Crob5965 July 12, 2014 July 12, 2014 has anyone ever heard of these? I was digging around on Ebay for some loc line parts and came across these http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=281368424062&ssPageName=ADME:X:BOCOR:US:1123 they look small and sleek and very affordable, but seems too good to be true, not sure if it's worth taking a gamble on, I have never owned a dosing system so I dont really know what i'm looking for.
wildcrazyjoker81 July 12, 2014 July 12, 2014 I can one up you and show you the jebao dosing unit. http://www.fish-street.com/jebao_auto_dosing_pump_dp-4
dave w July 12, 2014 July 12, 2014 The one you link to looks like a decent unit for $129. It is a nice feature to have the electronic controls with the dosing pumps. If you are electronically inclined you could go much cheaper with a $25 arduino mega that would handle up to 50 dosing pumps. Then some short program sketches would allow all the flexibility of this pump plus a lot more. The dosing pumps themselves look like the kind that are available on ebay for less than $10 each. So in short I think if you just want 3 dosing pumps and easy controls this is a good deal, and would be the right setup for most people. If you decide to get much more in pump quantity, size and complication (and have programming skills) then the arduino mega would get things done cheaper.

J/K thanks that one looks a little better, I like Jebao products, the LCD is a nice feature providing it is user friendly.

Crob5965 July 12, 2014 Author July 12, 2014 I have a few Jebao products and they seem pretty reliable so far, I will most likely be trying one out.
Neto July 13, 2014 July 13, 2014 I have the marine color 3 head dosing pump. So far so good. Make sure the one you get, you can calibrate Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Crob5965 July 20, 2014 Author July 20, 2014 I have one and so far so good Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk The Jebao dosing pump?
Crob5965 July 20, 2014 Author July 20, 2014 cool, I just saw another thread talking about them and ERC is offering them for $99 which you really cant beat, I have absolutley zero experience with auto dosing pumps, so unless it's somehow worse than remembering to manually pour cap fulls of alc and cal in my sump every night, I have a feeling i'm going to be happy thanks for the response
Tracy G July 20, 2014 July 20, 2014 I ordered a second one for my frag tank. Great item Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

kkozak81 July 20, 2014 July 20, 2014 Where is the link to GB It's in the product review thread. Ending tonight.
Crob5965 July 27, 2014 Author July 27, 2014 Where is the link to GB I had no idea there was a thread I just PM'd Richard, I believe he ordered extra if you didnt make the cut off and were still interested.
