Karcher Edi4 Best electric ice scraper, review 

Thanks for the comment, Hi just to let you know the sound is picked up more by the microphone than you would notice in real life

I think it is defiantly worth it, the ice on the screen that day was particularly hard, so i thought it was a good test. in real life it is a lot quieter than in the video, the GoPro mic picked up the sound more than you here with your ears

All you gotta do is put warm tap water into a sandwhich bag and move up and down your windscreen mate. You’re welcome

@@damiang9393 thank you for your comment

Thanks for your comment, I found it a lot quicker than a handheld ice scraper, probably did windows in a quarter or 5th of the time and with a lot less effort than with a conventional handheld ice scraper, if you would struggle to reach the Center of your window with a handheld scraper then you would still struggle to reach with this, as for noise the microphone picks up the noise more than you would hear naturally so it sounds louder in the video than it would if you were walking past

Who cares what the neighbors think? Ya gotta do what you gotta do.

Totally agree..

ive always forgot to put one of those on, especially if i've gone shopping or to the cinema etc

Just to let you know the microphone had picked up the noise more than you hear with your own hearing, thanks for the comment

I cant imagine much use in Florida, perhaps better suited to Colorado

I’m sure you will like it, I was surprised at just how good it is

How is it doing the job Dave?

Time to wake up!!!

i am never that organised, i tend to rush out of the door late and as in the the words of Hue grant in for weddings and a funeral look at my car and go "Bugg*r"

@@RichManPoorTech haha fair enough. a glass coating works for many, such as anglewax h2go, lasts for months and aswell as sending rain flying off your windscreen meaning you don't use your wipers as much, it's also very good at stopping ice from forming on your glass. however I experienced wiper judder so now only use on my side and rear windows

@@mic400uk sounds good for side windows, ill have to try it, but on the front windscreen this is a massive No for me, as someone who use to drive 70,000 miles, 110,000 km per year, this stops you cleaning the screen with your wipers and washers, especially on the motorway, leaving your screen dirty at high speeds

That morning the ice on those windows was as hard as I have ever had, temperature was -11 degrees over night,so I thought it would be a good test for the video, I have used it all last season and so far this season which to be fair has been pretty mild so far and the blades still look like new

Yes thanks for the comment, on this day the ice was really hard to scrape off, but i thought it would show just how tough it was, on other days it sped through the job and it did it in quarter of the time, but i felt that wouldn't be a fair assessment of all conditions

Gloves?🤔

@@axeljonsson151 No thanks. I have some.

@@MNJay1 😂

Either way you’ll still always get your fingers a freeze bite when clearing snow & ice off car windows, need to put a thick gloves. a freeze bite is so bad.. it’s just a different kind of pain, I never screw up with cleaning snow off my car without putting thick gloves

I have not seen any scratches to any of my windows, I do keep my windows clean a personal pet hate of mine

It is a-lot easier than a manual scraper, the ice on the window was particularly hard that day, i bet you could challenge your co workers to a race and get them to clear your car for you

@@RichManPoorTech sounds like you just have shit scrapers in your country

Thank you for your comment, Ive used luke warm water for many years myself, but it is not always available, say if your in a public car park, and in one year i cracked 3 to 4 windows, and at £300-£500 a pop it was getting expensive

thanks for your comment

i just need some raspberry syrup for my slushy

Thanks for the comment

I use the windshield washerfluid😂

Thanks for the comment letting your car defrost the window is a great option if you have the time, plus you get a nice toasty car. but the Problem with rainX if you put it on your front window then your screen wash just flies off the screen when you try and wash your windows and you can’t clear the screen especially at motorway speeds

@@RichManPoorTech rainX is amazing. I rarely need to use wipers and when I do it's just once with plenty of lubrication.

@@losttheplot26 hi i use to do about 100,000 miles a year and on the motorway when the roads were damp and the spray dried almost instantly on your window screen, then the dirt use to just stick to the front window, with rain X it was almost impossible to clear them as when you use the washer jets the screen wash use to shot over the roof great on side windows though

@@RichManPoorTech I don't have defrost my vans. Improves visibility tremendously especially during heavy rain. I don't even need to use the wipers keep it clear as I find it just beads up and runs up onto the roof. Did you apply to clean glass as per the directions?

