anyone using sea sweeps with tunze powerheads??

I am considering using sea sweeps but wanted to know if motors last as tunzes are heavy pumps
can I know how long have they been running for people that had been using them?

I was thinking in the one with 6155

Thanks

I have 2 seasweep 1 with tunze 6095 n 1 with 6105. The weight of the power head is nothing to concern however u need to mount the seasweep firmly otherwise it will move because of the rotation.

can I know if you have the tunzes that are in the sea sweeps in constant mode or in pulse mode?

Thanks

Constant mode only. The pulse mode will vibrate and move the seasweep
