    pRon 4 joo

    Got a care package from Geno today . . .w00t




    Will try to get a better pic of the LED hub but it is sweet
    Got to sand and polish the tube guides (just finished gluing them).

    Oh . . . .I guess you have to leave your initials in this type of post?

    Brian is gonna flip when he sees that DB lol. The part DB isn't telling you is that he will be handing out some of those fittings at a few lans so people can see just how strong they are etc.

    And what is pRon? Is that nude pictures of a shell fish?

    I still refuse to believe these comp fittings can be any good >.< I guess I'll have to wait till someone imports them so I can give them a try.
    What are you going to use these wrench-shaped things/bat-shuriken for?

    PS. Don't forget to add better pics of this LED hub.

    I stepped on a fitting and it did not break. I think maybe someone with the right equipment should do a pressure test to show quantifiable data.

    The shruken looking things are tubing guides. Wait until you see what I will have at the end of the week.

    Dam DB...must be a MONSTER FLASH on ur camera...the red fittings look orange.



    Even the official product picture at ModdersMart looks lighter red then they really are though I guess.

    That pic did come out funny. They are blood red of course since they are cast from the coagulated blood of n00bz

    That's amazing, seeing as how you ate P-PC's in that one picture I saw of you

    Looks like fun, DB. Note that the red in pics 3 and 4 looks fine ... so either just the lighting/flash or white balance, I'd guess.

    I'd love to know what you think of these seeing you have used a lot of compression fittings through your case modding and custom builds.

    [Congrats on the weight loss too Keep tough]

    They are easy on the fingers. I also like how light they are (full coverage blocks are so damned heavy it is nice to lighten up the load a bit. Don't get me wrong, I still like the BP fittings (they really revolutionized things IMHO) but these are not meant for replacement in all situations but instead another option (cost effective on at that). I always suggested BP fittings to those asking advice but often came up against the person's budget. This will allow those folks also an option as well as allowing modders another blingy colorful option.

    I have seen what Geno has in store folks . . .you have just seen the tip of the iceberg . . .

    Yes, these plastic comps were never meant to be compared to BP's fittings. I never thought about weight and yes, these should lighten things up a bit. The main thing I guess is cost.

    More things coming? Hmm should be good.

    Nice fittings. I think they're reliable because I saw the stress video. The guy that grabbed the tube and started swinging it with a reservoir attached proves that these fittings are just as strong as metal ones.

    Well not as strong but strong enough for the application and then some.

    Once I release my fittings made from polymemetic alloy all will hide in shame . . .until then these will do nicely.

    I tried Sidewinder and Petra's [and Google...] but I can't find any shop selling these fittings, are these available in retail?
