The Facet cube pump is the one electric pump I like, since it is a similar design to a mechanical pump with the spring generating the pressure and the self-regulating piston stroke. But they look like they are very sensitive to dirt with the tight clearances. I believe the lack of an inlet side filter caused lots of problems in the Iltis.

Anyway, why did you switch back?

PS, I didn't know Facet made a 6V pump. It doesn't show on their web site.
