can people rate these for me or am i better off buying seperate components etc and fitting as buying a third van today and didnt realise its been stripped of components etc so its just a bare pure freedom tank and cage
where is best to get a good deal on fitting it to decent standard with all the bits
-
I made my own using a sturdy plastic storage box with lid. thought the streamline boxes were a bit on the expensive side - but a good idea.
With a flow controller & a 85amp leisure battery mine still worked out cheaper than that.
-
On the same site you can buy a pump and controller for £123 so you are paying and extra £147 for the box!!!! More when you add on the VAT.

I have the streambox with digital flow controller great bit of kit had mine just over a year now and no probs at all ideal , everything is portable which appeals to me as l can take it out overnight in winter , mike
-
good point that mike is the pump decent enuf and gives you enough pressure

That looks more portable.But wonder how many hours you can work with that battery?
-
Those pumps tend to draw about 3 amps and that's a 17ah hour battery so you should get a good couple of days out of it.
