Water pistols have come a long way since the days of those puny playground squirters. Today it's all about maximum soakage, minimum effort and big weapons. And that's where the Tarantula Water Blaster comes in.
This high-powered soaker is ideal for all you water warriors who demand power but hate all that manual pumping business. And that's because the Tarantula is fully motorised - no pumping required.
So how does it fire a smooth, continuous stream of water up to 30ft? Well, this colourful weapon is powered by its own rechargeable battery pack. Simply charge it up, fill the generous reservoir and fire away.
Fire for well over a minute.
Thanks to its powerful motor, the Tarantula can be fired for well over a minute should the situation call for a prolonged attack. And because it's relatively light (the motor takes up much less space than a separate pressure chamber) you can fire it single-handed. This means it is possible to wage watery warfare with two Tarantulas at the same time, Arnie-style. And you don't need us to tell you how cool that is. Just make sure the boss doesn't catch you double-blastered-up, leading a one-man assault on the mail room. It won't look good on your CV.
Fill the generous reservoir.
Speaking of tarantulas - no, we've got no idea why this blaster is named after a spider. Maybe it's because the makers thought the idea had legs; maybe it's because the word 'tarantula' strikes fear into many; or maybe it's because your enemies will want to run a mile when they sees this thing coming round the corner. Who knows?
What we do know is that the Tarantula Water Blaster is one of the best soakers we've ever seen, as a continuous stream of H2O is almost impossible to avoid. And in the water weaponry arms race, it's not about getting them nearly wet; it's about getting them really wet. Splosh!

Great product, my friends will suffer when they have to stop to pump! Buhahaha. Mark Canterbury, Reading - 13th July 2007
Love it! I took it to my friend's water fight party and I got everyone drenched! I reckon the best thing was it was small and light and took away the pain of pumping and shooting! Jamie, Blundeston - 5th July 2007
Thanks again firebox for another cool product. Delivery was amazingly quick, ordered really late Monday (about 11pm) and it arrived at midday Wednesday. Comes with a bit of charge and fires well. Almost worth buying just because of the giant bubble wrap. Yay giant bubble wrap *boom* :P. Daniel Smith, Hitchin - 4th July 2007
Great product bought one 2 weeks ago, sorry but not from firebox (didn't now you had it). Well with all the wet weather anyway we had a massive street fight. Needless to say I was the only one not rubbing their arms because of strenuous pumping and hard trigger pulling. I would definitely recommend.
ps. I would send in a vid of the fight but water+cameras = short circuit. Peter Boyall, Market Deeping - 31st May 2007
