Ecotech nock off (1 Viewer)

[SuperJay]

I just saw these wavemakers on Amazon. The first I've seen beside Ecotech without a cord in the tank. Has anyone tried these out? Is this new?
$139
$159
$199
depending on the size you want.
This seems like a WAY better price!

They’ve been out and people like them. You’re at the mercy of a chinese app is the only downside I can see.

They’ve been on Aliexpress direct from Jebao for a while.

The only thing I have heard neg so far is has a tendency to fall of down to mag strength and switch back and forth

A British YouTuber I watch (Reef Dork) speaks highly of them. If you can get over the likely patent infringement and crappy Chinese app, as Ben mentioned. Or at least it seems like they were a tad early (I think 2026 was the patent expiration per some posts I read).

Checkout the reef dork review though.

Do you know what glass thickness it was. I was under the impression the mags were a bit light for 3/4

I'm most like going to order a couple after Christmas and stuff settles...

If you havent seen how ecotech pumps are starting to fail faster and faster, I'm sure the jebao is as good. Or better.
Look at how the Nero pumps came out and had cracking plastic, exposing metal, and if that wasnt enough, the intake holes were big enough to suck in a vlamingii tang. Lol
The jebao copycat (slw/mlw series) came out shortly after and had none of those problems.

Really, is that on the newer ones?
My newer ones are only 3 years old now so we will see. But my 14 year old MP40 is still working slick.
Watch me jinx myself now

Yeah man I have 4 and every one the dry side has gone noisy and needed new bearings or replacement. Never an issue with a driver or psu tho.

New Dryside costs almost double what 1 of these pumps costs.
