rust covering the mounting screws and blue dye all over the inside of the case.This unit only comes with a 3 month warranty.I've got a call into Petra Tools to see if I can buy a replacement pump to put back into the unit and I'll report back on whether I can get it and how much it'll cost.I'd much sooner bypass Petra Tools and buy the pump from somewhere else, but the specs labelled on the pump (12V, 1A, 2.6LPM, 90PSI) don't conform to any pump that I can find elsewhere on the net. The other 12V 2.6LPM pumps are rated above 2A and have lower pressure ratings. I suppose I could give it a shot, and I might, depending on what I hear from the Petra.Edit: The pump from Petra, cost $35, with a $15 shipping and handling charge. $50 for replacement of the major part of the tool that broke with less than one year of usage. The cost of $35 is a little high considering that similar pumps are available on ALI for a small fraction of that. Only covering the unit for 3 months warranty is absurd, the fact that it broke so soon shows that the part is garbage in the first place.

OK first use went great. System works well, sprays well. Battery lasts, super easy to use, easy to clean. SO NICE not to have to pump the darn tank like most models really makes the difference. Had one issue unit stopped working, likely battery problem? Contacted customer service. The support (His name is Tin) was super helpful, even in late evening hours. Sending me replacement unit right away. Makes a difference with good support.

I purchased the PetraTools 2 Gallon Battery Powered Sprayer on April 13, 2024, and have been very satisfied with its performance. The sprayer is easy to use, efficient, and has made my gardening tasks much simpler. I used it multiple times during the first week and again in July, and it worked perfectly each time.Recently, I encountered an issue where the sprayer stopped working. I reached out to customer service and spoke with AJ, who was incredibly helpful. AJ quickly diagnosed the problem and resolved it by sending a new unit. The replacement arrived promptly, and I am pleased to say that it works flawlessly.I am highly impressed with both the product and the exceptional customer service provided by PetraTools. AJ’s professionalism and efficiency turned a potentially frustrating situation into a positive experience. I highly recommend this sprayer and commend PetraTools for their excellent customer support.

Meet the PetraTools 1 Gallon Battery Powered Sprayer—the pint-sized powerhouse that’s become the MVP of my yard work lineup. This little guy is my second PetraTools sprayer; my first one is a 4-gallon beast that’s fantastic, but let’s be honest, hauling it around is like lugging a small child on your back.Enter the 1-gallon wonder: just as mighty as its big brother, but way easier to maneuver. It's light enough that even my wife doesn’t mind taking it for a spin around the garden. And by “spin,” I mean spraying those weeds into oblivion with the same precision and power as the bigger model, but without the post-yard-work shoulder ache.This sprayer works so well, it’s almost too fun. I find myself looking for things to spray just because I can—“Oh, is that a leaf out of place? Not on my watch!” So if you’re tired of getting a workout every time you want to tackle some yard work, this sprayer is the answer. Highly recommend, especially if you want to stay on your spouse’s good side!

The quality of this sprayer blows me away. I always buy stuff on Amazon and rarely does any of it hold up to this level of build quality. There is a note stating that the sprayer was tested with water. When I opened the protective silicone nipple covering the bottom valve, there was a slight bit of water there - proving they actually tested it. The plastic container is a very thick and durable plastic. The fittings on quite a lot of it are brass fittings. They also include plumber's tape in case you want additional protection from leaking. There are two nozzles that you can use. I've only used the brass nozzle so far. The brass nozzle is adjustable, and I got a fine spray or a straight stream with no issues. The brass nozzle allowed me to focus my weed killer on the weeds without hitting the plants when I was close to other plants, yet when I was not close to the plants, I could adjust to a fine mist spray to quickly cover a broad area. The battery came already charged, so it lasted the entire time when I went out and weeded my lawn. The instructions are clear, and there are photos to explain it easier if you can't understand the words. It's also very portable, and the sling easily went over my shoulder, making it easy to transport around my lawn. It always kept a constant pressure without any pumping from me. This product's quality is superior to any other sprayer I've ever used. The last sprayer I bought did not hold a candle to this, and it had a major name on it. While this sprayer costs more than other inferior sprayers and manual sprayers, I can tell after using it and inspecting it that it will last a significant time. I would imagine buying three to five sprayers over time that may last as long as the sprayer I bought here would be far more money. You're paying more for quality, but it lasts longer, makes your life easier, and does the job you want correctly the first time. I don't leave many reviews, but if I didn't leave a review on this, I would be doing a disservice to the people who built such a quality sprayer. So, to the men and women who built this sprayer, I salute you!

