Stihl SR450 (or if you can find a used SR420) seem to be the standard.

Solo makes a pretty good standard hand pump backpack sprayer, I have one with a wand extension that gives a really nice reach and coverage.

We went with a 24v lithium battery powered 4 gallon backpack sparser by Chapin. Works great, plenty of power shoots and micro sprays a large distance. Very happy with it!! Highly recommend.

The Stihl 250 work well and is lighter than the 420 for powered blower.

Buy a good one you get what you pay for. When I go cheap to save a few bucks I almost always regret it.Stihl 250 is great
