Just thought i'd put a FYI out there, the new model ecotechs "MP40W" are in circulation now. Capt Andy i believe picked one up today, maybe he can shed his input on the usability/performance of the wave driver.
Also wanted to explain how this works. They call it a wireless wave driver however there is still a wire attached to the pump from the driver. The wireless function is for multiple pumps. If you have more than one you can program them to interact or counter act one another. So basically you don't have to wire all the pumps together, in fact from what i read if you have multiple tanks in diff rooms they can interact or be on the same wavelength. Not quite sure how this is usefull but.......its possible.
The wave driver appears to be lighter, and is made of plastic, personally I kinda like the metal construction better of the original driver but i guess it has its advantages, I'm assuming that they run cooler now also.
I ordered my wavedrivers and will have more info on functionality in a tank in a couple weeks. IIRC the price is $75 each. John at sea creature can get them direct, i'm sure you can source them elsewhere soon though.
