After Sally, we ended up with around 10" or so of rain. Thankfully, no flooding near us, but we did have a spot where the drainage tube has grown over and left a nice puddle. Decided we'd play a bit with the AP-125. Didn't have a proper hose for it, but were able to rig a pool hose to fit snug enough for sucking.
Didn't have a proper strainer, so just laid the hose on its side and held it with a piece of conduit so it'd stay in place. This pic was after it'd sucked about half of the water.

Ran well, just a little hard to prime with the rigged hose setup we were using. It started cavitating and sucking air after the water was about an inch or so above the hose, so we called it quits after that.
