Pump speed

[Mgut91]

I was wondering if i can change my pump speed, the pump is the jungway dp-600p and can i hook it up to a fan controller that have enough w per channel

Yes,that will work fine.

B, how many watts do pumps usually need? (lets say a Laing D5) (which i know already come in vario)

Get a controller that has 30W per channel and you should be good.

24w for the d5 at full draw.
DDC's can range from 10w to 18w

my pump is using 8w at maxs

yeah you can do that, just make sure you dont over watt it or it can just stop working, i wouldn't go anywhere past 20w on pump myself

the pump in question is rated @ 6.5w.
Minimum start @ 8v.

 

[Mgut91]

? srsly, so it is only using maxs 6.5w?

 

[Deejeta]

yep just 6.5w+/-10%

Very small pump. Similar to the little solar powered pond pumps starting to make their way into hardware depot stores.

Only 6.5W? Wonder if that's even enough...
