Mellif Cordless Transfer Pump for Makita 18V Battery,Portable Self-Priming Pump Electric Utility Pump for Garden, Hot Tub, Tank, Pool, Ponds, Aquariums(No Battery, Tool Only)

Use this for getting the last bit of water out of the hot tub. Easy to set up. Little heavy but it’s robust. Neat little tool with it that enable the feeder tube to lie flat so you get out as much water as possible

This works with 18 volt XR batteries. I nearly didn't buy this pump because they incorrectly advertise it as only for Dewalt 20 volt batteries. Must have lost them loads of sales in Europe. In the USA, Dewalt brand the batteries based on the charging voltage which is 20volts (probably because it makes them sound more powerful). In Europe they have to specify the battery voltage which is 18volts. The only difference between the US and European batteries is the part number and the artwork.I needed a pump to empty a couple of large water features before the winter freeze. This pump emptied my 2.6m long woodland stream in about 5 minutes. About 100 litres, pumped 1.5m uphill across 20m of lawn, to the surface water drain. Used 3m of 3/4" hose for the inlet and regular 15mm garden hose on the outlet. Self primed, uphill, from dry within a couple of seconds. Used 1 indicator light on 4ah battery. The supplied strainer has a large flat face and allowed me to pump out the sump right to the bottom without getting leaves into the pump. A brilliant piece of kit. So glad I spent the time to research DeWalt battery specs

Using to pump water away works great

So far, very impressive for the money. The two fittings supplied seem to be BSP so maybe that’s is an update. It really needs a 3/4 pipe on the inlet and it doesn’t come with a spigot for that, but less than £3. 1/2” hose on the outlet works great and spigot supplied for this. The battery compartment only fits traditional Dewalt batteries (up to 5kwh). I have a newer wider battery and a large chainsaw battery that won’t fit. The pump does rather kill the batteries as well. I’m running approx 100m of hosing to water trees over fairly level ground and it works a treat, for about 20 minutes per battery, but my batteries are a few years old now.

Great bit of kit and really good service. Would recommend

Unfortunately packed up after a year of not very intense use. Only for occasional use and very light use.

Initial pump developed issue and seller customer service went above and beyond to fix any issues and concerns.

Very happy with the quality and good value..
