Thanks for your vid. I was looking at this for watering plants in harder to reach areas of the paddock - either directly pumping from a water source, or from a mobile tank. And perhaps a backup water pump if power is out. Would you still recommend it 3 years later?
Yes, I used it the other day to transfer over 10,000 litres of water. It ripped through the batteries but we had a few on charge and ready to go. It’s not super quick but definitely gets the job done,
Do you still use the supplied oil each time you run the pump?, is that oil safe for drinking water. Have you had to buy a new impeller yet, are they easily available and not too expensive?. I am seriously wanting to buy this pump.
Not sure about the oil question but if we’re going to pump drinking water I’d flush it out and use a few drops of a vegetable oil. Haven’t had to replace the impeller yet. My pump did come with a spare one. But not sure where you’d get one from. Looked online with no luck. In that it’s not a issue for me at the moment.
Yes it is pretty noisy but it is great for and makes short work of transferring water from containers or buckets into a caravan water tank. It’s way faster than our silent run pumps in our caravan

Fire fighting with that toy. ok sure go with that
100% we use it as a light weight portable unit on our farm buggy.
Also have our normal Rig but it’s a great little unit as a backup to our backup.

Gday mate. Nice vid. What's the longest hose you've run with this and still gotten decent pressure at the outlet ?
grassabrutta I’ve run a 30 meter garden hose and its been pretty good.
Also we’ve used a the hose and filter it come with, hooked up to a esky/cooler strapped to a quad bike to get into tight places
@@SilhouetteParkFarm for a nice day of fishing with a few tinnies I hope :)
So does the newer 9 ah batteries fit under the battery cover? Thanks.
Yes, just barely.
Would this work for using it as an oil pump to change the oil? I imagine it would however I would need a hose small enough to fit in the dipstick.
Hi there, is it capable of having a hose trigger at the outlet end or will that ruin it?
ALAIA there is no pressure switch on it, so it’s just on or off
Hey mate, thanks for the video
Where can I find that adapter for the 1 inch hose ?
D Masters should be able to put on together at any hardware store
How long dos it last continuously
Never actually timed it but a fair while
We bought one. Noisy as and quite heavy, not the best for caravanning.

Stop wasting your water man!