Happy with this sprayer does a great job

Only just received this but early impressions are excellent. Build quality is superb, all parts/joints are top quality and even comes with plumbing tape to make sure you get water tight and drip free operation.Having given it a good test spray with water in my garden I'm really, really impressed. I'll mostly be using the wide nozzle for spraying off driveways at work and this chucks out a good, strong, constant and even line of spray about a metre wide. If I can spray like that for 2hrs a charge I'll be able to get an huge amount of ground covered. It definitely makes spraying work faster and easier so I'm all for it!It doesn't really mention it properly in the instructions included in the box (video and guides on manufacturers website though) but it's really important to prime the pump and get any air out, it won't work at anything like it's best unless you do.Highly recommended!!!

This unit is very high quality. The tank is plastic, the hose is well made, comfortable handle, one sprayer is brass and the other is plastic for misting. The pump needs priming, so follow the instructions, be patient, it takes a while for the pump to prime. After use, ensure everything is cleaned. Works really well.

Seems to be well thought out and put together.

Lite weight , good pressure

With its 4-gallon capacity and long-lasting battery, it handles large jobs effortlessly, perfect for gardening, pest control, and lawn care. The sprayer is easy to operate, featuring multiple nozzle options for versatile spraying tasks. Its comfortable straps and lightweight design make it manageable, even during prolonged use. The durable build and reliable performance make this sprayer a must-have for both homeowners and professionals. It saves time, energy, and delivers great results.

Hand cranking 9 gallons of spray was killing my shoulder. Enter the HD4000. I'll get into details below but i am very happy with this purchase. Quick likes: very comfortable wand that does not drip, good selection of nozzles, easy to fill, adjustable pressure that is easy to reach while on your back, comes with extra seals. Some dislikes: plastic fittings with fine threads (especially for the nozzles) could be susceptible to damage. The pump to hose connection works loose - then you get wet and cold. The harness is ok but if I was doing 24 gallons in a day, is want a better harness.Some details....The trigger - no drips. You let go, it stops. If I'm walking around with roundup i can't have drips. Extremely comfortable. Small complaint - I locked by mistake and had a hard time unlocking quickly because i wasn't used to it yet.The harness - it gets the job done. To keep pricing competitive I'd be ok with a pro harness upgrade for those that want it. 4 gallons of sloshing water is heavy - having a harness with some shock absorption and wider straps with much better padding would be something i would pay extra for as an option. If you only use it a couple times a month for one or two tanks, the price is right.Pressure adjustment - very useful and easy to reach while wearing the pack. It will shoot very far using the brass nozzle at the highest pressure. A far exceeds expectations on convenience and function.I feel like I'm going to lose the charger - I'd like a durable pouch the can get attached to the sprayer when you are not using it. One open air side for anything wet and a sealed section for the charger. I can put it in a ziploc bag and leave inside sprayer when not in use but don't like putting stuff inside the tank. Not a deal breaker though.The battery - i wanted a lithium ion but form factors are all unique to vendor. I use Dewalt and got to thinking that a charger/battery system is to expensive and the industry standard sealed lead acid battery can be purchased anywhere for cheap. The heaviest portion of the sprayer is the product and the slight extra weight of the battery is insignificant compared to the product. Long term cost wins and these batteries are proven performers.Cleaning - i try to not make to much of what i am using so that i run out. Very easy to dump out excess from either side and rinse, add a little water and run through to clean the wand. I leave both caps off to dry it out. Easy.Durability - don't know yet and i am not a daily user. I expect to have to replace the battery about every 3 years - same battery my alarm system uses - cheap, standard, no big deal and it could last longer. More likely to die from lack of regular use than from wearing out. Seals seem like good quality and you get a bag full of extras.Bottom line - i would buy again and stand by comments that I'd pay extra for a pro harness. You want to have a good price point to have a larger market, so the upgraded harness as an extra makes sense.

