So your are mixing from a gallon of concentrate at 10 or 20 parts water to 1 of concentrate?

That I assume changes the design of the mixer, or will the coaxial design still work for the injector, a teeny tube set into a slightly loose hole so the air came out outside the little tube and misted the little bit of fluid fed by a limiting needle valve from a container with src air pressure in it. Used more oil that I figured it would and while it worked well, but an hours running had the shop visibiity down to 10 feet or so, and my lungs complaining. Using pure syphoning from atmospheric should cut that back quite a bit, and I could set it in a cup holder on the back of the gantry crossbar, and the lower atmospheric in the bottle pressure should make for bigger droplets. If it still syphons ok, its all a plus. Thanks J.
