[QUOTE="AussieChris, post: 375411, member: 4915"] That 150 psi red lay flat is bloody expensive! don't rule out a bit of suction hose. I use this 1 1/2" (38 mm) grey suction hose from BiggerBoyzToyz (its pretty bloody cheap). And it really is not heavy at all, I have even rolled it up and tossed it in the boot of a Mazda 3 with all my gear, including banker and pump. [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/4915/1513065445_hoses.jpg[/img] I have the 4 metres of 2" feeding a 2" semi-trash pump then a ball valve and reducer at the outlet down to 1 1/2". Then camlock couplers (if you need a hand finding some I can get them pretty cheap) to 38mm lay flat hose (I think its around 80-90psi rated) back to another 4 metre length of the 1 1/2" grey suction hose, as layflat really does not like corners/bends. All up, less than $90 off the top of my head.
