    Here are some pics with the UV Green dye.











    It's damned hard to take some good quality pictures with low light but it's good enough to show something. As you can see not much glow from the dye but the green color is really good.

    HydrX has more blue in the green while Mayhem's has more yellow in the green.

    For me the color is just perfect it's almost exactly the same color like the UV active green rear fan.


    I need UV Green dye that gives a nice glow than I can ask someone I know to take some good quality pictures. My camera isn't good enough to take pictures with low light.

    Guys i would like to piont out some thing that some one is trying to pull me down over.

    When i first started doing a pre mix i handed over quite a few samples to gilgamesh of gilgamesh reviews and of overclockerstech.

    The samples were just that pre production samples and there for the never hit the public market. A few problems were found in that the inhibitor iw as useing went cloudy. So they have never been sold to the public for that reason.

    How ever gilgamesh has decided that all the dyes are a Joke and to try and slander me wich is quite funny as the real reason behind it was that he wanted exculsive rights to all the dyes and wanted to review them all how ever he hasnt been given that and never will. Allso to top it off his test was to pour the dyes into a small glass and hold it upto a UV light and say hmm thats nice.

    So to prove a point some of you have been running the dyes a while and if you are still running them please could you post pics. Just for proff that gilgamesh is full of basicly. I can do it my self but its best some one independant of me does it...

    and because i dont hide any thing this is the direct link -> http://overclockerstech.com/forums/s...1016#post11016

    I have nothing to hide and i do address any problem found pritty fast. shame some ppl try to big up there own feeble names with 1/2 truths.

    people are haveing varing results with the green how ever like i say if you not happy i will do a full refund and im working on a better soloction to this problem. Ive orderd some new UV green to try and boost the UV aspect of the colour.

    I would say the green and blue have both been the hardest dyes to get right but hopefully the blue will be sorted with in the next few days and the green with in the next week or two once the new UV aspest has arrived from USA and China.

    if people would like the green that has not passed through the filtering system i can supply this how ever you will find that when you drop it into the system there will still be what looks like powder drops floating down. this will mix in properly to the system but thats why it goes through the filtering stage to remove this visual problem.. its sort of a 50/50 thing.

    You have just given me a idear.

    The yellow / green is strong in green colour under UV so ive just run a quick test of a 2:1 ratio mix of yellow/green + green. Doing this has produced a normal green and the uv green side looks better UV ..... (yes a bit bit more yellow.) but its a bit like them UV green fans in that sense.

    Hmm this could be a good answer to getting a better green sort of best of both worlds.

    I'd love to try that out. Something like that should work nicely for my new build. I can post much better pics this time. I know I already got some so I understand not sending it to me.

    Don't worry to much about it. If it was really causing so much trouble as the guy is saying we would have known that a long time a go.

    We don't know what the real reason is why he did that but obviously he doesn't like it that we use those dyes.

    Let us know how you're doing with the UV Green dye and if you can get a better glow with UV light.

    As soon as DHL has landed with the new supplys ill get my ass down to the post office with these two new samples to be posted out of dark blue and a mix of UV green + UV green / yellow. Allso will send you both 2 x new sampels as well of Clear UV blue and the biocide. So youll both get 3 x samples to play with.

    Im going to see if i can buy in bulk some 12v uv cold cathods. Hopefully we can match the best cold cathods to these dyes and keep the prices down still.

    mlwood,

    please understand in any business this kind of stuff happens

    "allow me to sell your dyes exclusively"
    "no"
    "ok, your dyes suck"

    just keep being completely honest, keep making your product better and people will use it. don't let this kind of stuff get you down. keep in mind people have problems with EVERY company. you will find people that love it, and you will find people who hate it. it's just the nature of the world.

    you will quickly find anytime you deal with money it will cause people to do CRAZY things. luckily you are selling a relatively cheap product (cost wise) so you will be able to afford to correct small issues easily. you are going to get some people who expect it to glow like a 200 watt bulb and they will be extremely disappointed when it does not meet their crazy expectations.

    best of luck with your dyes

    actually let me explain the other side

    This gentleman has approached many of my friends for FUNDING including some close friends. I will not say whom but MLwood knows whom they are.. They rejected him as everytime his pre-mixed fluid failed to make the grade compared to thermochill. In addition his lack of lab-testing data did not help. He also went to a friend of mine BEGGING for funding to which he was promptly refused!

    His business model is unsound and so is his coolant. However I refuse to get into play ground slander such as the gentleman above. However you will see soon the issues.

    I refused to recommend him to lee @wcpcs for simply that the formula i recieved did not live up to specifications! There is nothing personal; in it, by comments made in the post above it has descended from an observation to play ground name calling, is this the man you wish to do business with?

    Ask you self this

    gilgamesh
    hello,

    #1 I never called anyone a name.
    #2 I never saw your post on here, I was simply replying to what "mlwood" said. he said person "A" said my dyes suck because I would not let them exclusively carry it. I said don't let it get you down.
    #3 I never said either side was right as I have no clue about the case. I simply was offering mlwood advice
    #4 Please point out once instance where I called anyone a "playground name" and I will gladly retract the comment from my post

    He said the person in question was using an early mix of the dye. He said these dyes were never sold at retail. I based my comments to him on his word being true. Next time you read a post please absorb it before claiming "playground name calling". This will be my last reply on the subject because I don't care to hijack the thread. Regards

    gilgamesh
    Have i approched many of you freinds for funding .. Lol. now you makeing me laugh. Please prove me prof of this and allso while your at it if i asked for funding why did i refuse wcpcs when they asked it i whated finacal help with bottles ect ect. Infact once agian you lying and trying to big up you self.

    My buness model is unlike any other im doing it for no profit .. i personly like it that way. And if you were a good relaible reviewer id proably listen to what you have to say but seeing as your not and you like to review pre production samples and slag them off i think that just says it all. how ever im sure youll be trusted now by many companys as a reviewer.

    and who are these many freinds .. please tell me as even i would like to know my self.

    As for the premix that you got from wcpcs fancy me showing you a email pre december saying that the pre mix was pulled due to problems .... lol... and just this week your reviewing them. 2 months after the email was sent and receved.

    not only is you review a joke so are your lies.

    @ TechloGoblin - mate i listend and totaly agree. I sure there are compnays climbing all over him for reviews of there Pre production samples that were never released to the public.
