Hey everyone! I currently own the first battery-powered pressure washer model, but its 500 PSI is really underwhelming for my needs. I've noticed that there are a couple of newer models available, yet the dual battery version doesn't seem to utilize the Flex Volt technology. I'm really on the lookout for the most powerful battery-operated pressure washer out there, preferably one that doesn't require gas. Any updates or insights?

DeWalt released a higher PSI power cleaner last year, and I have it. It's definitely more powerful than your current washer. Just make sure to properly seat the connections; some early reviews were a bit harsh due to operator error. For quick clean-ups without cords, it works well!

I've been wondering the same thing! I’ve only ever used gas washers like Honda and Toro, but I'm curious about DeWalt’s offerings as well. Hopefully, someone here has some firsthand experience!
Check out the DCPW1600Y2 model! It offers 1,600 PSI and comes with two 12AH Flex Volt batteries and all the accessories you might need. Just keep in mind, it’s labeled as a 20V product, so I wonder how much power it's really pulling compared to true Flex Volt tools.
I saw that one too! The only issue is I’m getting frustrated with DeWalt’s bundling; I’ve already got a stash of 20V batteries and I don’t want to fork out cash for more if I don’t need to. Plus, compared to other electric washers, 1,600 PSI still feels a bit lacking.

That sounds promising! If it’s a step up from my model, I’m definitely interested. I’m hoping they’ll release an even stronger Flex Volt version soon since they've managed to power things like snow blowers with batteries.