Thank you, i'm glad you liked it

you need to press it down

@@RichManPoorTechgot one already thanks for replying though! So far it’s fantastic but haven’t had a real snow to test it out , but for morning frost it comes off like butter, this device is awesome. I have a truck so it’s a lot easier just to step up and use the kurcher for like fifteen seconds instead of trying to scrape from the ground. So far love this thing and love living in the future

Im more likely to be getting in at 5am, not going out 😴

it is basically what it is, although it isn't a random orbital

It cleans fine just like any manual ice scraper, obviously keep your windows clean as any dirt can have an abrasive effect including on your wipers, but I’ve had no signs of any marks on any of my cars

Just the rotation of the blades

i've sold a few of these to Iceland before, but not really suitable for use in the uk owing to warmer climates

Thank you for your comment, I just leave my edi4 in the car so it’s ready if I’m out shopping

In reality it’s not a loud as it sounds on camera, the microphone picks up the sound frequency more than you would notice if you were there

the sound is picked up alot more with the mic than you hear in reality, you wouldnt notice any problem at 8am, when there is already street noise about, at 4am when it is deadly quiet, it might seam a-lot more noisy

online orders for spare disc in the US. www.ordertree.com/catalog/product/view/id/3652242/s/disk-with-blades-edi-4/ the part number is karcher 5.352-024.3 i cant find others as it keeps directing me back to the UK with my ip address

no he wakes me up earlier when he leaves in his pick up

As with a regular ice scraper or even following a truck on the road, any particle that is on your window has the ability to mark it, like grit on sandpaper, this is also true in washing your car with a sponge however i have found no noticeable marking from using this ice scraper or a regular ice scraper on my window

I don’t fancy getting up at 6am, I’m more of a night owl than a early bird

Do you know how many front windows I have cracked with warm water, also if you have gone shopping and camelback to ice on your windscreen, water is not a option

@@RichManPoorTech I’ve never cracked one yet and been using warm water all my life for the windows

i cracked countless, 3 just in 2018 alone with water that i would describe as off cold not even that warm, i did do about 75k miles a year so wether i had pitting on the screen and this helped

@@RichManPoorTech bit of bad luck you had, I’ve never had any crack on me, I’ll keep using the warm water untill I crack one

thank you for the comment, i broke 2 plexiglass style ice scrapers, where this just copes and still looks as new

ice was particularly tough that day with like a orange-peal type surface, i had broken a plexiglass ice-scrapers on ice like that the day before

Glad to cheer you up

I can’t stand de-over it put a film over.the window that effects the vision through the front window, which is multiplied if you drive into low sun that is also prevalent at this time of the year

In response to the electrical generated, my company is supposed to be supplying me with 100% wind or solar so no fossil fuels used in generating, my friends in Iceland use 100% geo thermal electric and hot water, the lithium batteries are recyclable and the Germans have been using recyclable plastics for the last 30years my golf in 1992 had 100% recyclable bumpers, it all depends how your items are recycled,

i bought it for a bit of fun as i am a car nut, but i really like it so much quicker, and it doesn't sound as loud when using it as was picked up by the gopro microphone

I know, then they get in that car drive to work instead of walking and sit in a office using a computer instead of a abacus or pen and paper

A few people have commented, but the mic on the GoPro picked up the sound a lot more than you here in real life

I would like all my junk out of my garage so I could park my car in it never mind the heating

Good to see someone looking at things with a holistic perspective. The total effect. When will the rest learn?

sorry for the late reply but it was an important question, Although i would never describe myself as a environmentalist, i am aware that All our lives have an environmental impact to wether we have children, drink wine, go on holiday, watch tv, drink milk etc and this cant be avoided, we have to make choices, and weigh up the impact on our lives and future generations Im actually looking at it through two different angles, the impact of aerosol manufacture including waste, the fact that the old propellants effected the ozone, we believe that the new ones don't, but what other effect they might have may not even be know yet, also the emission into the air, as my farther died from breathing in break dust years ago causing mesothelioma a type of lung cancer, i am concerned with air quality, the amount of lithium batteries used in mobile phones, power tools and now in greater amount in cars is something that is only going to get worse until solid state batteries become more reliable and mainstream, and in balance the environmental impact of using the car im sure, out ways the impact of both the lithium battery and the isopropanol but is somewhat offset by my planted orchard, I had a Umwelt Diesel golf in 1992 which was believed to be one of the most environmental cars when it was launched, and diesel can also be grown. and i have had alternative Liquid gas powered car afterwards, and i bought a electric zoe for my mother, but as we more forward as a society it is important to address and improve technology, and not revert to the past, otherwise we would be using steam trains and lighting coal fires.
