Review on πŸ”‹ TeraPump TRHA03 Battery Operated Pump with Buzzer – Powered by 2AA Batteries by Bob Kussmaul

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Slim design ruins a good idea

When I got it I was impressed with how it works - no need to hold a 5 gallon can to fill a generator in a snow storm - fantastic ! It looked a little flimsy but didn't promise commercial quality and is actually a low volume pump with a plastic tube. What can go wrong? After 6 applications and a 3 foot fall onto soft ground, he died. The contacts and the design of the battery compartment are incredibly poor. There is no way to reliably fix them. Battery wells aren't rocket science and at this price point this product shouldn't be that finicky - I've seen toys with much more durable wells.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • doesn't fit all
