Bravo pump

I know this has been discussed alot but just need something cleared up.

The Bravo BST12 and the BST12HP are the same except the BST12HP will pump up to a higher pressure. Is this correct?

If so the BST12HP is only needed for a air floor SIB. Is this correct?

Thanks

In short yes, but to confuse things there is now the BTP. Bravo plan to phase out the BST. Give us a call tomorrow if you want more info.

There are also a few variations: rechargeable battery or not, and others, I think.

just be careful when using these 2 step pumps on or after beach , sand get's into the high pressure ( i think it's a piston pump ) and kills it pretty quickly. If i had a SIB still i'd have a seperate cheapo pump for deflation

Have a look at this review of the BTP12HP I bought from Ribshop earlier this year. Very impressed.

http://www.rib.net/forum/f50/bravo-b...iew-43268.html

Even if you don't need the HP type now given the small price difference (actually price looks the same at Ribshop?) I'd be tempted to get it anyway.
