I have a couple frabills that have been good to me, ones battery or cig lighter power the other is straight battery. They're the "aqua life" version. They come with a clip you can screw onto bait bucket then the aerator slides onto it.
So I'd like to here about the battery/cig lighter one...how long have you had it...have you used it much?
I used to take fatheads in a drink jug. At home and off of the 4Runner's 120 v receptacle I'd run a cheap wally world aquarium pump. Then at the lake, using the same hose and stone, I'd swap over to a battery operated wally world aerator, 2 ea. D cells, Frabil, I think...Worked well, even in summer...
You are going to hate me.. The clam lithium one is actually pretty nice. But the aerator you want/need is the 2-way hush bubbles. http://www.marinemetal.com/products/15-3-vt-airpumps/2-way-hush-bubblesrhttps://greatlifeoutdoors.com/marine-metal-aerator-pump-portable-bait-minnow-bucket-live-well-battery-powered-b-17
Kevin is right. You want the marine metals 2 ways hush bubbles. Us catfish guys know best!! Frabill aerators are junk. I don’t care what anyone says. Even Frabill pro staff will admit it.
I cant get Frabill to last. They put out a ton of air and are quiet, but they are also very heavy and don't last more than a season. I hate the engel aerator with a passion. Man that thing is loud and obnoxious!! I bought a hush bubbles 2 way for it and I cant even hear it running. I've had to go look to make sure it is turned on twice now. We do a lot of cast netting for shiners for walleye and crappie bait, so my aerators get a lot of use throughout the year. You need tons and tons of aeration to keep those things alive in the summer. I think I've went through 3 frabill in 3 years now, and one bubble box but that was because i dropped it in the bucket of water (oops).

Marine metals bubblers last 10x longer than the frabill aerators.
I ordered this very item to replace the hideous Engel. Hope you don't need it soon....ordered on Feb 8 and hasn't shipped yet....
Yeah...I need it for the next few days so gonna see if any bait shops have it or Walmart. I’d call Walmart...but I haven’t had much luck with people working at Walmart willing to actually look.....
You made me spit my beer on my keyboard! But they want $15/ hour for doing the lousy job they really don't want to do to begin with.
Amazon prime it. Free trial, get your bubbler on thurs and then cancel. Beats going to junkmart
