My ASM G2 came with a Sedra 5000

I bought a new ASM G2 today and it came with the Sedra 5000.
From what i read it came with the 3500....is there an upside and\or downside to this?

thanks

You are lucky and that is an upgrade. It will perform better with the larger pump.

the downside is that it has a higher power consumption

the other downside is that even though the box says 5000, most are really 3500s

Yep happened to me, soon as i got it out it was a 3500.

If you did get lucky the 5000 would push that better than the 3500 would.
They should put the 5000 on there stock.

I pick up a 5000 and it does not fit the G2. The elbows are completely different in sizes.
