Glad they fixed that!
The other issue was power consumption versus the competition at about 1/3. When you consider most of us have at least two powerheads and they run 24/7/365 they end up costing quite a bit over their lifespan to operate.
A 10 or 12 watts doesn't sould like much but add it up over 1440 minutes a month or 525,600 minutes a year etc it all adds up.
