hey DS480
that site is legit or at least it was last year, friend of mine did the 150 minimum
Some import producers dont understand the application in which their making (blowing) their products, in this piece its completely non op if water is used,you could hit it dry,if you want but whats the sense if its a WT...... . Cheaper to buy a j-hook if you just want to go dry and cool it down,lot cheaper and you can get it state side
you will see the reti percs on their sides,theres an x-mas tree type of perc useless
both of these examples will give you a lung full of water with out a doubt. we also have seen before the percs on some arent in the ideal location but they work.Best you eye em good as you have done so, these 2 examples are good examples as well as the one you mentioned to prove the situation does exist, all three are nothing more than a waste of material and paper weights.

theres a piece that one poster bought,it had 3 consecutive shower heads down the intake,you had to fill the piece up to the last (highest) perc, and from there very little can is left to accumulate vapor,at the same time your drinking your filter media. Another piece I rec'd from PD was labeled under the "deal of the day"(Victorian matrix perc.) Came in a case had a bulbous flask type for a can, detach MP, beautiful.....
USELESS too big a perc for a narrow necked flask, the perc only fired on a few slits making pulling thru it like sucking a basketball thru 20 ft of garden hose and then there was no room for vapor and you were drinking the media once again.
Good eyeball there DS480, there are some others on that site that look decent for the $$. I can say for now I have alleviated my GAS problem for the moment. I think Im holding 10 pieces ranging in 2 categories, decent import and some domestic blown form local artists on the site.
