First I've seen of it. If it's as accurate as they say it is, I'm interested. Seems like it's going to be a very expensive unit though.

Hoping that it will not be quite as finicky to connect to the ReefBeat app as my ReefWave 45's. There was a bit of trial and error with one of them needing to be returned to RedSea for an exchange.

It does seem like a very nice unit though!

I have both the neptune dos and ecotech versa, both have pros and cons, I'm interested to see how the reef dose compares to both pumps!

According to Reef Builders, it's made with a servo motor. After doing some research, they're not as accurate as stepper motors. I'm curious to see if they're as accurate as they claim to be. I will say, it's amazing that so many dosing pumps are able to calibrate now. I have a bubble magus t-01 that I have no clue when it's drifting or not. It's an extremely attractive price compared to the versa.

I'M very interested also and sitting with high hopes it get release soon as I am in the process of looking for a high quality doser. If I can keep my 650 Peninsula running with this baby I will be thrilled.

Lets see when they plan on going public with it....

That may be enough to convince me to pick up a 4. I was gonna get another dos since the versa pumps are hard to find

Availability looks like may 20th according to the RB article

It says that the special promotion price expires June 30th. I would assume they plan on launching it before that date!

jgirardnrg · Apr 29, 2021

Special Promotion pricing seems to indicate there's somewhere we could actually buy these now... anyone know of a source? I'll bite and test one and post the results.

Looks interesting, but not meant for AWC, just meant for normal dosing.

“Daily dose per head of 0.2ml up to 1000ml in increments of 0.1ml.
...
Motor life expectancy of 10 years – based on 250ml/day/head.”

I will be ordering the two head unit for my Nanos auto water change. I like the idea of all my equipment being on a single control app.

These seems cheaper than the DoS if you have a 4 channel set-up...I saw the YouTube promo...my question as I posted on their YouTube page...How quiet are the motors in not studeio/control environment...I like the quiet operations (I currently have the Apex Dos) switched from Komera F4 Pro...It was just too loud...but did a good job of dosing...

It doesnt come with any tubing, you have to buy that seperately as an accessories pack,
since when has tubing been an accessory for a doser? Typical Red Sea.
