    In Canada, prices are $153 vs $666 ( not a joke ) plus tax, which means there is 0% chance I'm spending over $500 on a single pump. And I'm almost positive most reefers feel the same way, build quality or not. Jebao pumps are great! Can't wait to see your next comparison

      Yeah, Ive used some very cheap Jerepet pumps on Amazon that sort of look like a ai Nero. But they are only like 70-80ish bucks for a 3400 gph pump that works great

      @@cantusaurus8530 German 'Premium' brand 'Aqua Medic' uses the same design, too. But to compare, the Jebao SLW-10 (or MLW-10) are around 100 Euro a pop, the smallest AquaMedic Smart Drift 3.1 is 160 Euro. And the AM ones are utter shit when it comes to adding them into WiFi for app control, and they don't have bluetooth or AP mode as alternative.

    The magnet inside the wetside can indeed be accessed. However, it’s not as readily accessible as it is on the VorTech. If you look closely, you’ll notice some “click tabs” around the circular base of the wetside. These must be depressed to release, and then the magnet can be accessed. I used a small screwdriver to press the tabs.

    @Brett5106 22 дня назад +1

    The impeller was loose on the jacod because it's built in reverse of the mp40. Meaning the ceramic rod is attached to the cage on the jacod, where the mp40 is attached to the magnet side.

    I bought the dmp 30 for my tank and it works great so far! Can't even hear it at all either. Glad they ripped off ecotech, people can't afford these insane prices from ecotech. I'm not sure where you got yours from, but mine has some differences compared to yours, it doesn't have the adapter nor the extra circles in the cage like yours either.

    Nice unboxing Alex 👌🏼 Tbh seeing it I think for the price it looks decent, I'm sure once they have sold I few they may even improve the cage further, I think the Dmp-30 for me will try one & probably order another soon after ☺️

    Ordered a 40 off the back of your news item on the the live stream.
    Mine has been stuck in Customs for the last 3 days.
    Have 3x mp40s on my 7 footer, always felt a bit more flow would beneficial.
    Think your negatives are fair enough, but at less than half the price I can live with that.
    Bit, the suction cups are a massive pro to me, my first is going on the back wall, if I’m happy I’ll get another to go on the other side of the Weirbox.
    From what I’ve seen elsewhere I think a rundown on the app would be useful. Particularly if you can find a way to have fluctuating speed on “random mode”

  • @TomoBishBosh
    @TomoBishBosh 22 дня назад +1

    I’d be interested in the voltages of the power block and that it’s designed for UK voltages, I’d assume so but the fact it’s an American plug is concerning. Looks good can’t wait to see what your thoughts are when it’s in use, could it actually be a competitor?!

    • @trevorhart9348

    @ReefDrama 21 день назад

    I got my DMP 30 from Aliexpress as well, and that came with the correct 3 pin plug so I expect they either picked wrong and threw in an adapter or they ran out of UK ones and sent you an equivalent.
    I couldn't do an Ecotech comparison on my video, but you obviously get what you pay for. Isn't the DMP 40 the equivalent of the MP 60 ? 🤔

    • @ReefDorkXtra
      @ReefDorkXtra  21 день назад +1

      No, it's equivalent to the MP40. DMP-40 is rated at 20k lph, MP40 is "17k+" lph, MP60 is 34k lph.

    Not sure it's fair to say it feels poorer designed with the impellor movement when that movement is clearly designed in. "Differently designed" but not necessarily worse would be my take.
