If my replacement dies anytime soon I will be going back to my trusty D5 until Laing get get their act together.
50k/hrs MTBF must be a magical time in a land long forgotten. :) Or was it supposed to be 50hrs MTBF? :eek:
Any updates :D
So far (knocks on wood) the DDC-2 replacement is chugging along. But I am looking at the Iwaki. :)Quote:

before I never worried about my pump dying, but now I'm constantly checking my temp sensors... :stick:
first i have to say sorry for my bad English
for me now Petra's send a new DDC2 for me Great work for that point
& also i don't wanna make it die again plane for use fan 120 CM for cool the pump ^ ^ so diffical make the plexi like that don't look nice just try for fit in CM Stacker . Hope fully this way the pump not going to die soon <not cut plexi
for make air flow yet>
Would be interesting for some one to machine an aluminium Commutator housing for them as a heat sink and see what that does?
Easier than that would be to externalize the electronics. Thats some cheap nasty stuff in there and it could seriously use some beefing up.
My Laing DDC w/ Petra's DDC-02 Top Combo died overnight during testing for leaks. No leaks found but a burnt smell of plastic in the room. :-(
ouch on that.
Retierating, cheap nasty stuff.
cleaning the housing may be a good idea, but I never figure out how to take out the impeller???
it just pops out .. it is held in by a magnetQuote:

that's even worse than mine (see post 134 on page 6) mine ran for like a week before it crapped out. but then you're lucky I guess it broke down that fast, nothing more frustrating then having your loop up and running and think it's fine.Quote:

First one, I really don't know (I've heard some people say D5 is louder, I've heard some people say DDC is louder), second one, depends. With a very free flowing loop (1 block, 1 rad or something), there shouldn't be too big of a difference. As you start to throw more and more restriction in, the D5 can't keep up, period.Quote:

Funny thing, that... If you check my original pump testing thread, the results that I gathered showed the opposite. :rolleyes:Quote:

well my DDC-2 with PTS top decided to stop last night too after one week of proud daddy WC'ing.
What to do....
I wonder if this will become the longest thread in XS.
welcome to the club Jeff :bsod:
I start to wonder the failure rate... seems too many?
Dang I got my DDC pump from Petra's with the top last week and won't be building my system until next (not this) weekend at the earliest. Hope my pump lasts.
when I came back home today and turned the pc on (has been off for a few hours) the pump wouldn't come on until I whacked it a few times. So it's not a heat related thing
Good thing I got that training in the Navy or I wouldn't know what to do!
Waiting for PTS to open up and see if I can get any help...
