Best Flow Mode for Jebao slw10 pumps?

[Reesj]

I recently got a SLW 10 for my narrow 50 gallon(36x21x13 lxhxw) tank setup. I know its a bit slow for the tank, however I have LPS and softies only.

I'm trying to decide which flow pattern to use. It doesn't really create a huge wave for my tank length, but seems to create a small back forth movement in w1 setting.
Currently I have it at random flow rate and pattern.

What do mode do you guys ue your pumps at ?

I dont have one of these. But other Jebao's
I do run all my pumps at 1 speed. They vari speeds based on location, and time on and off by location. I feel having them ramp up and down over and over (w1, w2.ect..) will wear them out quicker.

Yes I'm also a bit worreid about the wear and tear on the pumps. However I got this pump for the controllabilty by upgrading from my old AC pump. Had to pay over 3x the cost. So dont really want to put it in constant stream.
My ideal maybe is one where the speed varies every hour or so, rather than every few seconds..

PS: I want to change the topic title to Jeabo pumps rather than puting in the model. But unfortunetly can't now change the title. Many people might have Jeabo pumps, but not many with the specific model to vote i guess...
If a moderator is watching, please remove the 'slw 10' part from title :)

I'm curious too. I have an SLW-5 I want to run in my 9g tank. I want LOW flow.

Jebao's programming instructions are crap. Explanations of the different modes are crap. Plenty of unboxing videos on YoutTube, but no real reviews (more crap).

I was thinking of a pair of the SLW-10Ms for a new build, but info on the wifi version is even worse!

Someone must know SOMETHING, right?!

I’ve been using my SLW-20s on W2 mode for months, to great success, but now I’m considering switching to ELSE mode. Can’t hurt anything, right?

Using SLW10M in 50cmx35cmx25hcm nano tank( 42 liters) in Classic mode (guess it's W1 of the app.). Programmed it according to my light schedule in different hours with different flow/frequencies. Corals really loved it and i really enjoyed the scene. But as i wrote in another thread i got some faults( body stall and /wifi motherboard comm. errors) or just my bad luck.
