    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersWOW!
    Moin,
    Ich war skeptisch ob diese kleine Pumpe berhaupt was schafft.
    Nutze diese jetzt um Regenwasser aus 25 Meter Entfernung durch einen 30 m Schlauch aus einem Wasserdepot am Ende des Grundstcks zum Haus zu bringen.
    Der Druck ist trotz der Entfernung und Steigung wirklich gut .
    Die Pumpe hat eine 300l Tonne in einer knappen halben Stunde gefllt.
    Mein 3Ah Akku hat dabei keinen Ladestrich eingebt.
    Super zufrieden.

    Saves my back watering the garden with a watering can now. A back Saver. Impressed on the flow rate too. The timer is handy as well if you don't want to get carried away and use too much tank water.

    Amazing performance
    Bought this pump to use on my allotment and i’m so glad i did. I have about 20 water butts on my plot and so needed sone thing that didn’t rely on a watering can. This pump performs incredibly well, the pressure is excellent and it’s going to make my life so much easier in the summer. Luckily, i had two Bosch batteries with my drill which work perfectly with it. I highly recommend this pump.

    Does about 150 litres per battery
    Bought to pump water out of 220 litre water butts linked to the guttering. A 2Ah 18V battery from my Bosch drill does about 2/3 of a tank before running out (about 10 minutes), but that’s fine to water what I need to do.

    Works fine, just don’t expect it to last for ages and it’s obviously better if you have other Bosch tools in the system that you can use the batteries from.

    Game change
    Used on allotment to water plants and fill the water butt. Really powerful pump, almost as good as using mains supply. Easy to use and very sturdy. Although battery life is as advertised, Ww invested in a couple of spare generic batteries for flexibility.

    Price was great almost half the price compared to alternatives.

    Great product, battery doesn't last that long
    Can’t fault the product. Only thing to be aware of is the supplied battery doesn’t last that long. I’ve not done a scientific test, but i’d say it can empty 1x100litre butt, but may need a recharge to fully empty another. It suits my needs, but for those of you who have a big butt and like to empty it regularly, you might want a spare batterry.

    Klasse Pumpe...Empfehlung
    Die ist top ! Weil ich mehrere Akkus habe und deshalb immer tauschen kann, habe ich mir diese Pumpe besorgt. Ich hatte, nach diversen Enttuschungen mit anderen Gerten des Herstellers, keine groen Erwartungen. Aber einmal eingerichtet, was ein wenig tricky ist, pumpt sie, was das Zeug hlt, schnell und mit ordentlich Wumms.

    Negativ: Preis ist sehr hoch

    Anmerkung: Die Elektronik konnte ich leider nicht testen da ich die Pumpe auf Betrieb mit Makita Akkus umgebaut habe. Davon besitze ich so viele da ich sehr groe Mengen pumpen kann.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersNur das Erweiterungsset.... ! Aber eine wirklich gute Pumpe
    Im letzten Jahr haben wir schon das Komplettset mit Pumpe und Steuereinheit + Akku erworben. Wir nutzen die Pumpe fr unsere groe 1000l Regentonne, die das Wasser aus der Regenrinne unseres Daches auffngt. In regelmigen Abstnden pumpen wir das Wasser aus dem Grobehlter in ein normales Regenfass, wo wir dann das Wasser mit der Giekanne entnehmen knnen. An den heien Tagen, schlieen wir auch unseren Rasensprenger direkt an der Pumpe an und lassen den Garten groflchig bewssern. Die Tauchpumpe liefert ausreichenden Druck, luft leise und dezent im Hintergrund. Fr uns eine ideale Lsung in unserem Garten.

    Easy to install
    So good I bought another one! I have screwed ours to the shed wall with the pump in an adjacent water butt. I use a short expanding hose to water the pots and cold frames. The hose is a 25ft type. I have another pump installed in a larger butt with a 100ft expanding hose but at this distance, and at full extension, it’s struggling a bit with water pressure. But there’s still enough to be able to water some flower pots. It might work better with a traditional hose. I also bought a spare battery so as to have one to hand already charged up.

    Fantastic water pump
    I am 81 years old and found it a struggle to try to water my plants with a watering can, I then discovered this water pump it goes into the water butt you attach the hose, so easy and when the butt is empty I can move it to the next one and so on, saves my water bill. I had a bad fall trying to water but this pump has helped me to keep my garden going as I thought I would have to give it up so my garden is now safe and so am I.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersSaved me a lot of back ache and time
    This is a mixed product page and reviews are bundled together. This review is for the full kit, I can’t comment on other products on this page.
    I bought and have reviewed this based on a 4x 100lt water butt set-up where water is pumped across a level garden through a 25m hozelock reel box. I can’t comment on other uses for this pump.
    I was taking a bit of a gamble with this and I was half expecting it to be sent back, but thankfully it has exceeded my expectations. Using 4x100Lt water butts to keep a small area of garden hydrated is one thing, but I am using mine to water a 100m2 lawn. Soon after installing the water butts I realised that using them to water a lawn is a mistake when you are having to fill up watering cans and buckets and run back and forth.
    I looked at several pumps and decided to go with this one to save me having to run a mains cable to the water butts. The kit is easy to set up: connect power cable to battery holder, slot in battery, connect supplied hose to pump and connect own hose to the end of the supplied hose. There is a bracket of you want to mount the battery holder to a wall but it is not necessary to do so. You can connect your own hose directly to the pump, but the supplied hose has a pressure relief valve and it would not be advisable to bypass this. When set up you can either run this until finished (max recommended time is 30 mins) or there is a 5, 10, 15 min timer.
    Use is easy just lower the pump into the butt and power up. I was trying to make sure the pump stayed upright, but it isn’t that necessary; when the water level drops it topples over anyway, but still works fine. The pump is quiet and a single charge is more than enough for me to empty a full 100lt butt. I don’t do more than that in one go, but I am confident that the battery would do at least 2x100lt maybe more. I don’t have other Bosch tools, but I am told the battery is interchangeable.
    So how does it perform? My mains water is set to 3bar which obviously drops during the day. Based on that, in a blind test I would not be able to tell the difference between this pump and my mains. I would at night as my water pressure drives back up, but this pump is more than adequate to pump from the butt, through 25m of boxed reel (both fully reeled in and out). I get a good even spray of water and now I can ensure that the entire lawn is evenly watered rather than just pouring a bucket out. You are not going to be putting fires out with this, but it is more than enough for the average garden where you are watering on the same or lower level as the butt. I have attached a video to show the out flow on a shower setting.
    I may not have saved any money on my water meter in the short term when you factor in buying butts and pump, but it will eventually pay off. So far I am not regretting this purchase.

