Want to talk about my RO/DI booster pump.
My well pump never really drove my RO/DI system efficiently... so, I picked up a booster pump, from AirWaterIce. Came with a pressure switch to turn the pump on and off as needed. As it happens, it's the exact same pressure switch that BRS sells with their booster pump kit. Durned thing seemed to come on and off at random. It'd shut off at 60lb, and then the next cycle, it'd shut off at 30lb... sometimes it'd come on at 20lb, sometimes it wouldn't want to come on at all. Just didn't work right. Called AirWaterIce, they sent me out a new switch, no problems... except, after a month or two, the new switch did the same thing. A couple of years dealing with it, I bought yet another switch, same brand, and yet again, it's just not stable. These are $20 switches... just not reliable.
So, last week I picked up a pressure switch from Amazon. This one...

8 bucks. Same spade contacts, works from the same power supply, same 1/4" push connect fittings... but it's a different brand.
Been in service for a couple of days now. A bit of adjustment, and hey! It works! Very consistent. Come on at 22lb, turns off at 56lb. Every time. Anyone needing a high pressure switch for a booster pump, I highly recommend this one.
