I also using the FM10000 for my 732. Super powerful, quiet and indeed low power consumption. With electricity tariffs going up, my monthly bill did not increase after changing to this.
I split output of this pump from my sump to tank. Each output still powerful! |

Bro, I concur with you on this. Even we used other model, it will be the same but depend on when the bill will shoot up only. For this new model, I also would like to know.

Well, then this will occur with all other pumps of various brands and models. All things being equal, at least these pumps start off with already very low wattage.

anyone using the 3500LPH pump, able to review on noise level?
Am thinking of replacing my Rio HF which is running 2750LPH on the same power consumption. |

Agreed with you on this but for when it will consume more electric is my doubt. If it lasts for only 2 to 3 months then the result will not be good as expected. Correct me if am wrong.

I have only just started using this pump for a month.
Bro Tay I think at least got 3 months liaos. If the power consumption were to go up as being concerned here, only time will tell. |

Look at the second pic. Spec for FM5000 is 40W. But reading shows 46.9W. A deviation of 7W. It may deviate even more for higher up model. So, how to believe their stated spec? (Consumption W and output L/hr).

It might be a mistake in the posting of the Distributor.
I have personally seen the FM10000 at work. Its output is native size of 40mm and the water gush out really strong. Its rating is 85W and the measuring instrument attached to the pump shows 83W. |
