I do believe the concept was to manufacture a low cost solution. But as we all know the prototype PBR was an assembly of home depot commercial grade plumbing materials and of course the assortment of agricultural storage containers. They identified the highest cost component of such a horizontal system which was the tubing. Using high grade poly type hard tubing was the largest cost, by using a thin membrane that was durable enough to withstand operational and environmental conditions for a commercial grade period of time.

Fact is when the initial tubing was used after trying to upgrade to commercial grade components specifically made for the BEHL PBR it was found the cheap .17 per linear foot tubing was substandard, and could not deal with the operational conditions required. As we know the seams split and the constant rupturing and leaks caused by both the tubing and turns showed exactly what had happened here. There was never a commercial grade product developed and shareholders were basically buying shares to not only pay for a scam but to take what was a generic idea and try to turn into reality.

Plenty of examples exist of products that were never really intended to be sold. This is one of those products, just look at the process and what was really happening. Too many flags popped when you had legitimate businesses and people walking away from this. That is just the PBR side of the business.

It did seem like a good working system. It was a cheap entry level system constructed with off the shelf parts. Except for improving the durability of the tubing, I saw little value in the rest of the upgrades. For a large multi-acre farm automation would be helpful but that could have been offered as an aftermarket upgrade. The hallmark of a good system is simplicity.
