Vertex has a new unit out, 100gpd with built in tds and boost pump, pretty fancy unit but a little pricy at $369.00

The vertex is a really good unit. It uses far less water than most other units. The built in TDS meter is cool. I know Aquatic Addictions has one.

Yeah Albert at Proline was telling me about these today. Apparently for every gallon produced you waste around 1.15 gallons. That's a ton better than my old Aquasafe. And being on a water meter will factor into my decision to buy this or a cheaper unit when I'm ready.

Seems by using a variable flow restrictor can get this with other RO units (had my Aquasafe to close to 1:1) but at the cost of membrane life.
