Questions on highblow 20

[thee_boss]

Just bought a hb20. The shop don't have an 8way splitter, so I install a 6way one. Is this ok for a pump of this power?

Another observation, I notice the side of the pump body is quite warm. Not scorching, but warmer compared to normal conventional air pumps. Is this normal? Should I let more pressure escape?

Hi-blow and Atman air pump can really last ...... mine lasted for close to 10 years

I also brought one HB baby after hearing about all the good things..
It's very powerful, yet super quiet..

Thanks for the reassuring replies. Hi blow is power and durable. Yet silent. Hence it is highly sought after. Just buy one and you might not need to concern yourself with air pump issues forever after!

Bro, before you purchase any hi-blow. Please take note of your tank size as its air flow is very strong. If your tank is 5ft or 6ft, hi-blow baby is sufficient.

bro thee_boss, 6way splitter shld be ok. u do not need to be overly concerned abt the slight warmth of the pump. its natural that any pump/motor/engine heats up during operations.
bro stevenwong7, hiblow is one of the most durable yet silent airpumps in the market.
