Has anyone found or used a dosing pump that will deliver approx 1ml/min @12v without changing the voltage?
There are many 12 v dosing pump that can be tuned to deliver at that flow rate , any particular reason not to change voltage / tune it? You won’t nedd any fancy electronics and controller , it can be just a simple potentiometer

Just that most of the reviews I had read, seemed to be complaints about consistency (the cheaper amazon ones) and they has pretty poor info for tubing sizes to flow rate and or voltage flow rates. I'd rather pay for a fixed repeatable pump even if at a bit higher cost than the $12 ones I see everywhere. I may just use the BRS's @110 and use the timer function to just turn the outlet for it on for X mins per hour.
