my Laing ddc2 pump top mod (56k warning)

[Solarfall]

hehe yep coolmiester your awesome mod inspired me to do my laing mod so thanks mate,
also there was a swedish gue who did something similar too, but he did not put the inlet to the top of the pump, he only modded the barbs to bigger ones

[coolmiester]

@ Solarfall - your whole mod is practically cut and past from our site and you were happy to sit back and take full credit for the idea had the original not been pointed out - WOW what ever happened to morality or giving credit where credit was due!



1 Imperial gallon = 1.20095042 US gallon

actually the first idea came to me to do the mod from petras derlin top, and after that i started to search if any one else had done anything similar. your mod did come up but so did a few others and so i just took the best features from those mods and made it my own, there is to me atleas a lot of different stuff i did in this mod compared to yours.

btw whats that imperial gallon thing?

really don't get that morality comment you made.
i really did not think it would matter that much for some one to get credit for some thing i did with my own two hands. but if it makes you happy i will add your name to the first post ... adding the credits now... bling

[voigts]

I may have to try this with some EK barbs. Very tempting idea...

[septim]

morality issue like copyrighted/patented idea and that you should have asked permission first before copying "his" idea...

in other words, give credit to whom its due...

but of course this is XS, where almost any mod is possible, and freely sharing ideas/ and worklogs with lots of pics is best and most welcomed...

so coolmiester, no hard feelings if other people are also as creative as you guys over there.
its not like you where the one who modded his top noh.

[IanY]

Oh man... this is not an artificial heart or a cranial implant.. This is just a miserable silly water pump for crying out loud...

[coolmiester]

Seriously, i would not have posted my own guide on how to mod a top here and here had i not wanted people to have a go themselves.

Our ideas get used frequently - look at the original Danger Den Sli NV-6800 blocks we came up with and we never complained about that.

Call me old school but i wouldn't feel comfortable taking credit for somebody else's work.


@ Solarfall - 1 Imperial gallon = 1.20095042 US gallon was mentioned just in case you hadn't taken it into account when doing your flow test comparison with other pumps.

actually did it like this 1 US gallon = 3.7854118 liters. measured that with Desi liter cup, so i should be pretty accurate.
lol i was asking because i never had even heard of emperial gallons before.

[Chas_The_Man]

Oh Boy Imperial Gallons.

Ok, there are 8 ounces in a cup which is the same as a pint, err or 2 half pints? Because there are 2 pints in a quart and 4 quarts in a gallon. And everyone knows that there are 32 ounces in a quart so there must be 128 ounces in a gallon. But Noooooo... in some places they have 164 ounces in a gallon. But everywhere there are 4 quarts in a gallon so then a quart must be bigger someplace too. 41 ounces in a quart??? Wtf??

Well, the ounces are bigger too! This means there are two types of "Cups" In canada they use Imperial gallons but US sized cups. No wonder everything in the US is more salty. The Imperial gallon was based on the volume of 10 lb of distilled water weighed in air with brass weights with the barometer standing at 30 inHg and at a temperature of 62 °F. In 1963 Sounds like something we would do to modernize the US system lol.

huh another ddc mod, can't say that i have seen that mod.. but its pretty much that same idea that i made, but does not look as attractive as mine

BTW does any one know where i could a pressure gauge.. would be interesting to test the Maximum Discharge Head that my pump does.

very nice, maybe you should have given Credit in your on guide.

Dont you fell stupid now, or maybe you will try and eplain that you never saw the mod on www.systemcooling.com ?
or is it okay to copy the guide they made if you just take it a bit further ?

[Ajn]

awesome job, looks really nice. I think much better that the stock one. And, besides, it´s fun to tweak stuff, isn´t it

where you get that stuff and how much it costed (how far from kemijärvi?)

[Solarfall]

*HOLY thread resurrection batman* hahah thanks Antti yeah very far away from kemijärvi you can't get that stuff from Finland, witch blows.
the pump was bought from england ( over-clock.uk) bards i think were from US not 100% sure about that, cant remember...
the rest of the stuff i used i got from K-rauta

[leo_bsb]

[XS_RoB]

It's good to dig up these old threads once in a while for us New GuYz!
Being new - I would have had no idea how to even search for this kind of a topic! I've lurched for so long that All I know is:
RD-20 pump
Meanwell 24v
Thermochill PA120.3
Swiftech MicroRes
O_o

Anyway - I love it!

It looks great and now that I've seen it - I will try this maybe for my second loop! (Graphics Card only)
Thanks for the inspiration!
