UserID: 346 |  I ran mine mine under hot water then poured a bit of boiling water on the pipe so I could make it not folded as badly. Finally poured some cold water over it so it stayed that way. Its an absoloute pain when things go wrong with Power Paks despite it being a great gun. |

UserID: 466 | Well just don't just throw it around. Really wish they still sold these guns. Hate having to wait on ebay for one to come up. |

UserID: 346 | I think they still sell some at a Toys'R'Us store near me. Which was where I got mine from. But then again I'm in the UK. And the colour on the UK models is different to the ones in the US. The backback is purple, the gun is yellow with a bit of turqoise and the nozzle selector is purple. |

If you can't easily visualise that European colour scheme, look at the colours of my reviewed one.

UserID: 345 | I'm going to post an article on how to make a homemade powerpack on SSN...I think it might already be on soakerguide, but soakerguide hasn't been updated in a while. |

UserID: 367 | yeah i also have a leaky power pak out of the box, but mine only leaks a minor amount lol. i remember the time i forgot to screw on the gun hose to the pack properly, filled up with qfd, wondered why my pants were slightly wet, bent down to take a closer look, hose comes out, i got soaked...couldn't get it off me fast enough, bloody powerpak straps.. EDIT: unscrewing the hose from the pack unleashes a consideribly thick stream for a substantial amout of time hmmm... daisy chaining multiple powerpaks to one home made 40x stream gun for base defence anyone?
