Let’s discuss Jebao

[quickreefer]

It's the same stuff.

Any idea why the magnets are so weak ? Says under 15 mm my tank is 13mm and it won’t even hold on my ato

Frankly never had that problem, so I couldn't tell ya. But when I do run into that issue with other stuff, I buy some stackable magnets from Amazon and place them on the dryside of the magnet.

I don’t think the wife would go for that got this absolutely gorgeous tank and gonna have 4 inches of magnets sticking out… I’m just confused as to why the magnet is so weak it’s suppose to be 2k gallons per hour

I had a sicce wifi 6 pump that was loud and never seemed to quiet down. Socce sent a replacement impeller and then pump, but the issue remained. I purchased a jebao for less than a third of the price of the sicce and it has been silent since day one. Only about a year into ownership of it, but no issues so far. Honestly, even if I have to replace the pump befire the sicce would have failed, the silence is worth it and I can buy 3 for the price of one sicce.

Kinda feel like I got scammed on Amazon bc the box in the corner where it says jebao is says jecod

Yeah I've noticed the jecod stuff, i avoid it

That isn't normal if it really is jebao, I would contact them. My magnets have been overpowered. I've never had to reach out to them, lets find out what they can do.

I wonder if the magnet is cracked. Its rare but can happen. I dropped a magnet on the floor once and went to put it back on and noticed that it wouldn't stay like before. I have a few extras laying around so I popped one of the extras on. After looking at the magnet closer I decided to open it up and found the actual magnet broken.


Edit: Also out of the Jebao pumps that I own, the "Nero" style pumps seem to have the weakest magnets for whatever reason. Can't say I've tried them on 1/2" glass but they have been just fine for me. I can put the magnets on each side of my hand and they will hold. My hand is definitely thicker than 1/2"

Ya idk decided not to mess with it and ordered other they wouldn’t even hold on my ato which is like less than 1/4

I'm running two MLW-30, one MCP-120, and an MDP-20000

They've all been fantastic. Amazed honestly at how silent the MCP is. Wifi can be tricky to get connected the first time, but once it's connected it's bulletproof.

I'm planning, at some point, of attempting to flash Esphome or Tasmota to one of the controllers to play around with.

I have all Jebao wavemakers OW-25, SW-8 and 4 gyres.
They mount without problem on 19mm glass.

Must be some issue with yours.

 

[Uncle99]

I just had two of the jebao elw-20m delivered and the magnet is no where near string enough to hold it on my tank in fact it won’t even hold it on rhe ato tank and it’s a 1/4 of the thickness

You mean SLW-20
Will hold on almost twice as much glass as yours.
If these are true SLW-20, then 10mm is the max.

They probably mean ELW

Isn’t jecod rebranded jebao?

No that’s exactly what is on the box elw-20m and it will not stick

To be sure that there is no misunderstandings how to mount the pump. The part that is in red in this figure can be taken away from the pump and it is the part that should be on the outside - dry side of the glass. Note the rubber damping - black arrow

This part - in blue - can be placed between the pump and the inside of the glas in order to tilt the pump. Both are magnetic

Sincerely Lasse

 

[quickreefer]

Had that completely removed to make sure and it still wouldnt attach even to a thin ato tank

Jebao and Jecod are the same company.

Three pumps in my system right now are jebao. I have had 0 issues, other than the plastic cover over the controllers microswitch on 1 powerhead cracking.
