    Thanks for the tip. I have now fitted the controller on the fluid bed air pump. It allows the pump to be adjusted to give the bed full movement without 'boiling'. Very difficult to spec a pump size to do this effectively. Many thanks.

    • @keepingitkoi
      @keepingitkoi  ปีที่แล้ว

      Your more than welcome bud I'm glad it's working for you both of mine are doing really well I just love not only can you control the airflow but the more you turn it down the more money your saving a double bonus 😀 thanks for watching 👍

      Thanks Andy I suppose its better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it but there definitely worth it even if you turn it down just a fraction it's saving money and the pump isn't working as hard so theoretically should last longer 😊👍

    Great update Jamie👍. You’ll be pleased to know that I have one incorporated on my new RO system and it has reduced the primary pump from 270w to 150w so great saving👍. I’m going to look at using them on my other pond electrics👍😊. I have the same waterproof electric boxes as you so not able to plug in direct but they do work on extensions so have at least 2 appliances they can work on. Keep up the good work buddy👍🐟🈲😊.

    Nice update Jamie. Since putting my nexus in, I haven't had any air going into the pond. I measured the oxygen levels, and the moving bed part of the nexus puts enough oxygen into the pond. Looking forward to seeing the plans for the new pond 👍🏼

    Great review 😉,been looking at these for a while now , for my air and pump just need a tweaking ,so i thought wondering if there's a smart version out there Candeo do one for smart lights can dim them down ,wondering if they would work on pumps ,but at £35 a plug a bit much ,so i'm going to get two variispeeds then plug them into ordinary smart plugs for that extra control 🤔,liked and subbed 😊

      No unfortunately not that the issue I had luckily mine are in a waterproof filter house but yeh the plug is 2 big to close the lid there are other ways you could do it tho a small single extension into an outside waterproof cable box and voila sorted 👍👌

    KiKoi .. I keep my air like this as turn off completely causes issues but I have 3 moving beds and a shower, so I think I’ve got plenty of oxygen 😅 Also I have a vari plug unit but BS model it works on the 8.000lph pump but the 12.000 pump doesn’t , so might get a different brand/model as the 12.000 is only 120watts think and vari plug is meant to handle 300watts 🤔 So it stated. But great update review and where you mention multi plug and safety “I see no issue” as-long you don’t go over the RCB wattage /voltage which unless you wack on 2-3kw heater same source then yr multi plug will have no issue Imo 😅

      Sweet thanks for that mate I'm no electrician so I don't really know how it all works but I know alot of people have moaned about other people's electrics on TH-cam so I was just saying it to keep them happy 🤣 and yeh the vari speeds are only rated to 300w well mine are anyway which should be plenty for any moden day eco friendly pump so you should be good 👍 I know of over 40 people using them now with nothing but good reviews so far 😊👍
