Most of you may know icecap was manufacturing the previous battery backups but now it seems Ecotech Has taken the wheel. With their reputation I'm sure they will be even better.
Here is the except directly from Ecotech Marine
"
In our quest to continually raise the bar for product excellence and customer experience, EcoTech Marine is delighted to announce the release of the all new EcoTech Marine Battery Backup™. Thanks to our loyal and rapidly expanding customer base, EcoTech Marine continues to grow. Expanding our product line and in-sourcing its production and quality control is a natural step for us to take, and one we hope is embraced by the reefing community.
After an extensive period of engineering, the new EcoTech Marine Battery Backup is now shipping. "By bringing the Battery Backup accessory in-house, we can now better control the availability and final quality of this critical piece of reef tank insurance," said Tim Marks, president of EcoTech Marine. "We thank IceCap for their support over the years and are pleased to take this step forward."
The Battery Backup now comes with two spare cables, instead of just one, allowing you to backup multiple VorTech propeller pumps or link batteries together for more run time. Additionally, we are utilizing a more powerful charger which allows for longer run-time, all while keeping the price for this accessory at its current level of $165 USD. Look for it at your favorite on-line retailers and local shops now.
Remember, it might take a typhoon to destroy a natural reef, but for our captive reefs it only takes a power outage.
