Only have time for one comment as I have a client meeting and will be traveling most of the day tomorrow. San Diego to Tampa is a hell of a trip
Regarding the PBR. The cause of leak has been remedied. The plastic tubing which was being used all this time was actually two half pieces of tubing which were mended together. The leaks were occuring at the seams of the two pieces. This is not the first time it has leaked and BEHL had contacted the manufacturer who advised that the improved tubing would not leak. Well, as we know, it did. The team continues to work with the backyard PBR which was operating without issue and without any leaks when I was there (the leaky components were replaced, albeit with similar tubing). Color was absolutely green, although not as dark as Tuesday (or whatever day that was)
Solution: A new manufacturer has provided BEHL with samples of seamless plastic tubing. The parts are manufactured in the U.S. and I was permitted to handle both the old and new tubing. The new tubing is an obvious visual upgrade from the previous. I actually tried to damage or tear it but to no avail. Based on the thorough explanation from the team at BEHL coupled with my handling of both the old and new versions of the tubing, I am confident that problem has been remedied. I know we all have money in this, but think about how devastated the BEHL team must have been when learning that the seams in the tubing had started to give. The new tubing is stronger and has no seams. Problem solved.
We need to remember that BEHL is developing this technology and will understandably have to learn some things thru trial and error. We are on the cusp of something big here. Be happy you are here, and be aware of those with conflicting agendas.
