I gotta build one of these!
It was a lot of fun to put together. I honestly can’t think of a cheaper more efficient way of mixing. For less than $150 in parts and less than 10 watts, with a few small changes this will also work to mix salt in the 50 gallon. Same outer dimensions just twice as tall. For the salt side I think I’ll route a 5” diameter hole in the center so the magnets won’t have to go through the wood. This will fix the disconnect at higher rpm’s.
I’m now rethinking the plumbing for the mixing station. Not having an external pump will save a ton of space and plumbing. I already have an Ecotec M1 for water mixing and a few mag drives I keep handy just in case. I’ll probably use the M1 internal to the RO and have a quick disconnect valve with a short hose to either fill the Kalk or Salt containers. I’m going AWC on both tanks. But for filling or times when I need to do a traditional WC I can just plumb internal to the salt container one of the mag drives which has better head pressure with another quick disconnect.
