I doubt the MCMHU would be considered a mini-tank water heater . . . as I understand these they attempt to reduce problem attaining
a) uniform water temp delivered
b) volume deliverable on demand
by maintaining 2 to 6 gallons at (or near) use temp, but at the same time make use of tankless style heating to provide fast recovery (compared to most tanked units' slower recovery). This lets the mini-tanked avoid the larger part of the heat loss from stored heated water.

If the tankless you mentioned at the firestation is electric I would certainly be interested in knowing its brand ! Seriously, I am shopping and not finding a good choice yet . . . if fact I am close to considering gas ! The "hybrid" electrics (pre-heat with heat-pump technology) are too expensive imo considering they do not seem to have extended lifespan/guarantee).
