Resun Waver-15000

[HippieSmell]

Anyone have some info or experience on these pumps? They seem to move a lot of water and includes a controller for a very reasonable price.

They are not available in the US yet

Apparently this one is 110V, should work in the US.

I know it's annoying to keep bumping, sorry.

Yeah lets get this going, we need test users.

i'd buy it from that ebay seller, but $45 for shipping!? that's a bit too much right now if you're not totally in need for it.

we need to find someone who already has one, either in the US or outside.

The biggest plus about this pump outside of its great power and low price is it does appear to be a low voltage ***DC*** pump. which means, it could very well be used to make waveboxes and shouldn't have much of a problem w/ being turned on and off...

Here's a link to another site. link
Here's another that will have to be translated. I tried to link the translated page but it wouldn't work:

Yeah, that's the only thing stopping me from getting it too.

The shipping is so high because these come from China, no one in the USA is selling them yet.

How controllable are these units? Is there a night mode or a feed mode?

What size tank do you have and how do you like the flow on the resun?

TIA

 

[HippieSmell]

Nice pics quangtam. In the second pic, is that a maxijet magnet in comparison? If it is, that Resun magnet is huge.

 

[quangtam7]

The flow does not increase gradually, it jumps from low to med to high adn back to low, you can adjust the time for each setting, there is no night mode. It is not strong as I expected at high setting, may be because of large opening (>2"), but I don't think it is 4000 gph (they should have used 2 blade prop for stronger flow). There is no way to take the prop off the magnet.

found these a while ago, and didnt know what kind of wave maker it was, saw this thread and was like "hey! ive seen a vid of that!"

doesnt show much.. but yeh

I have been using one for a couple of weeks. I agree it does not appear to move as much water as the 6100. It goes from slow to medium to fast, min times for each are around 5 secs. A bit too long to get up much of a wave motion
The flow does appear to be wider and less direct than the 6100

But for the price here, around 1/6th of my 6100 with controller, no complaints

What do you think the max flow is, in your estimation?

How do you test the flow of a stream pump?