My Petra HD4000 sprayer was very simple to set up by twisting a few pieces together. The spray time provided by the battery far exceeds my needs for around my property. It is comfortable for me to wear using the backpack straps. I like the very wide opening, which makes it easy to pour in solutions. The unit itself is not heavy. I don't usually fill it up if I don't want to lug around the weight. I am very happy with my purchase and feel that it is the best available. When setting it up, I did need to ask a question, so I can report that it was very easy to get customer support by phone. Further, it was obvious that they know what they're talking about, and that they care about their customers.Updated March 02, 2023: I ended up leaving some kind of solution in my tank over winter. I use it mostly for weed killer, but it could have been just soap water. Or, I don't know what I may have had in there. When I went to use it today, it would spray out for only like three seconds and then slowed to a very lite weak dripping stream and then would stop altogether. The motor seemed strong. The battery was good, as it had been on the charger for a couple of days. I wondered if something may be clogging it up, like debris or maybe some sort of mineral crystallization which may have formed over the winter. I know you're supposed to clean it out after each use and clean it up before storing it, but it got pushed to the side and forgotten while tending to other matters I suppose. I'm not a perfect human.Anyway, it was very simple and amazingly quick to reach a rep at the company. I used their website chat feature, which is my favorite form of customer support. They do it really well. The rep suggested doing a priming with some warm soapy water, so I emptied the winter contents out of the tank and was surprised to see something covering the hole at the bottom of the tank (see picture). There was some kind of whiteish, fleshy, fimly goop congregated around the hole at the center, bottom of the tank which runs out to the sprayer head. I put on a glove and reached in to clear it. I pulled out a snotty bunch of goo. It had filled in the small round perforated cover/filter over the hole, which just snaps off like a plastic lid. There was additional goop beyond the filter pooled up inside that hole. I used a screwdriver and cleared it all out that I could tell. I then rinsed the filter/cap and ran a batch of warm soapy water through the unit. It immediately started running properly again, as if nothing had ever happened.So, luckily that was simple and a testament to a good product. I'm really happy with the sprayer and think with proper and regular cleaning this time, it will last a good long time.

I really hoped this would be as good as most of the reviews, however it is not, in my opinion. As a lot have mentioned, the straps are horrible. I lost one of the clips simply walking from the garage to the back yard carrying the sprayer before filling it with anything. Searched and found it, but they just slip off with no resistance.Update: Added 1 star (3 to 4), the installation had an error on my part, so one issue I had is resolved after contacting customer support. They responded very quickly, and on a Sunday! The straps still need work, so I will manually fix those with something.This sprayer did a great job applying an even amount of a pesticide and some chelated iron. Yard is looking really good!

Product showed up fast. Best sprayer around look no further you found the one!! Also top notch customer service which stands behind there product. Had the threads on the spray gun strip and one email and 15 minutes later tin was shipping a new one no cost!! Unreal service five stars all day!!!

Good product fast shipping!

I have only used the sprayer a couple of times but I'm quite impressed by how solid it is, it's durable and will hopefully stand up to the rigours or regular use! It is a little uncomfortable though as it's quite square, so when you fill the tank it can dig in to your lower back, I'm not worried about this though as I have some rugged foam padding to stick along the bottom which should sort it!There's a good range of accessories and nozzles so I should have the kit for every different job I encounter.Still early days but I'm really impressed by the price and build, would highly recommend to anyone thinking of purchasing! 😁👍

I finally got around to using the backpack sprayer. The machine charged up well. The dial allows you to select the strength. This is being used to spray dormant oil on apple trees. The nozzle is adjustable. This is way better than the pump sprayers I had been using over the years and the sprayer completely covered the trees. It does use up the liquid but it aerosolizes the solution well. Make sure you wear an N95 mask and stay down wind of this machine. The pack does have some weight to it before you add the spray solution.Over all this is a good back sprayer that can be used for many different uses.

Brilliant to work and practical
