From the pic, it is labeled lifetech. I have searched google and many other engines with no luck. can anyone supplie more info please. I would like to find head charts and most important its wattage.

the GPH is great and so is the price. it appears to be very small.

hfs, thats one hell of a gph for that price. i'll be watching this thread. anybody got more info?

slater3333uk · Feb 17, 2003

that must b a mistake shouldnt it be 700lph

NeoMoses · Feb 17, 2003

No mistake, it's really rated at 700 GPH or 2650 LPH. Max head is rated at 3m. Also, this is a somewhat large pump. It weighs approximately 4 lb. and is approximately 6" x 3.5" x 5".

It runs smoothly and quietly, and appears to be of higher quality than Via Aqua pumps, but I have no long-term study of reliability. I will not say that it will rival the Eheim pumps for reliability, but it's a great Bang for the Buck.

is it a good idea to have a pump that is that powerful?

the reason i ask is that i have got a huge 3720lph pump just wating to go into a w/cool system.

Ct. Strangelove · Feb 17, 2003

the wattage is proberly sky high for its GPH. but on place it does not come close to Eheims is the EMI shielding! Thats the bottom line difference for some people. like me, but still............

SkiFletch · Feb 17, 2003

as long as you use hose clamps yes, it is fine to use a pump that powerful

I'm using a 642GPH Rio 1700 and it's running just fine (just can't rest the pump next to the monitor, or it flickers a little) so I'd think a 700GPH pump would work just fine.

Ct. Strangelove · Feb 18, 2003

there is no doubt that the pump will work, but what are the specs? Its only $30, so i think i will get it n e wayz.

i have the 500 gph pump from there and i find it quite nice. i would like to go and get 2 of those 700's.

Graystar · Feb 22, 2003

This is a mistake. There are pumps on other websites that look exactly like it that are rated 700LPH, which is 185GPH.

50" head rating is good, though.

Power comsumption is 11W.

It's 3.5" x 2" x 3"

Greystar post proof, Many pump designers make similar looking pumps (usually in the same line, ie Ehiem) plus NeoMoses has posted that the Pump is 6" x 3.5" x 5" not 3.5" x 2" x 3"

I'm sorry, but this pump is rated at 2650 L/H, or 700 GPH and a max head of 3m. I know that from the outside it looks like every other mag-drive pump ever made. It's what's inside the plastic covering that counts.

MAn, how many watts is that badboy putting out? Something tells me it will add a couple degrees to yoru coolant.

MichaelMu · Feb 23, 2003

Well, if you've actually ordered this exact pump from this dealer, then I stand corrected.

I was going by two things. First, the shipping weight listed is 1.2 pounds. That is shipping weight of a pump 1/4 the size of most 700 GPH pumps, which are usually between 2.5 - 4 pounds when shipped. Second, the barbs look really big in relation to the rest of the pump, making the pump pretty small compared to others of similar capacity.

NeoMoses · Feb 23, 2003

ahh, thanks for the heads up. the weight is actually 4 lb. it's changed now.

Has anyone seen THIS pump b4?
