![]() I am looking for a unit as i have been just using culligan bottled water from my local store. It measures 001 on my TDS meter, but i think getting my on with RI would be better. Thoughts? I am on a budget and found this one on e-bay, any feedback or thoughts?

![]() thanks to both of you. Urbanhellfire, what did you end up buying? If i buy Ro water from the water store and then ru nit through a DI like the one JL sells, would that essentially be the same thing? I guess the hard part would be to pressurize the water going to the DI unit as it seems to be set up for a tap. Guess i answered my own question.
What are good units that are reasonably priced? I am not adding to a sump, just into a 5 gal bucket once per week to do my water changes.
