I am going to be purchasing a dual chamber reactor. BRS has one for $65 but would need about $30 in parts to mod it to allow for individual flow control to each canister. The Spectapure is already set up for this for $90. My only concern is the Spectrapure unit doesn't "show" the cartridges like the BRS has. I like the simplicity of the cartridge design. Does anyone have the Spectrapure reactor that can tell me if it has cartridges? I just know if it's not simple to maintain I'll procrastinate. Thanks
 
After much research I went with the Spectrapure dual reactor. It is the best bang for bang for the buck. The BRS would likely be very comparable with the addition of a couple mods. Simple all-inclusive design sold me on SpectraPure! Just hooked it up and it was super simple to dial in!
