One that's unplugged I have a Mercedes 4 outlet airpump that I bought in Tassie about 10yrs ago, have never replaced a diaphragm and it is as quiet as a mouse. Never seen them since though.

Yea they are excellent, But my 4 outlet is WAYYYYYYYYY better.

Do you remember where you got yours from?
A mate of mine in Tassie owned a hydroponics shop and had them there, I might have to give him a call and find out if he remembers the supplier.
They were cheap for a 4 outlet, Around $80 back then.

Have the same air pump and find it fantastic.
I also purchased mine over 10years ago and have only recently lost one of the diaphragms in it.
Wanted another one just like it but can't find them anywhere or even info on the pump on the net.
Shame though, fantastic pump.

1) quiet (for the whole life of the unit, not just the first few months)
2) and will continue to provide the same pressure/output for the life of the unit (not just the first few months)
3) and you can be guaranteed to get parts for the life of your fish keeping bug (not just the life of the pump - then the importer changes brands and no longer supports the original brand)
4) and ALL the parts are available, not just diaphrams......
5) and any Aquarium specialist LFS can get parts in
6) and will last many, many years.... making it value for money....
Go Schego
Schego website - first 4 models are available
