So I have been talking with Chris at Reeflo Pumps on and off the last few months and he is sitting on a number of Baldor motor pumps that he's offering a smoking deal on (because the new aluminium motors they come with now match the size of the AOSmith motors, so they are a better fit for people who are replacing AOSmith motor Darts in stands and other tight spaces, etc. With Baldor having an amazing reputation for longevity, I thought, what the heck, I'll go for it, it's a new pump for 1/2 retail.)

So with that preamble aside ...

Oh my dear GAWD those pumps are insanely enormous!! I had no idea looking at pictures of Darts with Baldors how ridiculously enormous they are!!! Here I am all excited to look at "my new reef toy that came in the mail today .. whee!! *rip rip rip open open open* .... Ohhhhhh my."

I'll have to post some side by side photos of the two versions of pumps .. it is hard to imagine they are the same model they are so different in size.
