Absolutely buzzing. Just taken delivery of the grey Kobrajet hose and 3/8 mosmatic male plug. Set up is now 💯 quick release, with SGS35 gun and Mozmatic v2 Nozzle. It's not quite the full set up yet, but really is superb. Invest in the best!
i wish i could have had this like two months ago i was soring upgrades for my K4 , i ended up getting the 20m hose form hoses direct and then the MTM gun and lance. your solution in the video is most preferential, quick connect is the way forward
@@YumCars I heard of them but never heard of them being the best, on your website it says that the connections are 3/8" do they come in 1/4" as my stubby gun has a 1/4" quick release connection?
Am I missing something here? Direct Hoses do a flexi pipe of varying lengths that fits direct into the Karcher and stubby gun. What’s the deal with this setup that makes it so special? Agreed, the Karcher supplied hose is virtually unusable but an alternative solution has been available for yonks.
I think you possibly may have missed the point, we are taking about a completely different calibre of hose that does not compare to the cheap alternatives that you are referring to which tend to split and burst every 6/12 months. The fittings used on cheap hoses are not the same as found on the KobraJet, this is the best hose in the world and I have done incredible research to piece this together. Don't get me wrong, there are hoses out there for Karcher which I have mentioned in the video, but nobody has done a KobraJet conversion which would be new to anybody when you are dealing with new fittings.
My feelings entirely. This smacks of someone trying to create a market for their own item, no probs with that but there are plenty of good solutions already in existence and I definitely don't agree that they are not good quality, mine from Direct Hoses has been perfect
Steve, yes plenty of good solutions out there but the KobraJet is the best, this hose has become world famous for a reason. I am not carving any market out for myself I am stating facts. Also regards your experience that’s great however you have to do a simple Google search just to see what I mean regards poor quality from many people in the UK. Thank you for watching.
@@steverabbits The fact you haven't heard of this tells me it's probably not that big of a deal. You've already looked into upgrading your hose and bought the one you've said which I've looked into too and I haven't even opened my k4 yet 😂
Great idea, direct hose make a hose that connects directly into the k series models then you just have the stubby gun attachment for the k series adapter
Finally! I have been looking for this exact solution! Thanks. Can you put a quick connect on that brass Karcher C connect end instead of the double female coupling?
Wich size and name of adapter going from the hose to the machine,i would like a link. I have an adapter so i use a Nilfisk ST-2300 handle now and all the pro lances. But would like to get rid of adapter and use a pro hose and handle directly into the hose with quickrelease. Just need the adapter to the pressure washer. Size and so on.
Good video I’ve done the same setup in terms of c clip adapter to m22 hose 15mtrs, and a quick disconnect and short trigger, but could do with adding a swivel on the machine side I do occasionally get the hose looping up but I can still go around a vehicle no problem
Excellent solution mate 👍🏾. Currently have a quick disconnect setup on my k5 compact with your after market gun but will definitely be looking for your new line when it arrives. 👌🏾
You will need the following: Karcher Spec KobraJet: yumcars.co.uk/product/kobrajet-hose-blue/ Gun & Lance Kit 3.0 orifice: yumcars.co.uk/product/the-ultimate-gun-lance-kit-v3/
Could this be made even better by buying the quick release option of the hose and then attaching one of the quick release ends that you get in a short lance kit for example onto the connection, so that you can use a quick release to disconnect the hose from machine (the brass part at 12:52 in the video) when you're done rather than pulling the metal pin out as I'm sure that will get lost after a while
So how about all that water which stays in the hose when your done. I'm not even sure how that works on a normal K4 setup. Seeing that connector at the machine side. That doesn't look like a part you want disconnect each time. Yet when done there is s water in the hose?
Hi Nick-I have a Karcher K5 Premium and am interested in buying the adapter that you featured in this video that allows me to be rid of the standard Karcher hose. How can I purchase that. I am in the US. Thanks!! The
Also wonder how much more stress this puts on the pump. Going from a 6m to a 30m hose, the engine needs to pump much more massa through the hose. Do you have any info on that part?
wow that's an upgrade. That's why I never bought a high-pressure cleaner, because I found that with all those devices the high-pressure hose was too stiff, and you could especially see that in the recoil of the hose. and therefore always used the garden hose and the 2 bucket method.
Brilliant! I have been using Karchers on and off for years and kept getting rid of them due to the stupid proprietary fittings. I run a K2 as it is less then half the weight of my Ryobi when it want to go mobile. Karcher is as popular in Australia as the UK so I’ll be buying up a few and selling/giving to friends and family. One thing, with 5-8 minutes of info, why take over 20 minutes to disseminate the information?!
I have just bought the 15 metre Hose reel kit in grey from your good selves, to use with my pressure washer which is a karcher k4, will I need a c-clip adaptor?
Did my conversion about 2 years ago on my k4,but got my hose from directhoses in England,what is the difference in American and English hose? mine is a flexhose.
KobraJet hoses are the most famous and most requested out of all the hoses in the industry. The jacket consistencies can keep you entertained for many years due to each one having their own benefits
We are the importer into the UK and Europe for them. You can buy them here for years. The initial popularity and craze started in the US and then over the Atlantic to us
Enjoyed the video. I have a K5 and hate the fact that I can’t upgrade with standard fittings. Do you sell the adapter that allows me to use a Kobrajet or Uberflex hose? I emailed also and would love to know. Thanks!
i have a bosch 135 its a pain in the ass getting the hose to go in the machine ... i did find out aswell most karcher bosch and nilfisk are the same connections ... is there any way you can look in to a quick connection from the hose to the machine that will make life easier for all off us useing them machines?
This this a quick connection, one end of the hose you can pull out if needs be and the other end is the most universal connection in the industry. You will not have to do anything else apart from getting back to enjoying one hell of a package
@@YumCars thas what i mean on my bosch machine i have same "C" clip push it in then push your hose in ... is it possaible to do a male and female type like you have on the gun?
Nice, I have the older style Karcher K5 and I got an adapter to allow the fitting of a QC fitting which allowed me to use a Uberflex hose, also from the USA. Also using a gun with the nozzles and an extension lance, all a huge improvement on the original Karcher units. Might buy a Kranzle next because of the M22 outlet.
I would also been keen if you had one for the AVA, I have a P60, I’m currently using an Nilfisk M22 adaptor. Would this be a good replacement with the Nilfisk one you have? If so, when can we buy? Cheers
Yes it’s a very easily solution. It has nothing to do with the gun, it is the orifice of your pressure tip, too big and you will lose pressure. Send us an email and we will help you get the best orifice size for your specific flow rate and you will go back to enjoying the shorter guns very easily
We would agree however some people like to upgrade in stages. Before getting the best pressure washer they will sometimes want to make the best use of something like a Karcher

