Recently purchased one just to see if they might have updated it and surprisingly the auto stop feature actually works not at the line where it states instead it stops the instant the water (or whatever) touch the tip of the sensor and if fills a bit faster but still haven't fixed the issue once it gets air!!! Still leaves water in the pump but not as much in your video... Well at least there was some improvements lol Oh and another thing I found it at Home Depot for like $5 (clearance sale) but Sam's Club has it for $15
I bought one of the harbor freight ones. They are all pretty much the same. The biggest problem is they are made pretty cheap and fall apart after a few uses. The simple hand siphon tube will probably outlast all of them for a fraction of the cost. They do actually work decent but like you said you can't get every drop out of a tank and you can't fit them into smaller places either. Basically its for siphoning gas, thicker liquids like oil tend to clog it up. And there's no way to clean it very well, or all of it anyway. So once you use it for gas, you probably wouldn't want to use it drain your fish tank or you'd kill any fish left in there.
ok just watched the video, so this is a cheap version of the Tera fuel pump. I have a Tera and it is awesome. Have had it for over a year and everything works including the auto stop. When I saw the ad i was hoping that it was the Tera and not a cheap CHINA made knockoff. work or not I WILL NOT be buying anything MADE IN CHINA!!! .... EVER!!!
I ordered two of the Turbo Pumps. Using them are great but have one problem. When the Pump is left unused the batteries go dead.I have no other problems the Auto stop works fine and it drains out my Gas cans pretty much there is some left.
I purchased 2 of the High Performance pumps and what a disappointment. The TV ad said it would pump oil at a rate of 2.5 gallons per minute. After 40 minutes it only pumped less than 1 quart. I changed batteries, moved the unit up, down and every which way. Raised the pump, lowered the pump and still nothing. I called the company that sells them, (ONTEL) and told them I wanted my money back. They agreed and yesterday I sent them back via FEDEX. My suggestion is to forget even contemplating the purchase. Just another piece of junk made in China.
I bought one for my hydroponic tubs and it worked 3 times and just stopped working. I have changed batteries but it wont turn on anymore. I searched on here for troubleshooting but there doesn't seem to be any.
This is a great little pump and works for me! But I ordered two, was sent 3. 1 lasted 2 weeks, 2nd one lasted 4 weeks. I'm on last pump. I'll order more with the hope that they are improved and will last for more than the first two.
I bought 2 four years ago. I use it quite a bit, especially during the summer, obviously. I've NEVER had a problem with mine and I gave the second one to my neighbor and he likes it too ! IF/WHEN mine quits I'll buy another one in a heartbeat, Mine always shuts off automatically, but, in my opinion, only a fool would trust that feature ... even at the gas pump. YOU TUBE has THOSE videos too I'm sure ...lol, AND there's a REASON most gas pumps no longer have that feature. Not sure what you're expecting from this little pump ??? IMO, this was pretty much an unfair evaluation of the TURBO PUMP. WHO would send their kid to fill a tractor with a 5 gallon can ( I KNOW IT WAS WATER) that they OBVIOUSLY CAN'T LIFT, and SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED to lift, EXTREAMLY DANGEROUS on many levels. For me, it sure beats lifting, and holding, a 5 gallon can of gas. If you want to get rid of yours, I'LL TAKE IT.

Worked fine for me

Don't buy products that use regular batteries prefer lithium 18650
Who sends a kid out with a 5 gallon jug to fill up a car with gas???🙄
Moms from Jersey
And without a spout on the can.
surely, those boys aren't just wasting fuel. Please tell me that's water
"Turbo Syphon Technology!"...………..Really? Seriously? XD
I got one and it has worked perfectly. The shut off works every time but I wouldn't leave it unattended.

That's great but you don't normally have a choice.China manufactures everything these days.
Used mine several times does what it claims. Do not like idea cleaning after each use
Harbor freight had the exact same thing for years guess someone stole the idea and slapped in as seen on tv
Hey Diff Family! lol Just wanted to let you know that you are in my latest video! I hope you like it
Very cool, and thanks for the kind words! I might start drinking out of a pot now.
Diff Family Reviews glad I’m changing the world for the better! XD
Spilling gas is dangerous and can start a fire if you power your engine close to the puddle.
Makes a person want to smoke around it while using!
I ordered two of the Turbo Pumps. Using them are great but have one problem. When the Pump is left unused the batteries go dead.I have no other problems the Auto stop works fine and it drains out my Gas cans pretty much there is some left.
Is anybody spills gas like they are in the video they shouldn't even be driving or be near gas!
You really think that was gas?
Anybody used this on an aquarium? I just seen this on a commercial.
Quality video work good job
Thanks 👍
Typical invention for something you don’t need
Thank you for the update.

Thanks for the review ! Inwas going to buy 3 for the auto stop function! Now i know it doesnt works
Glad I could help.
I hope that’s not your son, yet if he is, you will be saving a lot of money on college as he may not be a candidate ;)
IT IS HIS SON!
Damn!!! I almost waste $30 bucks and 3 weeks waiting period for one of this pumps!!! For $10 bucks ill get one from harbor crap.- thanks!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I bought one for my hydroponic tubs and it worked 3 times and just stopped working. I have changed batteries but it wont turn on anymore. I searched on here for troubleshooting but there doesn't seem to be any.
They charged me for 4 pumps and I can't reach them by phone for a refund, This is a SCAM I wasted $50.00
I got the Harbor Freight one for $10 and it does without the features this has that don’t work.
It's a piece of junk, purchased one for fuel transfer on my aircraft, worked about five times, and quit...
Curious to know country of origin? I’m guessing it’s China but not sure, thanks. Oh and great review btw.
Tried to refill the lawn mower, burns the lawn mower and half of the state!
Ever tried safety first?
I got the buy one get one and it was $28 shipping was free. Haven't had to use it, i know now what to expect.
really fun and quality video! keep it up :)
Thank you!
Just wanna say, "hi"..
Joel Benitez hi.

Maybe

How can I get a
Thanks for your honesty
My pleasure
I don't see the point of a useless product ? Using kids ? Lol
Your sniveling because it took 21 seconds to siphon a gallon instead of 20 seconds. Jeez.
I couldn't agree with you more. 1 second isn't that much of a difference
how good is this for aquariums ????
It would work great for an aquarium.
you only allow reviews from people who have bought and/or used the product.
ok now I get it. the review was the video and down here are peoples comments. ok.
3.24.21
Now people can siphon other peoples gas from cars
GREAT JOB - SUBSCRIBED!
Thank you. Very informative.
Thanks

What's with the commercial showing some one pumping from the lawn mover into a gas can? Who does that?
Correction siphoning from lawn mower.
I do this in the winter to drain the gas from my lawn mower
Sounds good...for crime

What’s the best electric water pump out there?
TheMoises1213 , I’ve only tested this one so not really sure. I’d go with the comparable one on Amazon.
Lol
Thanks!
Great review.
