I have not used this for long so not sure of longevity, but holy cow. I have a 3/4 banjo camlocked hose into SH tank and into a 3/4 banjo fitting on the pump itself.

I used to transfer using the Ryobi battery powered transfer pump. I would go through 2-3 a year after rinsing religiously with water. Hoping this one lasts longer but holy cow. Transfered like 30 gallons of SH in must have been under 3 minutes. Total game changer. Would have taken me a good 20 to do so with Ryobi.

…dont ask me what I paid in shipping :face_vomiting:

Looks to have 316 stainless steel and Poly inner workings, so I am sure it will last just fine against corrosion but i’d still rinse with water every time for my own sanity just because of the price tag. A 17gpm transfer sounds like a huge step up from your typical diaphragm pumps for sure! They also thought through it with things like an extended 12 ft power cable. It would bug me having to put caustics too close to an outlet. Extensions are a thing but that’s a nice touch.

Thanks for sharing!

Definitely rinsed with water afterwards! Too spendy not to take care of it
