So would that 4mm connector work ok even if it was submerged in the res?

Sprayers can run between 0-73 litres per hour pump dependant but I’m running them as drips over a 15min cycle.
I have 13mm ID from the pump up to the connection for the current rings.
on the new v2.0 the pump supply pipe will have an elbow out of the tote to connect to the pipe for the v2.0 connection.

Ok thanks for the help.

Also got some of these coming
8LPH to see how they work.
thinking with the T that you mentioned on the supply up from the pump these even at full pressure will only allow 8 litres per hour through them with the diaphragm etc.
2 emitters per plant for 15mins will provide 2litres through each emitter making 4Litres total for the 15mins.
run pump on full with the T inside the tote for the “mixing” like you mentioned and it should work as needed.
will let you know how I get on.

Sorry I just seen this tag. I can’t help you man sorry. I just spent the $30 on the floraflex manifolds so I wouldn’t have to deal with adjusting pressures and shit like this. Hope you get them dialled in soon
cheers bk

Hi Jon I use them sometimes when I have different sizes of pots they're ideal for fine tuning.
What I learned is the taps have to be above the reservoir or the they'll leak.
I initially set them up at the manifold but with them leaking slightly due water pressure I had to move them to the pots so they sat above water the level.
I use a micro jet mj450 pump it has a flow control, they're also reasonably cheap at £15 and very reliable I've bought 3 in 10/12 years and 2 are still working.

@Star Dog @myke v2.0 installed.
I’ll admit I haven’t done the T piece yet and will most likely wait until this grow is done before adding it into the system so that I can check it when it’s not in use rather than it being Live.
All my connections other than the Elbow out of the tote are within the edges of the pots just incase of additional drips same too for the 4mm branches and there connectors.
was rather hot and sweaty removing the old rings and adding the v2.0 lol.
@MidnightSun72 i remember you were interested in any alterations I did on this.
flow is really even to each of these drippers once the pump fills the pipe work.

They have been on.
I’ve tested the system and set the drips to where I need them for a 15 minute feed with runoff 3x a cycle.

Wait til I poke nails in my stems and poor boiling water followed by ice cold water through the roots.
