external pumps are usually more money. to my knowledge the little giant will last u longer. they run on different technologies. the little giant is made out of metal, the quietone made out of plastic. the little giant is a pressure rated pump as well. the non pressure rated pump puts out about 1400 gallons per hour i believe.
also i thought the notso-quiet ones 6000 go for around 130
