The more I read up on these pumps the more scared I am.... This wasn't the only thread about these pumps ceasing to work. I was informed by Dave at Concepts never to run these over 80 percent or I will risk the power supply shorting out and over heating. The last thing I want is a failed return pump.

denny what will concepts carry as a replacement then?

I love the performance vs power draw of my pump and would replace it with something more reliable if it retained performance and low power draw.

Speedwaves and Diablos are the same pumps. Well, ok, they use different coloured plastic
