Review on πŸ”‹ TERA PUMP AA Battery-Operated Hand Fuel Pumps by Fernando Wolford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Better than just watering.

This is my third fuel pump. The first had a sensor at the end of the filling tube to prevent overfilling. The sensor stops working, causing the pump to stop filling. To fix the pump and keep it running, simply cut and strip the wire, then twist all three wires together and the pump will work again. The Tera pump uses 2 AA batteries and I prefer D or C battery pumps. I also have an extra Tera pump for water use. If you've ever tried pouring a five-gallon or even smaller gas can of gas into your car, tractor, or generator instead of pouring obscenities or pouring and yelling, you must be a miracle worker. How long it takes to empty a five-gallon container depends on whether you're filling it from scratch or to the same or higher level than what you're filling. It takes 2+ to 4+ minutes to pump five gallons, which is an approximate time. How long will I use this pump? Once a week. The life of the batteries depends on their condition. What I've noticed is that not all 2AAs last as long as others and rechargeable batteries about the same, so I can't comment on using more batteries. I don't care if it works and I always have four batteries with me.

Pros
  • Outstanding design
Cons
  • Functionality
