A water gun using this system is pressurized by air being pumped and compressed into its reservoir. When the trigger is pulled, a valve is opened and the compressed air pushes the water out of the nozzle. [13] Super Soaker started with two pressurized reservoir water guns, and has continued to produce them in various shapes and sizes.
Due to the nature of the bladder, the stream produced is fairly constant, and has almost the same range and power throughout the entire shot, most streams dropping only one foot in range towards the end of a continuous shot, unlike most air pressure based water guns which exhibit a constant loss of pressure while the trigger is pulled.
Sprayers range in size from man-portable units (typically backpacks with spray guns) to trailed sprayers that are connected to a tractor, to self-propelled units similar to tractors with boom mounts of 4–30 feet (1.2–9.1 m) up to 60–151 feet (18–46 m) in length depending on engineering design for tractor and land size.

The truck chassis were provided by Mercedes-Benz and the water spray devices were also made by German firm Ziegler. [21] The three water cannon cost HK$27 million to purchase, a sum that was criticised as overpriced. [citation needed] The vehicles were frequently used by police on participants and bystanders during the 2019–20 Hong Kong ...

Originally made popular by the Super Soaker 50, [9] [10] pressurized reservoir systems are still common for small water guns. A water gun using this system is pressurized by air being pumped and compressed into its reservoir. When the trigger is pulled, a valve is opened and the compressed air pushes the water out of the nozzle. [11]
