I also note some snide remarks AFTER admin folk came in and warned.

Anyway, heres the bottom line : IN a 'real world' enviroment with 'retail' pumps we'll see a temp diff in favour of the GTZ, and I can say this purely on what Gabe has told us even not knowing the pump he used, as long as I know that he used the same pump and the same settings for voltage.

More tests will ensue I'm sure from the general community.
That's pretty much the way I understood it too. You can't test blocks unless you isolate the variables and that is exactly what Gabe did. I read some of the posts, but couldn't figure out what they were trying to get at because this testing is as good as it gets. Even Nik said he has *been there* and seen the test setup and said it was an excellent test rig.

I am very grateful for this data. This is the kind of thing that is extremely valuable. This kind of Data is the bottom line. Everything else is just guesses without data like this. I know i couldn;t even begin to run these kinds of tests. I don;t have the equipment for it. I am very grateful to the people who do though and the ones who spend their time to help people like me.

I wanna personally thank Gabe for providing these test results.
