Glenn, Try setting the white balance on the camera, that should help with the color. Dave

Tony, I am interested if it is still available. I am in Dutchess county not far from Katonah. You can reach me at 914-262-7336. Dave

No updates, but it has not appeared in the size that it had. Every once in a while I see a small piece an inch or so floating about. I guess it will just be one of those questions that we will find an answer to some day. Dave

I have been using the exact system for about 9 months and couldn't be more pleased. Until the TDS reads above 0 on the output you don't not need to change the resin. I make about 25 gals a week. Beats chasing down to the LFS for water changes. Dave
