Yes, I've definitely used the Dankoff Flolight before. I've seen them
last over 15 years. Cost is higher than the Grundfos though.
I'm dreaming of something in the $200 - $300 range. Basically a really
beefed up Shurflo, or dumbed down Grundfos MQ.

You could look at the rotary vane pump ( dankoff for example). They come in
24v, quiet, require extremely good filtration, much smaller than the MQ but
you’ll need a small pressure tank.

Greetings Esteemed Wrenches:
We have a tiny house project, and need to supply the pressure pump. My go to
pump has been the Grundfos MQ series of constant pressure pumps. They have no
start up surge, and don't require an external pressure switch or pressure tank.
For small part time cabins, we've used the Shurflo or Aquatec diapraghm pumps.
In this case, I fee that the Grundfos is overkill at 10 GPM, and that the RV
pumps won't last very long in full time use. Any other choices out there I
should be looking at?
I'm thinking 3 GPM max will be fine, but I would like something more reliable.
The pump would be preferred to be 120 vac, but I might consider a 24 vdc unit
if it otherwise fits the bill.
As always, thanks in advance for all your comments and suggestions.
