Review on 🐠 Clear PVC Tubing: Ideal 10 Ft Water Hose for Fish Tanks, Aquariums, and Air Lines (1/2" ID, 5/8" OD) by Jasmine Oliver

It's ID What I need

Okay I'm a bit old fashioned as I have a SBIG ST 9 XE CCD camera which I recently bought new. Of course, they don't make this camera anymore, so there are no more accessories. I bought a camera with water cooling. So the camera came with nozzles installed. However, the water pump and hose required for this setup were another optional accessory I was planning on adding soon. Due to myriad personal health issues and other life issues, I just forgot about it, at least until recently. I contacted SBIG and in fact they no longer support this camera or the water cooled accessories they once carried. So I started looking for water cooling. I have found an acceptable submersible pump (aquarium type) that meets the requirements. However, the outside diameter of the nozzle and the various adapters that came with the pump were different and larger than the nozzles on the chamber. I checked my camera manual and found the correct pump and nozzle size requirements in this equation. Went to Revain to find the right ID size and product. It took me a while to receive it due to some delays, but it arrived in great condition. I did a quick check to make sure the tube had the correct ID and it was! I was finally able to complete my project of adding water cooling to my SBIG ST-9XE CCD camera.

Pros
