Default Yippee!!! - Got my second vortech

Yesterday, I got my second MP40W, this one is the ECO version and I am using it with my Gen2.

Wow, I love it!!! Took a bit to figure out how to use the wireless and so forth. Instructions are not that great, but once figured out, wow!!!! The undertows that 2 can now create is even better.

I am glad I bought it.

Also, I noticed the Eco motor is silent, whereas the Gen2 has a whir on the dry side at high speed. Well I called Ecotech Marine in the U.S. and guess what! They are sending me a new dryside motor, then I send back the other.

Now that is service!

I can honestly say, in this case, 2 is better than one. HMMMMMM, what can 3 or 4 do? maybe I can create a whirlpool vortex

I'm not sure your fish would like a whirlpool vortex... but it would be cool to look at

Congrats on the purchase Glad your happy.

If you have time and your typing fingers are up to it. Could you explain again what you had to do to sync the eco-smart to the gen-2. I know it was kwirky and the instruction manuals are crap.
Thanks
Kevin
