Best value – Mobi V-15

There is a lot to like about the Mobi V-15, the more affordable brother to the rechargeable V-17. The V-15 does away with expensive rechargeable batteries, instead assuming that you will always be close to a vehicle and can plug into the 12 V accessory socket. The Mobi V-15 features a 15 L reservoir, easily enough for two bikes, and uses the same hose and spray gun as the Aqua2go PRO. The spray gun is adjustable and delivers a flow rate of 2.3 L/min, enough to claw persistent grime from your bike. As it runs from your car, you can keep refilling and spraying to your heart’s content, but don’t go crazy if you want to start your car in the morning. The 15 L reservoir lasts 6.25 minutes, enough for two bikes and the secure lid ensured no leaks in the back of the car. Overall the simple build feels sturdy with waterproof switches and wheels to help push it around when full.

The Mobi V-15 comes with shower attachment if you want to satisfy your inner exhibitionist in the car park and a long brush that may be useful for the car. The 5 m hose gives you plenty of room to move away from your car so you don’t cover everything in mud. However, after a couple of cleans the Mobi V-15 inexplicably stopped working, the device was warrantied and the replacement has been working just fine with no issues at all.

The Mobi V-15 is a great solution for race weekends or when you need to wash a lot of bikes. The 12 V power ensures you can keep washing until the water runs out, and the price wins it our BEST VALUE award with ease, however, the reliability was not perfect.
