Good points - especially the CETI analogy. That could have been the original case of getting lucky, and then losing the magic...
-----Original Message----- From: Dennis Just a personal view....... having seen some of these things played out..... it could be that he doesn't know how it works. It may be very much material dependent and he has but a little of "the good stuff" left and doesn't know why batch 3 and 4 (pick some numbers) work and the new ones don't. Now he is trying to make smaller ones to conserve the material and save face. It is interesting to notice that the devices in the Swedish report showed a lot of Cu oxide black but the other fittings where new and shinny. Perhaps they were old ones or some taken out of service. Anyway, it is hard to see how you could get that much oxide on them if water was flowing in the pipes. Notice the fittings on the Cu parts were not altered enough to knock of the oxide but the mounts and connectors were all new. I know that with CETI, they thought they had it, and then when the good batches ran out......... I just know that active materials may be hard to acquire in multiple batches. There is just something at the atomic level that is required and we just don't know how to make it consistently.
