Great Product
We lost power up in the Northeast recently and my new pump ran on battery for three days without an issue. The alarm sounded right away and the pump was very active during the three day outage.

First Usage
I purchased my pump kit after a wet spring ,vowing to stop getting water in my basement. I never needed it this summer,but when hurricane Irene hit in august, I was impressed! This little system is a monster at getting rid of water. I couldn't be more happy. I have done away with 90% of my wet basement problems. I hope the quality is as good as it looks. I'm putting it to the test as we speak. I would like to write in again after hurricane season.Please keep this pump package on your shelves,as if it works out more people around here (N.Y.) may be interested, I know I am for sure. Thanks!

My 1st Basement Watchdog
I purchased this pump kit in the rainy spring and just recently installed it this summer. I have not put it to the test yet but, I have to comment on the quality, features, packaging, easy to follow directions,you name it.
This looks like one of the best pumps I have ever purchased and after 38 years of a wet basement, I may have found the solution. Any one looking for a complete battery back up kit should consider the basement watchdog. P.S. The shipping was great.truly a good company to do business with SPD.
