It is clear that you have not understand the concept of the paid update service. The way how we do it IS your insurance to receive updates for many years to come unlike 99% of the other consumer hardware that receives one or two updates after the release and then never ever again. Software development and maintaining is an expensive thing.

Let's take our aquaero 5 for example: this device was released 10 years ago and still receives updates. The evolution and added functionality that the software has gone through in these 10 years is insane. We have industrial customers who use the aquasuite software for just a few functions that other software developers wanted to charge them five-figure sums for.

I am pretty sure everyone who has an older mobile phone knows the problem that at some point you no longer receive updates. What if you could pay a small amount and receives update for many more years? This is how we work. Unlike other companies we do not cut the support after one or two years and force you to purchase a new product to receive the latest features.

You should be happy that we offer this option and there is also no one who forces you to have continuously updates. You could also wait and just do an update if in a few years the software receives a new feature that you are highly interested in.

The funny thing here is always: if we would do it like almost every other company and just offer support for a very limited time frame (which you pretty much never know before!), no one would care because we are used to this system. Now you can have updates for like forever but have to pay for it, everyone gets upset.

Let's say a new gaming mouse enters the market and comes with no information at all on the updates: everyone is happy. If after a year it receives no more updates it is as it is and nobody cares. If they claim right from the start there will be only one year of support and afterwards never again, it would cause a massive shit storm, even though it is not really different to the first scenario because in the end nothing has changed for the customer.
Now comes our system where you have to pay for later updates BUT you can be sure that you have the option for an update in the far far future.

So tell me, which variant do you think is better for you as the customer? No support at all after a year or many years of support but for a reasonable price?
YOU - need to update the hardware. Update the Aquaero 6 - NOW!

Yea, I'm sick of paying $12/year also for updating old hardware. The software is amazing but come on.

Yep, I was in the original group over at OCN back in 2013, and we waited for the A6 to launch December of that year. Give us an Aquaero 7.

…I literally just made this account to post here, but this is like witchcraft, almost, and I can certainly get behind the idea of this product. Not needing to baby around a air pressure gauge to test for leaks sounds absolutely amazing, let alone the fact that it can handle the de-aeration process (I have an Enthoo 719, and I'm dreading having to empty the loop). However, I do have two questions I think might be nice to ask.

1) As someone who on principle doesn't want to create any heat issues with components, how do you monitor the loop for leaks when the loop is empty? Is there monitoring for when the motherboard only has idle power, not when the PC is fully on? Or is it that you can run a leak test while the system is on without any fluid in the loop?

2) In addition to de-aerating the loop, could it also be used to fully drain a loop, either at present or through a software update in future? Again, as someone rocking what nearly is a super tower, not having to mess with handsing around the system would be a major time-saver.

The AIO business is one of the most profitable businesses in the enthusiasts market. LEAKSHIELD is clearly a marketing ploy. AIO's historically will leak over time and become noisy. Pumps especially have never been perfected. No 10-year warranties are to be seen and the AIO RGB craze has been overworked. Perhaps the next thing is that they will be installing small robots inside the AIO that do the running around like men on a submarine with little wrenches and tape. Just perhaps then we will see no leaks ever and finally getting served up a unrestricted ten-year "leak and pump proof" warranty. Perhaps in a few months Corsair for starters will send me a complimentary and free 'Capellix' pump mechanism to fit my new Alder Lake system?

Idly, I wonder if this will work with the Alphacool Eisball and Eisstation pump-res combo units. Sure, it'll be a bit dorky having a UFO hovering over the two, or if they will have a rectangular/square variant, but I like the relative compactness of the two.

Same goes for the more rectangular/tubed-rectangular Reservoirs (Heatkiller Tube, Alphacool Eisbecher, Corsair Hydro X, etc).
You can just use a male-male G1/4" adapter fitting and you can connect this to whatever reservoir you want, it's the measurement of the fill levels that will be the limiting factor in terms of how easy setup will be.

