School boy mistake number 1 this morning....
Bench charged my battery last night (i'm sure a few of you know where this is going now) put it back in the van this morning and........yep, i out the negative wire on the positive terminal and the negative on positive......
Utter utter moron!!!!!

Shocking story. I don't think anything positive will come out of this. Try not to dwell on the negatives.

what happens when you do this?does it fry your controller?does it affect battery and pump or can you just wire them up direct bypassing the controller?

Watt?

I thought you was gonna say drove off with it still plugged in, getting it wrong left me feeling flat.

It can make your controller go pop but all you should have to do is replace the fuse.......if you remembered to fit one in the first place! ;D

do you now want to tell everyone about school boy error number 2 and 3 today ;D ;D ;D ;D

Liking the jokes, i'll be passing many coats on later!!! ;D
So this morning ive hooked up 2 hosereels from one battery....the auto cal on the controller is about as useful as a smack in the face so for the first 2 hours, rather than dead ending, the pump sounds like chitty chitty bang bang (replace the 'ch' with 'sh' if you wish!!)
Managed to sort that, so i figure why stop there!as if the day isn't already winding me up, lets do something else.....
Next house i get water into the doorbell....
You'd think this shouldnt be a problem, or at least if a problem occured the doorbell just wouldn't work....
Oh no!!! This doorbell decided it was on speed, and played a crappy 'ding dong' theme over and over and over and over and over and over....
Take the battery out, dry the inside, fix it back up.....
'Ding dong' over and over and over and over....
Half hour of faffing about, lots of swear words later we decide the doorbell wins...
So just picked up a new doorbell ready to be fitted tomorrow
Deep breath, count to 10....
They say it happens in 3's!
P.s
Frank and Bobplum can do one ;D ;D ;D ;D

I clean the windows for a customer who has a Friedland bell and the name friedland is actually branded on the bell. For years i referred to her as Mrs. Friedland, as i thought that was her name! She didn't correct me ever, she said it really used to make her laugh and she hadn't the heart to tell me! :-[

I've done that too. I prefer working without a flow controller now. Bin it.

I didnt to be honest mate
I brought i wicks one as the original was wicks and so it should be (in theory) more likely to pair up wirelessly with the chime box

Just thought I pick up on the Cal, The control and pump may struggle if you running two lines and poles. This is because of the pressure difference between the two poles. Water pressure will want to follow the easiest route so in general will flow to the lower pole 1st meaning less pressure for the higher pole.
This leaves the pump struggling to provide enough water and pressure in some cases. The control is trying to manage two different pressure settings at the same time which may mean you pump drops in out of DE as pressure changes between the two lines
The control can manage this short term, I would suggest Calibration is done with both poles extended to the same max height you expect to be working at.
In an ideal world one pump/control per pole is much more efficient as the pumps are not working as hard and draw less current.
The controller has a number of features protecting it from a miss wire. Fitting the fuse as here will help protect the controller as the fuse blows and not the reverse protection diode, correct the polarity replace the fuse and away you go.