The excitement on your face said it all from the get go! Thanks for the video, I got a K4 as well this will make a good mod for me

There is always a next time Tommy 😀
Same thing happened to me 😩
Is there a problem with the hose direct one as I was looking at it and thinking of buying it?
There is always a different level in quality. KobraJet hoses from the US are regarded as the best
@@YumCars I heard of them but never heard of them being the best, on your website it says that the connections are 3/8" do they come in 1/4" as my stubby gun has a 1/4" quick release connection?

This is a completely different fitment method and certainly the first of its kind for the KobraJet in the UK and EU
Exactly!
What a game changer nick excellent mate 👍👍👍
Finally an end to those terrible karcher hoses 👌
Thank you!
Finally! I have been looking for this exact solution! Thanks. Can you put a quick connect on that brass Karcher C connect end instead of the double female coupling?
one end is already a Karcher spec fitting and the other will fit perfectly for you quick release gun. or did we misunderstand your question?

That hose 😍
Definitely need that in my life!
These are truly beautiful!
Karcher has an adapter from clip to threaded connection. Have you check that out?
Love the vid man, can I ask what's the name of the brass fitting?
Nick any movement on my Ava p80 this one is a real pain pal
Ava is coming Carl!
Will it still fit through that pass though hole, looked like it did not. All those adapters together seem to blocking that pass through now
Everything fits perfect, nothing is getting blocked. It is an original connection, so fitment is nice and tight
@@YumCars thanks! It looked to extend very long and thus could not loop back through that hole again. Thanks for the reply
Karcher (Kärcher) is a German Company which produces in Winnenden (near Stuttgart) but also in Brazil, the US, Australia and other countries.
Amazing!
Excellent solution mate 👍🏾. Currently have a quick disconnect setup on my k5 compact with your after market gun but will definitely be looking for your new line when it arrives. 👌🏾
Soon angelo 😃
That was great but this adapter is not available on your website man!
It is special for this hose thread 🫶
Great video I have a karcher k5 what connections would I need ?
You will need the following:
Karcher Spec KobraJet: yumcars.co.uk/product/kobrajet-hose-blue/
Gun & Lance Kit 3.0 orifice: yumcars.co.uk/product/the-ultimate-gun-lance-kit-v3/

