I plan on buying an Aquaero controller - this is great stuff.

Q1:  For the aquastream pump controller, what is the maximum amps the controller can provide to the pump?

I ask because based on what I have read in the Aquacomputer documentation, it would appear that the aquastream controller could control any 12VDC pump since the only connection between pump and controller is 12V.  

EDIT: Actually it may be AC and not 12V DC... Is that correct?

Q2:  I know that officially, the controller is only for the "Aquastream" pump, but certainly it must work with other 12V pumps... Is this possible?

EDIT: If it is AC, are there more powerful AC pumps that this controller can work with?

Q3:  If two aquastream controllers can be bridged to an aquaero controller as mentioned in the documentation, then I presume you can double the power (amp) output by using the two controllers to supply power to a single pump in parallel?

EDIT: If AC, I gather this won't work at all?

I would really like to come up with some way to use one or a pair of these to control a Swiftech MCP655 pump which draws from 1.7-2 amps.  Anyone else considered this?

EDIT: This is a 12V DC pump so I guess I'm out of luck on this. Perhaps there is a more powerful AC pump I can use with this controller.

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

no, you can just use the aquastrem with the aquaero.

That's not a very insightful response. Why?

I understand that the aquastream is actually a 9V AC pump which is probably fairly unique. Is that why?
