Same pump, a few people seem to goop luck so far but everyone I've had, waveline or speedwave, has had an issue whether with the power supply, controller or pump itself. I've also seen the amount of returned product at some retailers that sell them and its substantial enough to suggest I'm far from alone. To add to it it appears Waveline doesn't seem to deal with some dealers anymore making it pretty painful for warranty.

Yeap new waveline DC12000, hoping issues are fixed and related to a gen1 thing. This time I made sure I bought it from a retailer that should be able to warranty if needed.
