Actually I was wrong in my first post. the one i have that burnt up was from HF. I was looking earlier today and the pumps from HF and NT look very similar, but the NT pump flows 720gph and the HF only 330gph. I don't know if they measure their flow rates at different lift heights or what, but I went ahead and ordered a NT pump to see if it holds up any better and to hurry up and get me back up and running. I'll keep an eye on HF and take your advice and buy a couple extras when they go on sale again. As always, thanks for the advice.
