Review on πŸ”‹ Aquatop BREZA Battery Powered Air Pump with AC Power Failure Detector by Heidi Reese

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Drains batteries even when switched off. EXTREMELY LOUD and sounds like the motor is stalling or pumping all the time

I put a set of NEW batteries in then put the installation in the aquarium to one side. When I set it up after a few weeks and turned on the switch. both D batteries were DEAD! I added a new battery, tested it and it worked. Even though it's battery operated, it looks like it has a power surge, followed by a power outage and then a power outage, repeat that. Since it's designed to turn on during a power outage (which it does), use it I use it as a backup ventilation unit in my display aquarium in the event of a power failure. I have no faith in this block. I think I'm well behind the return time for him. I guess I'll leave it as a last resort in case of a long power outage. In the meantime I will buy another unit for backup coverage if the power goes out.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Good but not great
