Re: Best location for solar panels
Hi Alin;
We have also looked for a while for a solution that does not include the Arch. We also intend on switching to Lithium batteries when our current Gel setup needs replacing in 2-3 years.

Pen Azen Membrane Tube end caps
Hi Amo,
As previously mentioned and originally invented by Ian and Judy on Pen Azen there is a very simple way to remove the end cap.
Just make a loop of webbing or dyneema and fasten it to the cap

You can buy Sodium Metabisulfite on Amazon or eBay. It’s used in beer brewing. Very inexpensive.

Re: Membrane Tube end caps
Paul,
I was referring to the fact that Dessalator recommends using the ST2 sterilizing cartridge and 1 packet of their "sterilizing" powder." This is regardless of the size.
