It might work with a North American to European plug adaptor. Don't know, I'll have to research into it. I wouldn't need it until the Tunze pump died but maybe I'll get a good one that lasts forever like yours and not have to worry about it. (Hope I didn't jinx you!)

The OP asked "which is the best ATO?"......I answered Tunze as did a whack of other people.......he didnt ask for a bunch of cheap DIY ATO setups.....if he wanted that he probably would have asked how he could "Jerry rig" something together.....IMO everyone else is chirping

i was worried my evap rate would exceed what the tunze pump can do but so far it's working like a champ. never let one run dry and never had one fail (as a result i think).

I don't care what topoff you run so long as it's a tunze! <- if henry ford was a reefer...
Do they come in any color or just black?

Even if it does die there like 20 bucks for a new one and if we can get another few years out of that were laughing.

After my wife lets me get the "It's only going to cost $50" Tunze ATO system, we'll see if it's really the "best" because I have no luck.
