    Question regarding the usage of O3 (ozone generators) to keep water clean

    ozone generators are used all the time in hot tubs. Mine has one. That being said, I've got no pro or con evidence as to effectiveness. You still have to monitor and use chlorine. Furthermore, the dealer actually said they help a little but didn't seem impressed with them. He said they normally...

    Solas Amita vs OEM (Yamaha)?

    It's part of a mercury smartcraft system. The tach was worth the install. But I like operating stats, kinda good knowing the best cruising rpm range. And I was just showing, merc, solas...didn't matter.... Actually was hoping the 15.5 diameter of the solas was gonna get me the extra 200 rpm...

    something new coming in electric OB

    I just said that further discussion would bring in a forbidden topic. And a further comment of mine, which is a significant component of the whole picture, was edited out. Which is fine with me. Spend your money as you see fit, don't spend mine. ( meant for dingbat)
