    My koralia 2's are not rated for a wavemaker.

    When the wavemaker transfers from circuit to circuit the prop in the koralias tend to have a tough time starting up. They bounce up and down on the shaft; sometimes not starting up at all. They will work very randomly. And eventually without maintenance will make your wavemaker a waste of money.
