Post by: Alex Gardiner on August 10, 2007, 07:39:50 pm: I would go for your first choice, it is better value and has a longer warranty.

Post by: Alex Gardiner on August 10, 2007, 08:47:33 pm: Hi m.b.s

Alex has just rung to say he's stuck in traffic. Apparently there has been an accident in Bodmin and he's going nowhere. Probably too much information but hey, I'm bored :). I mentioned your post and he has dictated a reply to me over the phone. How about that then!

"Technically you can just connect it up but it would be best to have a 10 amp in line fuse and some sort of in line switch. Both can be obtained from Halfords."

The man has spoken.

Post by: m.b.s. on August 10, 2007, 09:05:43 pm: thanks mrs a but when alex gets in can you tell him to read this as i am not sure hi alex so i put an inline 10 amp fuse on the red lead and also a on off swich on the red lead before or after the fuse holder also do i need to use a varystream controller or not with this pump i am using 6mm micra bore hose on reel cheers alex
Title: Re: alex new post for you
Post by: Alex Gardiner on August 10, 2007, 09:30:05 pm: It doesn't matter if the switch is before or after the fuse but I would put it after. You do not need a varistream with a 60 psi pump and 6 mm microbore.

Post by: m.b.s. on August 10, 2007, 09:38:55 pm: cheers alex i am about to order some stuff off of you but i was wonderingif you sell the3/8"screwto1/2" hose lock connections for the pump or just the barb ones
Title: Re: alex new post for you
Post by: Alex Gardiner on August 10, 2007, 09:42:16 pm: We only sell the hose barb type. The hozelock type do not offer a reliable airtight connection which can lead to pump problems.

Post by: m.b.s. on August 10, 2007, 09:46:47 pm: ok alex cheers how long for delivery of a few small things eg oclips reinforce hose also i need some jubilee clips for the pump but dont no what size to order als is it the 11-13mm o ring to join 2 microbore hoses together
Title: Re: alex need a reply before order
Post by: m.b.s. on August 10, 2007, 10:10:04 pm: are you there alex
Title: Re: alex need a reply before order
Post by: Alex Gardiner on August 11, 2007, 08:53:59 am: You're order will go out Monday morning. You've chosen the right size O rings to join two microbore hoses together. For the pump fittings you would need 12 mm - 20 mm Jubilee type clips. We can easily add that to your order if you would like.
