A couple of things to update. I think I mentioned that the trigger was leaking a bit on the dramm watering wand. When I was looking for a solution (which there did not seem to be) I noticed that this item has a Lifetime guarantee. So I called forestry tools to ask if there was a fix for this issue and if not ask about the guarantee. Apparently there is no fix but I didn't even have to ask about the guarantee as it was offered to have a new one sent out to me.
So ok there is no fix or way to replace rubbers or anything on this item which the guy at forestry tools agreed there probably should be but he aslso stated that these are just not meant to leak ever and that is what the guarantee covers. Not sure what they have in there that makes them so confident but you can't complain about that
I had been thinking about getting a 1000pl head. "The softest full flow watering nozzle available features over 1000 micro holes in the stainless steel disc." Hopefully it waters just as fast but is even softer. Not cheap at an extra $32 but didn't hurt considering the good will from the supplier.
I will update how that goes.
Also I came across a solution to the USA male connector and thread. I recently bought a set of hose-link connectors and they have an american thread connector. So with this system all is solved. Well maybe
After some use the hose-link connection started to fail and leak for the American thread one. Gave them a call and as I suspected this great Aussie company sent me out a new one no questions asked. Great, but after a week or so it seemed to be starting again. Back on the phone and after a little discussion they sent me out another two just in case this one did fail and asked me to send the first one that failed back so they could look into it some more.
It seems that the American thread one is made in a different "area" than the main stream ones
But other than that I find the hoselink system great and they are the trusted Australian company that they promote themselves to be.
The sprayer gets a good work out and is still going great
It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.
, though they didn't have pricing on their web page, and their Monbulk store (which is just a bit closer 
) is only open Mon-Fri, which would require a special day off 
picked up a Dramm wand as a b'day pressie to myself, found a couple at the local nursery, but got the last of the good ones, 60cm (i think) red handle with the forged aluminum head (all the others had cheaper plastic constructed heads), little disappointed it didn't come with touch n' go trigger or brass switch (only came with plastic switch and connector), replaced connector last night with a brass one. Haven't had a chance to test it out though, as it's rained each day since i got it 
even after tightening and replacing connectors. Not impressed for the price i paid, so it's going back for a refund tomorrow and I'll continue my search, maybe I'll find a better suited Dramm product elsewhere.