In the future yes, that is something that can be done
Any luck finding a quick release 'female to female' adapter as you've suggested?
This solution also applies if you have a K3 ?
Thank you very much for this video and for your time !
of course
but here is a tip. this hose get better with a better machine. if you go too far away with a K3 you will notice a drop in flow and pressure
@@YumCars Thank you for the tip!
I don't plan to use a longer hose than 10M. I don't think that I might need a longer hose.
So how about all that water which stays in the hose when your done. I'm not even sure how that works on a normal K4 setup. Seeing that connector at the machine side. That doesn't look like a part you want disconnect each time. Yet when done there is s water in the hose?
You can take it off after every use that is not a problem. Also having water in the hose after use is fine, it is the same on the original hose
Any idea on where I can get a stubby gun that works with parkside pressure washer 🤔
Google will be your best friend to find the right connection which can then be used with all premium guns
Hi Nick-I have a Karcher K5 Premium and am interested in buying the adapter that you featured in this video that allows me to be rid of the standard Karcher hose. How can I purchase that. I am in the US. Thanks!! The
Also wonder how much more stress this puts on the pump. Going from a 6m to a 30m hose, the engine needs to pump much more massa through the hose. Do you have any info on that part?
Once the hose is pressurised it is under the same strain as stock hose
@@YumCars i was thinking engine needs to work hard since the hose is longer
wow that's an upgrade.
That's why I never bought a high-pressure cleaner, because I found that with all those devices the high-pressure hose was too stiff, and you could especially see that in the recoil of the hose.
and therefore always used the garden hose and the 2 bucket method.
With the right tools and accessories anything can become super pleasurable! Hopefully this will help you
Would be nice to have the links of the other parts rather than just the hose to order everything and be sure its all the right parts
Which extra parts are you referring to? 🙂
@@YumCars the gun and the attachements needed 😁
Good point!
Here you are: yumcars.co.uk/product/the-ultimate-gun-lance-kit-v3/
@@YumCars thank you! Expensive gun tho! Damn
Move you car nearer your water outlet and Karcher machine, job done.
And still use a garbage hose that is horrific? Job definitely not done!

Thx for your vid. Just wish the lighting had been better and the video closer.
Thank you for watching
What hose do you use for the water supply?
Currently using our in development inlet hose
@@YumCars Will you guys produce sth like obsessed garage does ? Coz I couldn’t see any available on your yum site. Thx.
If you can solve the Nilfisk 90 degree banjo fitting that would be awesome
Easily done in time
where can i get the c clip for my k5
Is possible put the kobrajet on a k5?
Yes it is 🙌

Hi Nick. Are you selling these karcher fitting adaptors now? I cant see them on your website. Thanks mate
I have the k4 and need this upgrade in terms of hose and gun can you supply these upgrades.
I have buy the sgs28 for k series, but if i buy the cobrajet for k series its just ready or i have to buy something else?

Hi, Could you help? What pressure would you advise to buy. I currently have a Karcher K2.
it depends on your budget and what you are looking to achieve
@@YumCars Thank you for the reply. Budget £200-£400. Looking at getting into detailing and a business probability in the end.

M22 connection is king. Very easy to customise
hey, would you tell me where to get the uberflex in uk ?
The ultimate karcher k4 upgrade is.........the Ava P60 ❤️
😂😂
This is a solution video not a comparison video. But if Ava want to be compared, Kranzle is king.

What tongue in cheek 😄
Budget wise they're not, Ava wins hands down. Have you reviewed them yet? 👌

Looks like have to spend more money Nick , but as we all know your products are second to none , 20M for my Karcher K7 please
Thank you Woody! K7 will be the best machines for these hoses
Shame they don’t make a shorter length hose.
We have a shipment incoming as we speak of 15 and 23 metre hoses
What about Nilfisk?
What the video didn’t show is I have a Nilfisk connection fully stainless ready to attack the Nilfisk world
@@YumCars Brilliant I’m excited now, when can I buy 😂
Very soon Ricky 😀
Just been looking into these. Am not interested in buying something,just to replace parts. Karcher needs to wake up,or most definitely lose custom!
no pressure washing brand is going to put a £150 hose on a £200 machine sadly
I find when I use a stubby gun I get far less power & pressure than I would normally do through the original Karcher gun
Any solutions ?
Yes it’s a very easily solution.
It has nothing to do with the gun, it is the orifice of your pressure tip, too big and you will lose pressure. Send us an email and we will help you get the best orifice size for your specific flow rate and you will go back to enjoying the shorter guns very easily
The money spent on upgrading most of it doesn’t justify, a diy 130 bar pressure washer ,
We would agree however some people like to upgrade in stages. Before getting the best pressure washer they will sometimes want to make the best use of something like a Karcher
Those standard hoses are so annoying when they coil up, over and over again.
damn this is a frankestein . and yes . i hate my karcher hose . its short , it kinks , and i waste so much time carrying the machine around
Time for the KobraJet. It will transform your machine
@@YumCars I am only a hobbyist. But I will invest one day because saving nerves is more important than money
Got bored. Get to the point and stop beating around the bush with all that nonsense chatter.
Thanks for watching!
Bloody hell you can do it much cheaper
Of course you can! But at what cost to quality? There is a reason why this is the most famous and desired hose in the world
You ramble on too much.
Be concise, have an aim, and deliver in short order.
You’re not doing that at present
