    First full size foamer with battery to market. I know Jack had been around longer but this is better in all facets. If I hadn’t bought a IK foamer pro 2+ with plans on mini inflator hack for Ammo Frothe I would have gotten a second one of these.

    I do think a tad overpriced. I feel this is a $200 product.

    I did the same. I mean, its a game charger for iK, but they are way late to the party.

    Agreed, this is a classic case of a former market leader resting on their laurels despite other companies innovating. And I say that as a fan of the iK Multi sprayers, the design is so nicely executed.

    Actually, when the E Foam Pro 12 launched, I criticized the band aid way iK went about adding battery power to the Foam Pro. And I still think it was a lazy move. Instead of integrating the battery and compressor into the overall construction of the unit, like iK have done with the new ikE Multi/Foam Pro 2 , they strapped a battery and compressor to the side of the existing bottle. I have sprayers from other brands that managed to properly design and integrate battery power, and yet iK did it half assed and expect buyers to pay a premium. I don't get it.

    You are going to love how much pump is quieter in the IK.

    Yeah but it does fit well. It allowed people who already had a Foam Pro 12 to add it and not buy whole new unit.

    Another thing is you can unstrap and use on multiple foamers if you have one. Literally would probably take a minute to do.

    I’m sure next version will be but I think I actually prefer this.

    Do you have link or where you found out about IKE foam pro 2? Couldn’t find on web

    The E Foam and Muilt Pro 2 won't hit the market until later this year, at SEMA apparently. It was featured during the iK segment during the TRCMA last week -

    From the 5:58 mark -
