I am done with jebao products

[arnaldolex]

sorry to hear about that hove, i actually have there doser and my tank levels kept messing up with calcium over 600 when it was just suppose to dose 100 ml a day so i turned it off just use it to add water to my 50 cube from my reservoir every morning at 8

@bioman luckily i had it set up to my manifold so i just had to pull it right out ive been threw a few pumps so i know lol, i wonder what i could be i mean it was working fine and just from turning it of it never turned back on

 

[arnaldolex]

i tried my friends power supply and controller but it didnt work one thing is that his version is the new one and i have the older pump. I hope jebao gets there act together as to customer service in the future

sorry to hear about your experiences. I have 4 Jebao products, it's kind of hit or miss but there is definitely no customer service and the specs on the products aren't always correct.

DCT3000 Pump - Stated that it went down to 700 lph however a simple test showed that it only went down to 2000 lph. No response from Jebao on question about this or my other question about using a less powerful wall wart. Used in larger tank and pump working fine for 1 month now

DC1200 Pump - had a vibration, no response to question about what to do. Eventually went away and pump working for 2 months now.

Jebao Doser. First unit had dead pump, next unit works fine.

Jebao wavemaker - over 1 year, no issues. BTW, if yours it too powerful, you can use a smaller power adapter. This doesn't seem to work with the DCT pumps though.

My doser is always off, so I need to adjust the dosing rate to get the right amount otherwise it will dump way too much.

Here is my experience. I had Jebao WP-10 for about a month and the controller (the old version) got stuck on one setting and I could not control it anymore. I got the replacement ($10 S&H) and it worked about the same time after that the pump stopped working. I got the new one now with a new controller and so far it works. It's already about 6 months. I don't have any experience with the Jebao dosers but I do have 2 BRS 1.1ml dosers and they work perfectly for 4 years without any maintenance. They still dose 1.1ml.

I've had mines for over a year with not 1 single problem

IME, RW and DC pumps are absolutely awful (2 RWs and 4 DCs lasted less than 3 months). IMO, you'd better off buying a handle of Clan MacGregor and some lottery tickets than buying Jabao RWs or DCs.

But WP pumps still seem to be holding up as are the dosers.

I gotta say that I feel alittle bad but am gonna man up and say that the pump is still kicking after trouble shooting I ordered a impeller for cheap online like 15 bucks and now it works again so jebao products are ok lol

Ive been using jebao for years. Ive had only 1 crap out on me and I believe it was because of my calcium levels. Just purchased 2 rw 20s cost me around $170 and I'm more than satisfied.

 

[Reef Reaper]

So far still working pretty well! Keeping my fingers crossed

THANKYOU, no idea why people praise their stuff, yea its cheap but at what cost. no problem shelling out the benjamins for a frag but money for a decent pump too much

Have Jebao pumps running all over the place. Aside from one controller going bad have nothing but good to say. Oh wait, at their prices have nothing but GREAT to say.

 

[noelskii]

I've never had a perfect product either...from any company.

 

[oh207]

I have nothing good to say about their WP products. So I won't saying.

 

[arnaldolex]

I bought my wify a rw8 for her 60 cube since the rw in my 50 has been doing justice can beat wave action for 70 bucks lol.

I actually went through 2 wp40's and now have an rw15 and rw20. The 2 wp40's crapped out after around 16 months and so did the rw15.....good news was that it cost less than half the price of the unit to replace the motor ......SO....if you go into this knowing they are only going to last a certain period of time and are willing to spend another $35 every 16 months then at least you know what you are getting into ahead of time. I contemplated purchasing used Tunze 6105's but was warned, (by Tunze), that the life on these were only 4 to 5 years....(generally that's how old these are when people decide to sell.....so they are on borrowed time). THAT's why and when I decided to pay for a replacement motor on the rw15. They are good but don't have the longevity, (but then again you are not paying prices like Tunze and Ecotech).
