  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Lighter Fuel.....Just a thought...

I know that the guys in the know say to always use at LEAST triple filtered butane fuel. I noticed now they even have fuel thats been filtered 5 times....

Here's the thought: I wonder why the fuel manufacturers don't get it right the first time. If they have to filter it 5 times, it seems to me like their original process is screwed up......Just a thought...

Might be that there are different levels of filtration?
Start with the big stuff and work down to smaller and smaller particles?

Well, it could just be marketing hype, but typically you reduce a percentage of impurities each time you refine, but I think after 3 times it gets pretty negligible, but then again I am no chemist.

That's what they say about Vodka, 3 is good.
