WX10?

Anyone ever use a WX10 pump for a highbanker? I found one cheap at a yard sale.

It'll work good for a appropriate sized sluice and mat set up.

35 bucks kind of cheap, I have its bigger brother the WX15 as well which I am actually pretty impressed with.

Another one here with the big brother WX15 and am impressed...... The 10 should be just fine as Mike said but don't expect to get too far from the water source or too high up the big bank. For reference with my 15 I could pump into a 100' 1.5 hose with about a 50' elevation gain and barely have enough to run a converted A52 sluice power highbanker

I too have the wx15 that powers a 2.5" dredge with a 12" wide box using Goldhog mats. For a smaller high banker setup, maybe 6" width with mat's matched to the actual average gph, the wx10 will work fine. Your not going to move tons of material but for testing and occasional casual use....perfect.
Great little pumps and motors and weigh almost nothing compared to others with the same pumping specs.

I thought about getting one and see if I can make a 1.5 or 2" dredge work.
It'd be a great hike in, prospecting set up. Total pack weight should be close to 25lbs. including short hoses, even less if it was an abs high banker.
