Is anyone using the Silver Bullet Hose? If so how do you like it?

- That does look intriguing... I wonder how well it would hold up over years. I already have a Teknor Apex Zero-G hose . It is similar and made in America. I just love it...very light and compacts easily for storage.
- Don’t know, ain’t worth my time looking it up to see what your talking about; if you’d have provided a link, maybe.
- Earlier hoses like this Silver Bullet Hose had weak connections at the bib ends. Silver Bullet at house works good, but I do release pressure when not in use.

You may have to copy & paste.- Ok for things like washing the RV and other uses where it is NOT connected to the RV but not recommended for use as an RV fresh water supply hose.
WHY: Heaven forbid the park loses pressure (happens a lot) the hose will try to retract down to "storage" size and I've heard (Never seen but never gave my expanding hose the chance) that they can pull the water inlet off the Rig.
"
Knowing (As I do having worked on mine) how they are attached.. I suspect... it can. - Manufacturer says do not leave it pressurized except when using it so not recommended for continuous hookup. I use one for filling the water tank and for washing down. It's important to note on the label that it is approved for potable water, some of them are not.
- Most of these type hoses tend to restrict water flow as they need the pressure to expand the hose. I have one in the RV and one at home. Useful for casual use, but if you want a lot of flow, not so good.
