Hi all,
I recently purchased a Versa pump to use as a feed for my calcium reactor but ran into a few things and I was curious on other peoples experience so far with the versa.
1. Only one of the push connect fittings actually locks in place. The other side, regardless of using the barbed fitting or regular RO tubing, does not lock in place. Has anyone had any issues with this leaking?
2. On continuous mode it seems to be locked at a max of 200 ml/min even though the pump is advertised at 300 ml/min. On manual mode it lets you go up to 300 ml/min as a setting choice, but I cannot figure out how to have it dose continuously on the manual setting - any suggestions? I do not need that flow rate right now but would like to have the option in the future.
3. How loud is this thing supposed to be at high rates? The video below is at 200 ml/min and this thing is LOUD. I can hear it above any other piece of equipment on my tank and from halfway across the room. Is this normal or a defective unit?
