Just went to toys R us, no water warriors :(. Big Bee are there any locations in Washington where I could get one? Fortunately, or unfortunately, consumer response to Water Warriors has been nothing short of fantastic. Most stores we monitor have been completely sold out for the past couple of week...

I agree with ISoaker, stick with clean clear water. I only suggested that there are potential additives to the water that would increase distance slightly, in my opinion they are not worth the trouble. As for Glycerine, I am referring to a food grade product. see http://www.dow.com/glycerine/. Not ...

OK, now another little secret. Teflon would decrease friction slightly and help in laminar flow as mentioned, not enough to create a visible difference and not enough to be worth the added cost. More importantly, these blasters are designed to work with water only and to degrade rapidly in the pres...

I'm thinking that at 25% off, you could buy them both for just $27. That' a pretty good deal, but then again, I'm prejudiced.

There should not be any noise from the vent hole over the diaphram. First, check to be sure this is where it is coming from and it is actually causing the noise. See if the noise really isn't a valve under the diaphram where the noise is exiting the hole, not the hole creating the noise. Easiest wa...

A visually interesting demonstration would include putting an air-filled balloon into the tank. You need practice to get the size right, it needs to be big, big enough to be seen easily, not so full of air, so it is still squishy, so you can squeeze it through the refill opening to the tank. As you...

[ But I have a question for you. Will the Water Warriors line be coming to Australia? If so, then that's great. If not, then I guess I'll be spending MORE money on postage to get some of your soakers. :( Actually, Water Warriors are already in Australia. They were carried at K-Mart last year. Sold ...

Please allow me to add a little insight here. The reasons from the manufacturing/retailing sides are quite simple. There is no single reason. First, the term blaster is used in defining performance to differentiate between the Air Pressure/Bladder/Diafram performance streams and the "squirt gun" st...

Why do you guys want to have a Water Warrior forum so much? Can't we just talk about Water Warrior here? Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Big Bee contacted us through wwn (this board is like a clone of wwn)? Not some Buzz Bee toy forum? In all due respect to Big Bee, Water Warrior isn't that pop...

The Bee is back. We are currently in Hong Kong presenting our 2005 line to major customers. I have been very busy, but I will still be checking the board. You have all helped a lot in shaping the line of product and I look forward to more suggestions from all who come.
