LOL BillA, Grumpy again?
I guess we are all an unending sourse of ignorance. You know that one fool can ask more then a hundred wise men can answer.....
(and some times I think it's quite foolish to play with this water stuff, but boy, loads of fun, and nice temps!)
Getting back on topic again... IMHO it's a pain in the ... I've been looking though posts about pumps, specifications, etc. for about 2 months now. (and I've seen a lot!)
There are good pumps out there, but at a very high price.
There are also cheap aquarium pumps, with one downside, the impeller and housing ain't made for high head.
Sure, the MCP600 has the right impeller, but there is no MCP1200.
If I look at the stuff I want to cool, and the number of rad's I use, I need 2 MCP600...... (and with the current problems and availibillity in the Nehterlands, I gues I need to skip on them)
One nice thing I found, is that a lot of pumps are produced by the same factories, just a different label, and sometines a differend impeller, and there we have a new brand, with all different prices. I've seen the MD15 for 80 euro's, but also for a 175..... just a different direction of usage. Who makes the MCP600?
If I look at the prices of aquarium and pond pumps, there must be a "cheap" one, with the right "high head" impeller.
(I just haven't found it...) The ones I've seen are in normal aquarium type about a 50 euro's, and with High Head about 175 euro's! (same motor, other casing and impeller)
I hate this!
There must be some way to get arround this.
I don't mind spending a 150 bucks on a pump. Currently I have 2 L20 in serial but that is about half the pressure I need.....
