Mark, I really have no clue as to who this guy is. In his conclusion, he
says, "In reality, I am an Electrical Engineer with no qualifications in the
area of filtration analysis. However, I have eyes and some common sense,
which has proven to be enough to accomplish what I set out to do."
Based on what I saw, there are a lot of great filters out there.
Personally, I think most things today are over analyzed. 30 years ago I
never had the benefit of this data (and wouldn't have cared if I did) and my
LBC's did just fine.
IMHO, they must all do a sufficient job based on normal usage.
I'd say make your own judgment on the validity of the data and use it, or
dismiss it. Don't think it will make a difference either way.
Just my .02.
Safety Fast!
