One of the D5 pumps takes significantly more current (and power) than the other

I have a dual pump setup, using the dual pump mounting piece from Aquacomputer.

Both pumps are setup the same way in aquasuite, (curve controller, based on water temp).

Yet I see that one of the pumps for the same RPM takes about double the current and double the power. Any idea why that may be?

I attached screenshots.

Hello,

you can swap the controllers of both pumps.

The value of 2.4W sounds rather implausible to me.

If it's not the controller, swap the pumps in the top.
