Just received this 4 days ago. I measured output for 2 minutes and amounted to 496 oz (1.9 gpm). Can everyone post what you're getting on yours? Thx!!

I measured 1.64 gpm, plus or minus about 0.03. That's 9% above spec. I've had the showerhead for several months, so any adjustment within the showerhead should have happened long ago.

I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to measure my output, but I've used mine for three years and I absolutely LOVE IT!!!! I have a low water bill which is amazing because I LOVE a L-O-N-G hot shower daily and I hate a whimpy spray. I get a GREAT deep muscle warming spray from this shower head and recommend it HIGHLY to anyone wanting a great feeling shower while helping the environment by saving water. People would be nuts not to buy this shower head!!!! I forgot to mention it has a shut off valve/button on it and it works great. I've never had any trouble with this shower head EVER! I simply press the button while I suds up and do what girls have to do in the shower that water would interfere with :-D then press the button on again and rinse off. Before this shower head I used to have to try and dodge the water which was a pain. I'd give this unit more than 5 stars if Amazon gave us that many!

I would if I still had it. I read the reviews and order it. The review I read said the water shut off valve worked very good and didnt leak when closed. Sold me right there. 30 bucks later or whatever it cost it came in and had no shut off valve at ALL. AMAZON or whoever needs to post reviews to THAT item . Not THEIR items.

Measured 1 gallon in 30 seconds = 2.0 gpm. I think my pressure is fairly high. Hot water did last longer than the old 2.5 gpm head which actually used 2.6 gpm.

Same here. I bought this yesterday, filled with tap water as high as the MAX water line, put some salt before going to bed. It never actually vaporized, even though I added salt again. This morning I added even more salt, and I got neither steam nor sputtering.I think it's been about 4 big fat pinches of (Redmond Real Salt) salt so far... I'm afraid of adding more in case it damages the vaporizer.Ugh, I'm so tired, I keep waking up at night with a stuffed dry bloody nose.

wow i feel dumber for having read this... do you not know how to do simple math? 128 oz in a 1 gallon.. so 128 / 16 = 8... now heres the hard part... if you have 8 that are in use, how many are left?? 8 - 12 = ????? seriously.. stupid question.

It is apparently a mistake, My container say "Net W Think it is a mistake. My container reads "NET WT. 1 1/4 OZ. Should last a long time. (You can get it cheaper.). BG

1). My battery has not run out yet and I've had the unit for a few months now. An LED comes on only when the float registers low water so I don't think it's consuming a lot of power and, as such, I expect the battery to last a long time. 2). This is a nylon wick setup, not a hydroponic setup. It even comes with soil for the pots. 3). As I'm all set up I don't know exactly how much soil or water but the pots are 3" square at the top and taper down a little. Unit holds enough water that over the few months I've had it I've only topped it off twice. I can leave it for weeks at a time without worry :D To be honest, when the battery runs out I probably won't replace it. I find the float that measures the water level gets stuck and needs a tap to fall back to the water level and read accurately. I've just been lifting the pot out and checking the level by eye. I haven't bought a second for this reason. If they offered a low-tech version of this for $20-30 I would buy ten of them. The wicking action is awesome but the electronics suck :P Hope that helps :)

John, no they ( in my experience, this is the third one that I have Got ) dont, I love this set up, just if you get one do not get the air pump one, very low gpm. Maybe 1 gallon per 1 to 2 hours.

Have done 5 batches---4 blackberry and one apple. All took 2-1/2 to 3 hours. All perfect--zero seeds--all juice. Cut up apples into quarters. Did put in too many berry's in one batch and lost some juice that ran over back into the water. Have not had to add any water to the 3 hour process but getting close. May be losing some nutrients as nothing but juice in lower unit and a mat of "mast" in upper but doubt if significant.. Easy to do.

It seems like its about a gallon. Not sure about the exact spec. And in general it doesn't seem to last as long as I think it should.

I just tested it with my meter and with a Brita filter in it ....The TDS....it came out 77PPM

2.2 GPM with both on. with one on I would speculate it is more than 1.1 as it increases the water output of the single device. I would guess maybe between 1.4 and 1.7 with just 1 on.

I timed it by filling it to the "max" line, which is over 2x 1 cup but I wanted to get the longest reading possible. It boiled and shut off in almost 5 minutes exactly (4:58). Keep in mind, that was for 17 ounces and the tap water is especially cold right now so I can't imagine it EVER taking any longer.

Sorry, not sure, it's working great. No leaks. I did a video on YT if you are interested. Froggy's Garage.:)

The majority of the posts are positive. However, a few fuss about "breakage" and/or the heating element dying out after a couple of uses.What model is yours? I am begining to comprehend the proper uses and the best recipes, but "model numbers" are not given with the posts.MML

I'm so sorry I didn't see your question earlier! I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question since I can't see the coils. I know that we make about a gallon every 2 weeks and so far I am totally satisfied with the unit. It appears to be made really well, it's rugged, fairly heavy and easy to use. Like others the only negative is the noise, so I turn it on in the laundry room when going to bed so I don't hear it at all.

I just got a syringe and figured that 2cc was the right amount for 1 gallon of water. if this is a wrong compilation please let me know!

Yes, I posted this question as well and accidentally deleted it I think as I don't see it anymore and five others had said yes, about the same said no. It did for me, I've been running it outside for a few days and it's getting less and less. I'm hopeful to bring it inside again tomorrow. It was rough the first day as my whole house smelled like chemicals.

Emilio, you started the right way but you did not divide far enough. Dividing 70 into .04 is .0306. Round the 6 off and make the 3 a 4 and you get .04. So, cost is .04 per ounce. Hope this makes sense. If you need more help let me know. Have a good evening, Linda
