Trolley=£70ish
Pole and brush =£99.
Flteration using DI vessel and x5 25L containers £100
Battery charger £15
So all in all £285 to get everything u need. You can spend a lot more if u chose. But around £300 is doable.
Step 1. Get all this stuff

9. Luggage strap £1
10. Connectors, i brought a bag for 50p. Connecting the wires tomthe switch circuit breaker and battery. U will likely need spares.

12 jubilee clips, small,ones for going around the hose on the pump.
13. A window cleaningpole and brush, i have a £99 clx 18 from gardiner which comeswith hose brush angle adaptor and fixtures.
14. 25LWater containers, £3-7 depends where u buy them, i got mine used for £3 each andi have x8
15 DI vessel with hose connectors and resin. This is if your TDS (total desolved solids) is less than 100, if its more than 100 you will need a RO system. I got my di vessel off ebay for £35 and unger resin was around £50.
16. Battery charger. £15 ebay
Tools required
Drill, 13mm metal drill bit
Pliars
Screwdrivers
Small files
Step 2 remove all the screw cornes from only one junction box, this is so the battery will fit, if u are lucky then maybe the battery will already fit or u use a bigger box and fit everything in.

View attachment 3369 Use some polythene to pack the sides of the box and also on the lid so the battery cant move around. If you are using the same junction boxes I have here then u will only be able to fit a bolt in the top right corner to hold the box to the trolley
The screw holes at the topof the box lids will need to be drilled out and enlarged a bitin order for the bolts to fit through