    Tut! Mit 4Ah Akku richtig gut zum Gieße
    Pumpe in Regentonne, Schlauchwagen dran, Schlauch mit Pistole Frau in die Hand drcken, anschalten, breit grinsen.
    Aber bei all der Freude gibts leider auch einen Nachteil. Alle Versuche diese Art von Verbindungskabel zwischen Akku/Kontrolleinheit zu finden schlugen fehl. Die doppelte Gre (5Ampere) hab ich jetzt 3x aber die pat natrlich nicht. Noch konnte ich mich nicht durchringen das Kabel durchzuschneiden zum Verlngern.. ich wrde es nmlich gerne 2,5m entfernt unter dem Dach aufhngen, so wird das aber nichts.

    Tauchpumpe defekt? Nein! Warum der Powerknopf bei mir nicht funktioniert ha
    Diese Produktrezension sollte fr manche das Problem klren, warum die Pumpe bei Druck auf den Powerknopf nicht anspringt.

    Ausgangssituation:
    – die Pumpe springt nicht an und die Akkuladeanzeige leuchtet nicht auf, wenn man auf Power drckt
    – die Minuten/Timeranzeige funktioniert und zeigt die Minuten an (Strich neben der Anzeige/n leuchtet)
    – meine Regentonne ist 1,80m hoch (die maximale Tanktiefe wird beim Hersteller ebenfalls mit 1,80 m angegeben)
    – ich nutze einen 18V 1,5 Ah Akku (ein grerer Akku ist bestellt, aber noch nicht angekommen)

    Da die Pumpe nicht angesprungen ist und das Drcken des Powerknopfs nichts bewirkt hat, hatte ich die Vermutung, dass die Tauchpumpe defekt sei. Dies stimmt jedoch nicht! Ich habe den fast vollen Akku noch einmal voll aufgeladen und die Pumpe in einen Eimer mit Wasser (statt der Regentonne) gestellt – nun hat sie einwandfrei funktioniert. Das Problem lag also entweder am Akku oder an der Tauchtiefe der Pumpe.

    Simply a great piece of kit. Bought for my allotment to save time on watering. Simple and quick to install, worked first time and feels like the same pressure you’d get from a hose attached to the mains. Cut my watering time down to a couple of minutes for the whole plot. 5 stars.

    Excellent produc
    Very pleasantly surprised by this product it worked straight from the box so simple to put together didn’t need a charge just plug and play, I had been using my normal expanding hose prior to arrival so I set this up in my water butt and attached my hose which extends to 100 feet under pressure and found very little difference in the mains pressure and the pump pressure there was a slight drop in the pumps pressure but very minimal it pulled the water from the butt and pushed it 100 feet to my adjustable hose nozzle and sprayed my garden just as good as the mains water. Still reaching a good distance, only downside was it certainly empties a 100 litre butt very fast could not believe how much water disappeared from the butt and only used it for a couple of minutes as a trial test certainly need more rain to fill my 4 butts if it empties them that quick I cannot fault this product bought as used but it looked brand new in box from Amazon works perfectly at a exceptionally good price I was expecting a good quality product being a Bosch and wasn’t disappointed it’s a brilliant product does exactly what it says it does and comes complete as per pictures you only need a hose with normal fittings and a water source eg butts or pond rivers etc excellent buy

    A very useful garden accessory.
    This pump is easy to use, sturdily built, and provides more than enough pressure for garden sprinklers etc. I have six water butts placed at different locations around the house and garden shed, so the pump comes in very useful for watering directly from water butts or transferring between water butts. Battery charge is sufficient to empty a 205 litre water butt which is plenty.

    Versatile submersible water pump for garde
    This pump works well, I’m using it to pump rainwater from butts to the other side of the garden, around 50 metres. Saves a lot of bucket carrying! Good pressure, enough to use the spray attachment even at 50 metres. With a separate battery housing, cables and hoses to set up,it’s a little fiddly but that makes it versatile, so easy to forgive. Came with a 2.5 Amp hour battery, which seemed to run down quite quickly, just enough power to empty one butt 3-4 times, but I wasn’t paying a lot of attention. Simple on/off and timed run buttons on the battery housing. Just connect a hose, drop it into the butt, and run the hose through the supplied plastic hook. Copes with very sludgy water at the bottom of the butts!
