cool, didn't really care since my wp25 seems to run fine on the ecotech adapter. just hope it isn't too defective/used and craps out on me.

My WP25 seems to be failing, water flow is way down. I tore it down for inspection and nothing looked out of the norm; there was some algae on the magnet side of the impeller but no scoring on the shaft or anything visible that would reduce performance so drastically (roughly 25% of what it was doing yesterday). I've only had it running for 2 months now.
Not sure what direction to go at this point, I'm hesitant to try another but was very happy with it prior to the failure.

Is it still slow after cleaning it? I get reduced flow too when there's stuff between the magnet and the casing but it returns to full flow after cleaning.

How do you guys clean them? Is it an overnight soak in vinegar/water solution?

I use diluted muriatic acid. 5 min of soaking, brush and rinse and you are done.

I scrub the slitted parts and the hole for the impeller with a toothbrush and clean the impeller with the magnet by hand (under running water). Takes about 5 minutes or less.

What is the acid/water ratio? I always wanted to try hydrochloric acid but didn't want to risk mixing a strong solution.

I never actually measured how much acid I used. Stored bought muriatic acid is about 31%. I just pour 3-4 oz of acid into a gal of water. Be careful and don't inhale the fume generated initially. After cleaning rinse with plenty of fresh water.

Important safety tip, pour the acid into the water, not the other way around.

Exactly. Basic chemistry. Always AW (acid to water) and not WA (water to acid).

Just out of curiosity , and after seeing this power supply, how much of ecotech marine's stuff is made in china? Say for example, in an mp 10-60 , is the wet/dry side also made in china? Is the control module made in china? I guess the reason I'm asking is because of all the people who claim ecotech to be so high and mighty USA company yet outsource their products manufactured in china. (I'm not bashing ecotech and their hard work and research) Just trying to confirm what I already believe.
Hey Guys,...has anyone got the new double pump controller FishStreet is offering if you buy two pumps at the same time? And do they charge you the high shipping rate from HK even if the pumps are coming from the Jersey warehouse?
I want to place an order with them. I'm looking into a couple WP60's...is fishstreet the best deal right now?Thanks---Rick

Ya I didn't think so, but on their check out site they want 66 bucks for shipping. If I hit paypal my card will get that charge. How do you get the nj shipping charge? Thanks---Rick
