Post by: clean on August 03, 2009, 06:18:03 pm: Matt a lot of it is to do with the "litres per minute",that pump has a too high flow rate
the pump needs to be able to flow a certain amount of water per minute and with most using micro and minimore hose the pump will keep pulsing on and off instead of a "on flow" motion ;)

We have sold hundreds of that type and they are extremly reliable, an extra benifit is that the aph draw is very low so the battery can last days between charges.