1) You do a leak test with the coolant in the loop already but not flowing through. The system does not need to be on, you can power and run the LEAKSHIELD off an external USB device, such as a laptop with aquasuite on it.

2) Good question, but I don't believe so. That would require the device to generate positive pressure above ambient and this is ultimately a vacuum pump with a vent.

Not sure if you are lost, but there are no AIOs or small robots to be seen here.

Good news indeed! I will need 3 of them
Adapter is confirmed with the design as well now:

Before i Clicked the thumbnail I expected it to be something like back in the days of water cooling, a water sensor which you install on the case floor that shuts the PC down when it's getting in contact with water. But it's really something different, way more advanced, lol. :D

The proactive system is really something new. Takes some preasure from crowds who are scared of water cooling because of leakage fears, like me. But as I am picking my parts based on energy efficency / reduced heat, a custom loop wouldn't be something I personally need. A rx 6800 is already dead silent & a 5600x is pleased enough with a stock AMD Wraith Prism cooler. Or add an All-In-One CPU loop for better temps & aesthertics, or OC. I guess with the chip shrinking progress water cooling becomes obsolete in a few years anyways.

Just out of interest, does the LEAKSHIELD add any extra noise?

It's wild seeing enthusiasts, who often spend thousands on this hobby, every few years, get so upset and nonsensical about a few bucks to update something every once in a long while (and clearly they stated you don't even have to update it, it will still work) and $169.51 (if I got the conversion right) for this device that does something interesting and well and especially quite unique in a hands-off-role. A custom loop already costs HUNDREDS and sometimes a thousand or more and is an enthusiast build to do regardless. This is for custom systems clearly. If you're that much of a tight-ass penny pincher, why are you building a custom loop system??? Why is the hardware community so constantly finnicky, so whiny, so childish, so....off-putting. If you don't want to use it, don't like it, then fine. There are a million ways to do something in this awesome hobby. Having more options on the market doesn't have to hurt your weak ego. I honestly wish there was a hardware community for REAL enthusiasts. The ones complaining on here are not. I've never personally done a custom waterloop but I sure as heck would consider this.

People really need to watch the video about it. This thing is practically magic.

There is a low hum, closer to the Xylem D5 than the DDC, when the vacuum pump is on and the vacuum valve is open. This happens only when it needs to de-pressurize the loop, which is maybe 1-2 times a day for ~15 seconds each time. The rest of the time it is quiet and not operating since the seal keeps the vacuum intact as much as possible.

The pricing in USD is in the last page, remember to deduct VAT before doing EUR to USD. But yes, the total might well be around that number once shipping comes in the picture.

Why u no 140mm?
That's a common size for the single rear exhaust fan in most cases.
NGL, I was tossing up between building an Aqua Comp loop over Alphacool last year and my decision was made for my by the choice of radiators that matched my case.
Maybe I'm doing it wrong but my loop goes pump > CPU > 140 > GPU > 360 > res - which seems reasonable given the 105W CPU vs 265W GPU draw.
I probably am doing it wrong though as that's the best performing option, not the best looking option :D

This is no subscription! You can use the software as long as you want without any limitations. You only pay for the updates and if you see what can be done with aquasuite (in general, not just this product) you will also understand why it is impossible to maintain this software for free.
Yes I agree the Software is powerful.
I already use Aquasuite for MPS high flow and Vision products from Aquacomputer.
It actually hearts a little that I now pay every year to get new updates, but it is worth it for me as for example I changed my mainboard and GPU and old version did not support those and sensors could not be displayed on Vision until I got updated version that I was eligible to receive because I bought yearly update. :oops:

I find this LEAKSHIELD very interesting.
I have sent you PM to get some details for my specific use case of LEAKSHIELD standalone with high head pressure pump DDC Laing 3.2. :rolleyes:

Looks pretty clever, but it only reinforces my image of water cooling: a lot of added complexity for little in return.
It is not with a little in return.:)
For example if one is enthusiast who like to OC the hell out of his system water cooling is great. :laugh:
I cannot even imagine staying below 78°C on hotspot temperature under stress test running my 6900XTU Liquid Devil Ultimate at 2750MHz@1175mV and 415W GPU Core power setting.
Even with watercooling I was getting 92°C hotspot until I replaced thermal paste with Liquid metal on the EKWB factory fitted water block on this card. :D

Same with curve optimizer of my 5900X with all core boosting to 4700MHz in Cinebench but temperatures remain below 75°C with TechN water block.

