Title: Back pack pump.
Post by: Lee GLS on August 25, 2014, 02:00:06 pm

Can anyone recommend a cheap replacement pump for a backpack?

I've got the ESR16B

No problem Lee.

We have found the pumps used on these backpacks are generally pretty hardy.

I used it the other day and put it back on the van, then a while later I heard the pump running even though nothing was plugged in and it wasn't pumping water out so I turned it off and didn't think anymore of it, went to use it today, and it's only pumping a slow trickle on full speed.

I assume the pressure switch failed and now the pump running like is was and knackered the pump.
