Jebao DC12000 vs Dart for CL

Got 8 years on the Dart with OM4-way, no issues but thinking of replacing with a Jebao DC12000 to save some power and hopefully a little quieter.

Wondering if would be suitable?

That's the question I wonder also with most of the reading I have done they seem to lack pressure for proper push flow. The Gen 2 pumps were to address this problem time will tell as lots of DC12000 from many venders will be being used soon.

I've had a Reeflo Blackfin (2400gph) on my OM4 for 4 years now. It's starting to get a bit noisy so I've got a Jebao DC12000 on order. It should be here in the next couple of weeks... I hope. I'm doing 1 for the CL and a second one in the sump and a 3rd as a backup. I'll post picks and a review when it gets here.

Group buy on another forum

I should have worded the price better though. The locals in the Richmond Virginia area are getting them for $90 shipped. The non locals must add $15 for shipping to the final destination, so $105 shipped.
The buy doesn't end until Nov 1, anyone can join.
