I'm looking to buy a second Vortech MP40w. I have the ES but I am wondering if there are still any MP40w's (Non ES model) kicking around. If so, who is selling them? I'd like to get the flow of two pumps but save a few bucks. I know Oceanic was selling them for $419 a while back but I don't see any of them on the website now.

Keep searching the buy/sell forums for used units, even an MP20, which can be upgraded to MP40W quite easily with a driver and power supply. All I can help with at this time is with a used MP40W driver. I have two of them since I upgraded to the ES drivers, so if you can get hold of an MP20, I have a driver for you, then all you need is a power supply. I'm looking for an MP 20 myself, as a backup.

Sorry to Hijack but how much did the upgrades cost Mike?

Sorry...No old MP40W stock as they have been replaced with the new MP40W ES, however, the new old stock MP20W pumps are $299 EA. :wink:

145.62 incl all taxes & shipping for two ES drivers from J&L. This was in March and if I recall correctly there was a special price for a limited time.

The upgrades to ES are now full price and that's around $110 :(

... The only reason I bought my second MP40W (For $499.00...) is because the retailer told me the upgrade would be around $20.00 when he gets them in :mad:.

The upgrades were at a minimum $65, at special. Never at $20 so I can understand why the dealer never got them in.

Thanks Ken,
Wish all stores were upfront like that, I'm pretty sure Danny from Wais just said that so I would pay $499.99 for the old stock of the 40s... Well I have some screaming to do:lol:.
