pump in a box alternative to diy

for someone who really is a spaz at DIY 

is this a valid alternative, price seems reasonable IMO.

So what you are asking is spending £312 for this worth it in comparision to this/

The only thing missing is a couple of Hozelock connectors and a box.

Bonus of the box is you can bring it in on winter nights, none of this heater in van cobblers 

A pump board, as I will call it, could easily be mounted with brackets in a van to make it easily removable when needed.

I think there is vat to add to p/f's price

I had a diy box same as above years ago, the idea was it could be a van mount or stick it on a barra with a container on top. I've not looked up the pump but I'm sure it's a smaller pump than they have on there control board so your getting less for your money.

There is, they go for a couple of quid cheaper on fleabay but its literally just a few quid. Can't understand for the life of me how they sell them at this sort of price. By my calculations the pump is £90 the controller is £90 and a thick piece of thick HDPE plastic another £10.... Take the eBay fees, PayPal fees etc etc etc I can't see how smaller people are doing it.