New products are almost always approached with a fair bit of negativity.
Is their a bundle price cut if you already have other AC subscription products?
This is an exceptional piece of gear. I can see it becoming very popular with or without a subscription.

I only know this option that I linked below.
It costs 9.99€ for 365 days.
This is what I bought last December as my update was expired and I bought new components (GPU, CPU, Mainboard) which were not recognised by older version that I had license for:

On my computer I got firmware updates for both MPS and Vision with one license.
You need to connect the license to one of Aquacomputer devices though.
I don't know if the license will then be not available if you remove the device connected to it but you keep other Aquacomputer devices in the computer to which license was not connected.

Yes it is very interesting product for us water cooling community.
The standalone version could land in my system, if my question @Shoggy are clarified with regards compatibility with high head pressure pump systems like DDC Laing 3.2. :rolleyes:

Looks like there are some LEAKSHIELD + ULTITUBE reservoir combos for a discount over them individually, but no loyalty discount if that's what you were asking for lol

The subscription is for software updates. There is one piece of software, thus one fee, regardless of the number of hardware devices. If you want it, of course, otherwise there are zero. IIRC I got a year for free with my Quadro.

Signed up just to ask you a question since the support email on your website takes weeks. For those of us with 2x Ultitube + D5 Next pump combos, how can we use the Leakshield unit? Can we replace the tops of both reservoirs with 2x Leakshield units? Or will you be providing replacement tops for the Ultitube without the pressure release membrane? From my understanding of how it operates, you'd need to have a single unit in a completely sealed off system for it to work. That means if you have another Ultitube with the pressure release membrane, that will interfere with its pressure sensitivity sensor. And if you have 2 separate Leakshield units fighting against each other to control and stabilize the pressure, that sounds like it won't work either?

Would appreciate the help. I know myself and several friends who have Dual-Reservoir systems and are interested in the Leakshield but are currently unsure of whether it can work in our setup with the 2 Ultitube reservoir's in there. We would have no problem buying an additional Leakshield for each reservoir or buying replacement sealed caps for the other reservoirs. Just need your guidance. Thanks.

It's an interesting (and impressive) idea.
I've been using a custom loop on my PC for 10 years (with changes to it due to upgrades) and never had a single leak anywhere though.

Good job Aqua Computer, make it sound like a panty liner or nappy with a leak shield.

The subscription is for software updates. There is one piece of software, thus one fee, regardless of the number of hardware devices. If you want it, of course, otherwise there are zero. IIRC I got a year for free with my Quadro.
That's cool. I have (2) Aquaero 6s.

I pay $24 per year to these morons.

My Aquaero 6 from 2013 and Aquaero 6 from 2015, the software is GOOD ENOUGH STOP IT NOW! STOP IT!

Why is AquaComputer still throwing money into this software? Why am I constantly throwing money into their software? :mad:

Just give us an Aquaero 7 updated device, and stop all the software crazy development, it's already good enough STOP STOP, nobody wants your AquaSuite PLAYGROUND blah blah blah bullshit. :mad:

------

Let us purchase a brand new Aquaero 7 with simple and FREE forever software! :)

Yea, but I still won't have a new Aquaero 7 to install and mount up and update and love and enjoy. :laugh:

Aquaero 6 launched in 2013. PWM and DC voltage fan controller. 8years ago! 8 freaking years ago, and I'm getting older. :oops:

I hear that, but I also wonder where they go from the 6, especially since cases don’t have drive bays anymore. It seems like the LT meets most users needs — maybe they could build a 7 XT with RGB to mount in a 2.5” bay to be viewed through glass :p
