Cool.

Does it allow calibration? Or is dosing time based only?

There is no built in calibration feature but you can still get accurate dosing by figuring out the mL/s for the head and then adjusting your dosing schedule. Just set the head to 1 second per dose. Grab a measured container, the larger measurement the better but usually 100mL should do it. Press the manual dose execution until it fills to 100mL, mean while counting how many times you push the button. Now just divide 100mL by the amount of button presses and you get the mL/s.

Following, I ordered a jebao doser and still waiting for it. Always nice to see other options available.

Can you tell us roughly how many ml it doses per second?

I am running a jebao and while abit of time to set it up it seems pretty consistent once dialed in. I admit the 1000 button pressing seems like a chore at first but it actually gets to be like playing a song on the piano or practicing my Chinese torture techniques....👇👇

I have been contemplating adding another doser to dose the trace, vitamins and possiblyno3/po4 reducers so an extra pump would help in that sense...

I'm using only 2 heads ATM and they both at 1mL/s. My 3rd head came closer to 1.1mL/s. So when comparing between heads there might be a difference but the head it'self has been consistent.

Good to know thanks as I will be doing small doses per day like maybe 2 ml per day

Haven't done one in a while. Just as an update, doser is still going strong. Haven't had to replace anything so far. Time does tend to shift by about an hour every month but that was expected.
