Very Short Life: Barrel and Hand Pumps

After seeing this on TV and having a lot of gas station tools, I decided to try one. First use was to fill my lawn mower. Everything was like on TV. A big smile on my face. It only took a few seconds to pump in about a gallon and a half. Disable everything. After 2 days I decided to try it on my old Ford tractor. 4 gallons of gas and the same great results. Three days and it's time to mow the lawn again. Went out expecting a quick and easy tank fill. Everything is ready to go and nothing. I checked to see if the battery contacts were somehow lost, still nothing. Well, I packed new Duracell batteries again, a little disappointed in their longevity but hoping again for easy, quick refills. Press the power button. Nothing. I double checked to make sure I put them in correctly and reinstalled. Nothing. Shake the auto-off to see if it sticks, nothing. I hung it up at the store to make sure no fuel got stuck in the motor or hose. The short time I had and it actually worked was great. When I sent it back I was surprised that there wasn't even an option to send a replacement. I liked it so much that I tried it again, but it struck me as odd that I was approved for a return in seconds but for the first time didn't have the option to just get another. I hope I only got one dud, but I might try another one before I get frustrated with this one. If you buy them, make sure you try them out very quickly and several times before your return window closes on you.

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
