    Upgraded ballast pumps - Are you a Ballast Puppy or a Ballast King???

    I am curious if anyone has any experience with the "Ballast King"? Per below the King is faster...Would be great to trade out the pumps, which would probably be pretty easy to do, but would be $315/each minus discount...

    Thoughts? Sure would be nice to NOT have my friends with aerator pumps making fun of Nautique and their slow pumps...Priceless

    still slow compared to some of the aerator pumps available now...are these the fastest impeller pumps available currently?

      LOL. Next time they do, have them deduct the up to 25% loss of flow rate once the water hits the sac, and then see how fast the aerator pump is.

      The King is quite large compared to the puppy and pulls more amperage. Would likely need an upgraded circuit, so maybe not a plug n play swap..

        Yeah, I dunno sure seems fast on both my buddy's axis.

        Yeah, The "King" draws more amps, right? But I am a bit confused. This picture doesn't show the ballast pumps. Isn't there breakers for it somewhere, built into the LINC somehow, I guess.
