Jebao Wavemakers, is it a good buy?

[@jaidevsingh2913]

at last someone made a proper video of the product with details.

[@jzreefz]

@@jaidevsingh2913 glad the details are helpful for you

[@SourcrowdOnMyPlate]

Do you know the unit of the frequency? or maybe the approximate min / max? In sine or classic mode, when set to 30, what is the min /max power?

[@jzreefz]

@@SourcrowdOnMyPlate From what I found online, the minimum frequency is 5%.

[@richardloh1676]

Thanks for a clear honest assessment. Just installed 3 Jebao wavemakers. One is already not functioning properly without good reasons. Looks like quality control not high.

[@jzreefz]

Sorry to hear that.

[@samiam9059]

Use one of the 4500ghr ones and excellent. Quiet a bunch of modes and speeds. have years of their powerheads and they just kept working.😃

[@jzreefz]

Nice! It was a hit & miss in my case. Works well for quite some time, makes funny noises after a while. However, a simple power cycle solved it.

[@samiam9059]

@@jzreefz I must of got lucky on the ones have used. Love the new display on the controller also. I don't use the wireless setup because can't find any pc software to install.

[@jzreefz]

@@samiam9059 Do check out your Google Play Store or Apple store for an application call Jebao Aqua. Unfortunately, there are no PC applications available for Jebao devices yet.

[@samiam9059]

@@jzreefz I saw those , there is an emulator for android for PC but it did not work either. Thanks for the info.

Should include a 3D printed anemone guard.

[@jzreefz]

True! My Mandarin Goby got caught in it due to its curiosity.

[@jerrybeute8884]

What is your glass thickness?

[@jzreefz]

12mm if I recalled correctly

[@danielchan854]

Can i set it up with the controller only and not with an android phone?

[@jzreefz]

Yes, you can definitely use it without the app or connecting to your network. However, you might want to consider getting the non wifi versions.. Saves you a few bucks

[@donovang6911]

How is the overall power? I have a densely planted tank and need the to move to generate flow in the aquarium. Would you suggest this one or another product?

[@jzreefz]

The overall power is not overpowering. Depending on your aquarium size, do get the smaller MLW-5 rated at 3000L/h if you have a smaller setup

[@garycumbo1092]

Can this be used with the apex?

[@jzreefz]

I believe you will need the Jebao adapter and connect to the 0-10v port.

[@leomarc634]

My question is make noise?

[@jzreefz]

Not noisy but small humming noise of motor moving

[@Fidoboss]

Its pretty loud ... ? Or ?

[@Fidoboss]

i am listening ZzZzZzZz.... whats this ?

[@jzreefz]

Hi, it is rather quiet under water. You are hearing the humming sound as I am recording in a quiet space with the wavemaker running dry.

[@jzreefz]

The noise level when I ran it dry is slightly louder than placing your ear near a fan running on high speed

[@beekay4848]

Is this good for a 20g long tank? Or should i get the 10 series?
