JayPee Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Just wondering who here is using any if the air lab series. I need more air because the hap 100 I have now isn't enough. So I was thinking of running 2 @ airlab80. So are they super quiet and reliable ?? Sent via auspost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny@ageofaquariums Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Not too bad at all. They are more efficient than the LP or HAP pumps when it comes to air for wattage. Shame you aint more local or could plug in both an LP and an AIRLAB for you side by side. That said neither is too bad for sound, I find them a bit quieter than the HAP which I put down to the larger diameter output. But even the HAP aint too bad IMHO. Just glad we aint using pistons and blowers so much anymore! Be a few years before we know if the AIRLAB beat the LP for long term reliability.

JayPee Posted October 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 That's the main reason I was thinking of running 2 of them. I can get more air for less power. So in my eyes that's money in the bank so to speak. I know one guy who is using them but he is Mia at the moment. I have had an lp series but upgraded to the hap 100. But now more air would be great. Thanks for the reply Donny. Anybody else have experience with them. Sent via auspost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M&J Fabulously Fish Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Iv always had resun lp60 /100. Never had a problem. Just bought a airlab 80 a few days ago for a spare of the moment set up. So far so good. But I can't really comment as it's only been running for 3 days.

Netdave Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Been using one now for a few weeks, very effective and quite. Happy to give out some positive feedback on these, I got mine from the TechDen, also they are very well priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayPee Posted October 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 I knew someone would have to be using them. Are you happy with the air output compared to the lp series ?? Sent via auspost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obeice Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 I was using 2 air lab 20's for a few weeks they were killer then i upgrade to 1 air lab 120 and it's doing a killer job the only thing that annoys me is it is a little noisy but thats sorta expected for such a large air pump, not like i can hear it in the house but you can definitely hear it in the garage when you in there. No complaints here other wise price is good and reliability seems to be good also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
