Strange, I bought 2 used ones and neither ran the pumps I have. Never though of getting new pumps to test.

well i went out and bought a 555 timer and a bunch of caps n resistors n such, and a breadboard to prototype it with. I'm going to try to DIY one first. Too late to start working on it tonight, but I'll post my progress as I go.
