    I thought they were essentially the same thing. Although BP will be the brand of choice around here...

    I heard they are practically the same because feser did a total ripoff of bitspower or something like that. Or maybe bitspower makes them for feser and I have my info mixed up...

    Nice picture Martin. I just ordered 8 Feser fittings so we'll see how they are.

    there are 5 letters missing from this thread...

    Both fittings look nearly identical. Martin you mind throwing the calipers on the inlet and thread outlet?

    It's more the picture than anything, they are perfect. I use the fitting in building my referee character so it has been tightened down once, otherwise they are new.

    Both fittings are 10.0mm ID, and largest OD is 26.0mm

    Has Bitspower or Feser commented about who makes the Feser ones? This reminds me of the Danger Den thread where people who did not know what was going on made all sorts of comments while I sat back and laughed and hinted . . .Just like I hinted at the Thermochill not being in business much longer (because I knew they were going around looking to be sold or at least get capital investors) . . .I have not asked Feser about this issue and I do not have the inside connections with them yet . . .they have been rather slow to warm up to my advances . . .if I ever see them at an event I will have to slip them roofies I guess . . .

    No thank you, I'll stay with BP...
    I'm waiting for the BP 3/8"-1/2" to come back in stock there, plus the rotary 45s and 90s.

    Then we'll get down to business!

    Based on business pratices of both companies, BitsPower will get my $$$ If I were to pick one.

    Never used the compression fittings, but I like the BP high-flow fittings (not the black sparkle ones, chrome). Huge difference between these Bitspowers and the ones I got with my used Enzotech Sapphire ones (EK or DD I think), the Bitspowers have a much wider ID.
