Ok the suction is a little greater with a power jet but with a 2" it is more about processing quality of material as in the above operation & not quantity of shifting overburden I dont need to reprime the suction hose each time when it sucks dry with the suction nozzle. Often the little creeks I work in with my 2" get sucked dry pretty quickly (very little water flow) & I need to wait for the water to build up again. Result of the above operation was just over half an ounce for a short afternoons effort. I was bringing water to the dry schist cracks via the hose attachment & then sucking up the material & gold caught in the folds of the upturned schist Try & do the below operation with a power jet. With a suction nozzle you can stab & prod in & out of the water with out having to reprime every time you lift the tip out of the water. So when operating in shallow bed rock areas that is a pain in the arse. With a power jet you will lose suction & have to reprime it every time you lift the suction tip out of the water. When it comes to shifting overburden you will shovel material through a sluice box much faster than you could suck it up with a 2". The 2" is a great size for portability for one person & is best used in shallow to very shallow smaller creeks for cleaning up bed rock & the cracks & crevices. I beg to differ about the power jet over a suction nozzle. The largest piece of gold I found with mine was blown straight through. You may also want to consider doing some mods to the punch plate as it can be a little ineffective at saving gold if the water is moving through it too fast. If you buy one make sure it has the power jet as opposed to the suction nozzel. They are limited but still an excellent tool for working shallow ground over bedrock and in areas of not much water.
