Thanks for that tip, David. that's one reason I'm not that crazy about those charcoal filters, ya never know if they're really doing their job. It seems to be the exact distiller as the one for $99... I saw that as well... paying double is quite normal, but then I'd have to use a transformer for the 110V, which I'm honestly no great fan of. Those transformers hum too loudly for my liking and I imagine they suck more energy than needed just to keep the transformer going. And yes, it is quite tough living in another world... sometimes its like living in the twilight zone..... I just remind myself, that there's a reason for everything, I'm just still waiting to figure out what that reason may be... Should I really try using rainwater? I'm a bit skeptical about that, but sometimes I wonder which water to be cleaner, the tap or the rainwater... that's a tough one for me. If I had some direct way to test the waters to be sure, that would certainly ease my mind... Should I risk it? What's the worse that cold happen? Often enough times I wished I was already a scientist with access to many facilities, just so that I can do my own testing and research. Aldi
