My black tank flush valve was installed backwards and by the time I realized this and corrected it, the warranty period was over and 'stuff' had plugged it, making it useless.

So, what is the best wand for cleaning black tanks?

Camco and Valterra make them, maybe others. I get the impression from videos that the camco one has  a weak spray (?). 

Comments are appreciated.

I have the CAMCO wand. But - I also disconnected my hose to the flush at the tank, routed a 1/2" hose to a hose barb with a bracket to the drivers side and installed a flush near the black water drain. Not happy with a flush on opposite as drain.

Hmmm.  No suggestions.

This is usually seen when one product is unquestionably superior to another. When they are pretty similar, partisans argue back and forth and in this forum, people are not shy to share their opinions.

So, is there any one wand that is superior to the others??

From the internet, the Valterra seems to be more powerful and effective and I certainly need both.

Lurkers, don't be shy, now.

Both Valterra and Camco make a flexible wand, I looked at both and bought CAMCO, like fact head has two ports and it is brass. The cheapest is Valterra.
