Yes... The higher frequency ones are better suited for driving motors such as these pumps... 21khz and up... The lower ones that you mentioned are for controlling led lighting they will make a lot of noise when driving the motor and it may be much less powerful due to the amount and speed of pulses of power in a given timeframe which effect the power level and control over the motor movement as well as the amount of heat generated by the motor but honestly I forgot a lot of what I read about it...
this is what I use...25khz..

Theres no fancy readout which is honestly pointless since you can just as easily make reference marking around the dial but I understand the readout looks cooler. Thats more important it seems to some and that's their choice.. also to be fair, a lot of folks probably just saw others using them and didnt see the many posts following where I tried to give a heads up that the higher frequency ones were better suited to the task.. either will work but just like the 24v pumps work better than the 12v version or a 2amp power supply work better than a 1 amp, the higher frequency pwm controllers will work better to power the pump or so Ive read from researching it on other tech sites and forums.
