Re: Koolance's Response to Hardware Labs "The Copper Radiator Myth"
well, once we get test results from TC and HWlabs we will have more information to conclude performace.

the 2 things i do not like are:

1. Water temperature
2. Air Flow

The test was consistent for all rads so the actual performance of the Koolance rad can be seen coming out on top.

However, what will the results look like at say 120CFM and 40C coolant temperature at 10GPM?

I am compelled to perform my own test.

The lab seems to have used conditions beyond extreme, potentially to exaggerate the flaw in Copper/Brass construction. I do see some valuable information here and more testing is needed.
