Works as it should

Works great so far. I use it to transfer liquid hand sanitizer from a 55 gallon drum to our reusable wall stations at work.

They didn't even last a month

I bought 3 of these and ran them on June 8th. Today is June 24th and all three are dead. 2 of them started licking and the third just stopped pumping water.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not sure

Pretty good replacement

Pretty good replacement for expensive ATO pumps from Apex, Tunze etc. Note that it is slightly larger than advertised. So if you're short on space, this might not be for you.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • The list will go on.

Works great with aquarium pumps and filters

Connected to Arduino for PWM speed control. At full throttle it pumps water really fast and with enough pressure to get to my ceiling. Take precautions during the test to avoid watering the area.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • I'll be silent

Suitable for pump only

The pump itself was a decent item but the wire supplied was extremely poor quality and the base plate supplied had at least 6 pairs of pre-drilled holes and none matched, but as I only wanted the pump , I give it 3 stars when I need a solid construction, 1 star as it can burn cheap wire and you have to make your own mount for it if you want it to stay in place

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Suitable for
