With those drill pumps, you are supposed to prime them first. Put some fluid in the pump first (pour a little into directly), and then run it. It have a longer life also. They work surprisingly well.

[@MarioLuisJuFerreira]

Ikr, a flex shaft tool for 60 bucks it’s actually really good and from how well it looks like it worked without the proper lubrication, I feel like it’s more their lack of technical skills. I use flex shafts for jewelry and they are technical tools, considering how loud the noise was I’m assuming they had their foot on the pedal full force and definitely not used to the tool.

[@AschenDog]

They do seem useful for when syphoning via gravity isn't possible, provided you know how to use one like you said. For a special case, I have an antique drill that's still corded and plugs into the wall so the last two words I want to use with it are "cheap" and "water" lmao.

[@Sanyaenyenwa]

Centrifugal impeller pumps like this, whether it's a cheap drill powered one from amazon or an expensive standalone one from a reputable brand, pretty much all share the same drawbacks: They are really bad at getting water flowing by themselves, without being primed first. Also, they need water flowing through them as a cooling medium. A high quality one with a good bearing may last a little longer before overheating, but if you stick one end in a thick medium and just let it run dry at full speed like this, it will crap out just the same as this one.

The stick for the weeds looks like a terrible version of a great tool my mom has. It's made with a sturdy stick and a better mechanism with 4 metal grabbers, it's very good at pulling weeds out with a thick deep reaching root. I once pulled out one that had a root as thick and long as a rats tail😂 We help her every year, since the garden is big and since she's gotten that tool I'm actually having fun getting the weeds out of her lawn😂 it also hasn't broken in years and we've used it alot. If anyone else has problems with unwanted plants taking over your grass lawn you should try it out, I can only recommend it

The problem with the Drill Pump is that it is probably not self priming. So unless you get the water to the inlet of the pump first it is just going to spin and burn up the plastic.

I have the exact same pump from another store. You have to prime it and there is an RPM limit that a drill can easily surpass.

Fun video as always for you two :) I do believe you overlooked one major thing with the pump. most water pumps need to be primed (long story short air is compressible, liquid isnt, so a dry pump isnt really able to do much but once primed (flushed with liquid) the water is able to push/pull/move. I am really curious how the pump would have performed if used 'properly'. Did the instructions not mention anything about priming??
