I pulled the trigger today and bought a pair of these single reactors from J&L

FYI, the adapter in the pic (next to the valve) is for connecting the included 3/8" ridgid line directly to a maxi-jet. The 3/8" - 1/2" quick connect adapter pushes right on the pump output

I don't have any reactors so cannot comment on the flow required.
However if you use the reducer, from 1/2 to 3/8 then the flow from the maxijet will be throttled down.

The reduced flow is OK to work with
As it stands, I'm using a pair of MJ 600s on my current TLF 150s and have a Tee and valve on each as it's too much flow and the Carbon and GFO would get beat to crap at full flow

There'll be a post in my build after these are running
