Second that, great amount of flow for the initial price, and good energy efficiency too. Basically, if you want anywhere from 1,000-2,500gph of flow this would be my pump of choice.

RC sponsor and a great LFS I use a sequence dart on my 210, and I did have a problem once. Sequence swapped the pump for a new one no questions asked. I think the warranty is 5 years also.

ok i see that the dolphin amp masters are also good pumps to but what is better
Series Amp Master 2800S and runs on 1.0 amps but they dont list the watts used where the Sequence Snapper will use only 98W but they dont list the amps used? which is better? thanks Matt |

110v * 1.0a = 110w
98w / 110v = 0.89a |

these pumps will want something bigger than 1" plumbing to shine.

From my research the Sequence pumps were the best for wattage usage and flow. I bought a Baracuda and Hammerhead and they are great. Rebuildable motors and made in the USA.
