Saw these available for 75% off today, can get them for $15 each. Thinking about getting the heater for my new sump, thinking about getting the ekip just to try it out. Are they any good?

here are the links to each

I have on of there bravo200 filters and its comparable to aqua tech. But I heard that they quit making alot of this stuff and if you nee any parts or filters later on than you will have a problem.

I would love to use the inline filter but FX5 hoses are to big they are 1" or 25mm and that heater won't fit.


But I would love to have one.

I don't think my sump hose will fit either but I'll work something out.

Anybody else..? I'm going to buy these things in a few hours and would like some more opinions before I purchase them.
