    Default Installed onboard air pump for bait cooler $8 / 1yr review


    No more noisy Engel or Mr bubbles air pumps on my boat. They were louder than a mad rattle snake. Installed this air pump under my dash & air lines are hiden until needed. After a year still working good, 12v pulls <300mA @ 1.9L min vs Mr Bubbles Quiet / Hush 1.1L min @ <65dB. Cant hear it running at all. Bought a set of 2 to have 1 as a spare but havent needed it yet.

    The max draw is <200mA not <300mA and it says <52dB @ 11" but its more like 20dB since the cylinder ends are intake & output I wrapped it with a 4" piece of pool noodle and zip tied it under the dash so there would be no vibrations and no sound when I'm fishing. I've left minnows in it running for 2wks in august with frozen a water bottle. You do have to solder the leads on it. There's cheaper ones out there but the draw is double and output is half. Maybe they last longer , Idk. I think it will fit into fit into the Frabil housing to replace the old banger motor since it runs 5v-12v. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
