Hi all you Netters,

I can only speak for Medela.  The lactina-(016) is 100 +- 10 on low and up to
240 +- 10.   Classic (015) is 240 +- 10.  The mini electric is 220 on max.
 Each pump is going to vary according to if it is battery and what batterys
used and to what kind of kit is used on the different electric pumps.  The
safe level for moms is 220 +-, although when testing with some moms, I am
amazed how (usually working moms)  they will crank everything up to max on
everything, just to quick get milk out and no problems with nipples or beast
tissue.  EACH MOTHER IS DIFFERENT.  Any questions, please e-mail me.
