HyPark Specialty
Mino-Mizer™
This package includes 1 MINO-MIZER bait aerator. Other products are available separately or in a combo box.
Until MINO-MIZER there was always one big problem in using live bait; keeping them alive, fresh and frisky long enough to do their job. The oxy-bags or bubblers just couldn't meet the challenge. There you were, out on the water, ready to go after that record-breaking catch, only to open your bait container and find all your bait belly-up.
Then came MINO-MIZER, the revolutionary bait-saving technique. This compact, professional live-bait aerator atomizes the water, spraying out a fine mist which provides 6 times more oxygen than bubblers, cooling as it aerates. This provides the perfect habitat for all types of live bait (even hard-to-keep shrimp!). Just imagine going straight to the lake (or ocean) with fresh and lively bait left over from the week before.
Simple to operate, MINO-MIZER is a vital tool in every angler's arsenal. MINO-MIZER can run approximately 70 to 80 hours per 6-volt spring-post lantern battery or 11 to 14 days per screw-post lantern battery. Or, when combined with the MINO-MIZER CONVERTER, it will run from any 12-volt car or boat battery.
MINO-MIZER’s small, compact size makes it versatile enough for use in almost any type of bait container: minnow bucket, 5 gallon pail, 48 qt. cooler or live-well up to 20 gallons.
Also available is the MINO-MIZER AC Adaptor for use on any 120-volt wall outlet in your home, garage, cabin or camper, eliminating the need for batteries.
Made in the USA, its quality, water-tight construction provides quiet dependable operation. No annoying buzzing or pumping noises,
keeping both bait and angler happy. Perfect for fresh and salt water, summer and winter. Comes with a 90-day manufacturers warranty.

Thanks for the input.
Question? How loud is the mino-mizer? The aerator that came with my Engel's was LOUD! I did like that it ran off 2D cell and had a 12v power cord like the fraybill that gobob has in the picture he posted.
if you have a twelve volt inverter use one for a 50 to 70 gallon aquarium
You dont hear it. Mine is in a 10 gallon Igloo cooler. Sometimes I shake it just to hear it make noise.
So....with a regular minnow bucket how do you travel with the minnomizer in the bucket without spilling the water and minners? I'm asuming the lid of your buck cannot be used when the aeroater is being used. Also, it looks like the minnomizer has to be removed from your bucket to net a minner?!?
Butch, that was my concern...having to move it to net minnows but it is not that big. I got a 3 gallon round insulated bucket with a small lid in the middle of the big lid and I can net minnows without any problem. Have to slide the net around it a bit but it floats out of the way so no problem. As for noise, I have hearing loss so I have to put my hand on it to feel the mist coming out of it. It will run forever on a 6 volt lantern battery, but I got the 12 volt adaptor and run it off a cigarette plug I installed in the front of the boat.Quote:
